In my application, I utilize a custom $resource service to manage CRUD operations for entities over HTTP. The service is simply wrapped in a custom service without additional functionality:
app.factory('coursesService', ['$resource', coursesService]);
function coursesService($resource) {
return $resource('/api/courses/:id', {
id: '@id'
}, {
update: {
method: 'PUT'
}
});
Attempting to delete an instance in the controller (stored in courseToDelete):
this.courseToDelete.$remove()
To simulate backend behavior, I make use of the $httpBackend service from the ngMockE2E module:
$httpBackend.whenDELETE(/api\/courses\/(.+)/, undefined, undefined, ['id'])
.respond(function(method, url, data, headers, params) {
clientStorage.deleteCourse(params.id);
return [200, {}];
});
When a DELETE request is sent via $resource, I intend to remove it from local storage (as there is no actual backend, data is stored as serialized JSON):
The object being deleted:
{
id: 1,
name: 'Course 1',
duration: 380,

}
Although all other parameters appear correct, when the function runs, the params parameter is unexpectedly undefined instead of containing the expected id property. Any insights on what might be incorrect in this setup?
