@Narretz : This was labelled $http but it relates to ngResource

[Narretz]

Thx, fixed. Have you checked why your CLA couldn't be verified?

[connorbode]

I had submitted the CLA right before submitting the pull request -- I'm assuming it hadn't been processed yet. It's verified now though.

And the Travis build errors are really odd. All tests failed with

Message: timeout: timed out after 30000 msec waiting for spec to complete Stacktrace: undefined 

I was able to build fine. If you have access to Travis can you re-run the build?

[Narretz]

I think Travis is a real pain at the moment. Can't do anything about it. I added a 'needs review' label, so hopefully maybe someone will look it over (although I noticed the origin issue has been labelled Purgatory)

[connorbode]

thx

So, the main issue here (from my perspective) is that we have no way of ensuring that user-provided path values are "sane", and it becomes the application's responsibility. That's probably fine, but it's something that should be noted in the docs.

I am not keen on the way this public API looks, but I can't really think of anything better for it.

Have to see what API owners think about it though

I think this is why / is encoded in the first place. I can make a note of it in the docs.

Who are the "owners"?

Usecase: HAL

var Resource = $resource(':href', {href: '@_links.self.href'}, {put: {method: 'PUT'}}, {encodeSlashes: false}) var user = new Resource({username: 'example', _links: {self: {href: '/user/1'}}}) user.$put()

What is the status quo on this PR?

[toddb]

+10 - please, please, can we have this sorted. It has been around since 2012 in #1388 (as pointed out up the top)

[connorbode]

I don't think anything is happening with this version of angular anymore.
All the focus is on angular 2
