Angular scope not updating to factory value

I created a very simple factory

angular.module('vpmClient')

.factory('DatosFactory', function($http){
    var datos = {};
    datos.data = [];

    datos.getDatos = function(){
        $http.post('php/dataHandler.php',{action:"get_datos"}).success(function(data){
            datos.data = data;
        });
    };

    datos.getDatos();

    return datos;
})

And in the Controller i set the value from "datos.data" to a scope variable

angular.module('vpmClient')

.controller('DatosController', function($http,$scope,DatosFactory){
    $scope.datos = DatosFactory.data;
    $scope.datoSeleccionado = {};

    $scope.getDatos = function(){
        console.log(DatosFactory.data);
        return DatosFactory.data;
    }

    $scope.mostrarDato = function(dato){
        //$scope.datoSeleccionado = dato;
        //Magia
    }
});

I need that the value of "scope.datos" updates once the post from the factory ends

Notes: I did a console.log from the factory (inside the success) and it gives me the Object correctly, also, in the controller i created a function to return the factory's value from the browser console and it also works, but when i console.log "scope.datos" it returns an empty object.

Sorry for my bad english

Just return the promise from $http to the controller

angular.module('vpmClient').factory('DatosFactory', function($http){
var datos = {};
datos.data = [];

datos.getDatos = function(){
    return $http.post('php/dataHandler.php',{action:"get_datos"});
};

return datos;
})

And in the controller you call the service

angular.module('vpmClient').controller('DatosController', function($http,$scope,DatosFactory){



$scope.datos = DatosFactory.data;
$scope.datoSeleccionado = {};

$scope.getDatos = function(){
  DatosFactory.getDatos()
  .then(function(httpResponse){
    console.log(httpResponse.data);
    $scope.datoSeleccionado = httpResponse.data;
  })
}
});

You need to use the then keyword:

$scope.getDatos = function() {
    DatosFactory.getDatos().then(function(data) {
        $scope.datos = data;
    });
}
