How to display timeout error in angular js $http calls?

I am making an ajax call using $http in angular js. I have implemented timeout in it. But I want to show the user an error message if the connection times out. The following is the code..

$http({
            method: 'POST',
            url: 'Link to be called',
            data: $.param({ 
                    key:Apikey,
                    id:cpnId
                }),
            timeout : 5000, 
            headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'}
            }).success(function(result){
               alert(result);
            }).error(function(data){
              alert(data);
            });

Is there any way so that I can display the user if the connection is timed out. Is there any way so that it can be configured at one place?

You can use angular interceptor to achieve this.

$httpProvider.responseInterceptors
.push(['$q', '$injector','$rootScope', function ( $q, $injector,$rootScope) {
 return function (promise) {
    return promise.then(function (response) {
        return response;
    }, function (response) {
        console.log(response); // response status
        return $q.reject(response);
    });
  };
 }]);
}]);

And if you want to do someting when connection timed out for every request, you can use interceptors (global timeout param doesn't work) :

// loading for each http request
app.config(function ($httpProvider) {
    $httpProvider.interceptors.push(function ($rootScope, $q) {
        return {
            request: function (config) {
                config.timeout = 1000;
                return config;
            },
            responseError: function (rejection) {
                switch (rejection.status){
                    case 408 :
                        console.log('connection timed out');
                        break;
                }
                return $q.reject(rejection);
            }
        }
    })
})

You just need to check the response status and that's it :

}).error(function(data, status, header, config) {
      if (status === 408) {
          console.log("Error - " + status + ", Response Timeout.");
      } 

});

For global HTTP timeout, take a look at this answer
