angularjs - $resource, what's the difference between get and query?

Question

The documentation doesn't seem to specify: http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ngResource.$resource

question from:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19455803/resource-whats-the-difference-between-get-and-query

Answer 1

The main difference lies in query having isArray: true :

'get'  :  {method:'GET'},
'query':  {method:'GET', isArray:true}

This means you would use get when requesting a single object, and query when requesting a collection. For example:

Users.get({userId:123}); // returns a single user
Users.query(); // returns a collection of all users.
