Username and password authentication in angular

I am trying to deploy a flask+angular app, where flask is hosted on a Digital Ocean ubuntu server.

The api is based on this guide.

In curl I can confirm it works by: curl -u <username>:<passwd> -i -X GET https://<server>

I try to obtain the same in angular using http:

$http.get('https://<server>', {username: <user>, password: <password>}) .then(function(response){ console.log(response.data});

Results in a 401 UNAUTHORIZED

I hope you can help me here.

You can use post methods instead of get to send data 

$http.post('https://<server>', 
    {username: <user>, password: <password>})
    .then(function(response){
        console.log(response.data);
    });

and in serve get by req.body.username. I assume server side is 'node.js' that's why used 'req.body'.

then also need post method in server side to accept your post request for your url.

OR

If you want to use get method then you can send data as a params like

var config = {
 params: {username: <user>, password: <password>},
 headers : {'Accept' : 'application/json'}
};

$http.get('https://<server>', config).then(function(response) {
   // process response here..
   console.log(response.data);
 });
