Angular 2, Observable : http.post, http.get

I have a few problems concerning Http.post and Http.get with Observables. I'm a student and I'm trying to write a simple WebApp and a Server.

I want to post a boolean on my Server if I press a button. The post process does work but everytime I press the button I subscribe another time to the observable. I had the same problem with my http.get method and resolved the problem with this code.

getdata() {   
if(this.subscribtion2 === null){
        this.isValid = false;
      this.subscribtion2 = this.service.get2().subscribe(

         daten => {
            this.jsonobj = daten;
            this.message = 
                [
                this.jsonobj.data.message1,
                ];
            console.log('subscribe')
            ;
            this.myModelneu = this.message[0];     
             },     
         err => this.handleError(err),
         () => console.log('Simple GET completed')
            );

    }else
   {
       this.isValid = true;
       console.log('unsubscribe')
       this.subscribtion2.unsubscribe();
       this.subscribtion2 = null;

   }
}

The get2() method is in a different class.

  get2() {


        return Observable.interval(3000)
          .switchMap(() => this.http.get('http://127.0.0.1:3000/daten/2'))
          .map(res => res.json())

  }

I don't think that is the common way but I can't find another. My http.post look likes this :

post(json: boolean) {
      console.log('post executed');
      console.log(JSON.stringify(json));

     return this.http.post('http://127.0.0.1:3000/login', { json })
     .subscribe();

   }

I tried to understand the tutorials with Observables but I did not find how to post data on the server without subscribing to the Observable.

Thanks for your help!

The http calls, specifically get and post return an observable that completes with the result, hence you don't need to unsubscribe. On completion the subscription is terminated.
