Angular resource custom post method - angularjs

Question

I need to post data to a SharePoint list, and I want to clean up my code by using
a resource factory, until now I have posted data like this:
this.save = function(data) {
data["__metadata"] = { "type": getItemTypeForListName('ListName') };
var restQueryUrl = appweburl + "/_api/lists/getByTitle('ListName')/items";
$.ajax({
url: restQueryUrl,
type: "POST",
headers: {
"accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
"X-RequestDigest": $("#__REQUESTDIGEST").val(),
"content-Type": "application/json;odata=verbose"
},
data: JSON.stringify(data),
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
},
error: function (error) {
alert(JSON.stringify(error));
}
});
};
And so far my resource factory looks like this:
myApp.factory('Entry', function($resource) {
return $resource(appweburl + "/_api/lists/getByTitle('ListName')/items", {}, {
get: {
method: 'GET',
headers: { "Accept": "application/json; odata=verbose" },
url: appweburl + "/_api/lists/getByTitle('ListName')/items?$select=Id,Title,Description&$filter=ID eq :ID"
},
query: {
method: 'GET',
headers: { "Accept": "application/json; odata=verbose" },
url: appweburl + "/_api/lists/getByTitle('ListName')/items?$select=Id,Title,Description"
}
})
});
How can I 'convert' my save function to a resource method?

Answer 1

Okey, so I was easier than I thought, what I had to do was run the function 'getItemTypeForListName' before calling the save function, this adds the metadata needed to save to sharepoint. And in my resource factory add this:
save: {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
"accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
"X-RequestDigest": $("#__REQUESTDIGEST").val(),
"content-Type": "application/json;odata=verbose"
}
}
And then in my controller call it like this:
$scope.test = new Entry();
$scope.test.Title = 'testTitle';
// function to set metadata
$scope.test["__metadata"] = { "type": getItemTypeForListName('ListName') };
Entry.save($scope.test);
