Hell I ma new in angular 5. I am create a login and auth service. But i cannot compile my code. Here is my code
// user.service.ts
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Http, Headers } from '@angular/http';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/map';
@Injectable()
export class UserService {
private loggedIn = false;
constructor(private http: Http) {
// this.loggedIn = !!localStorage.getItem('auth_token');
}
//authenticate user with dummy logic because i use a json-server
authenticate(login:string, password:string) {
console.log('Authenticate ....');
const credentials = {login:login, password:password};
let headers = new Headers();
headers.append('Content-Type', 'application/json');
var result = this.http
.get(
'/users?login?'+JSON.stringify(login),
{ headers }
);
if(result.password==password){
return true;
}
return false;
}
}
When i compile ( ng server ) i get the following error
ERROR in src/app/auth/user.services.ts(28,17): error TS2339:
Property 'password' does not exist on type 'Observable<Response>'.
Line 28 is : if(result.password==password){
I don't know what i am missing ?I try to understand the Observable concept. If you add an idea, it will help me. Thanks

result
here is an observable, you need to subscribe to it to get response.
Something like below:
var result = this.http.get(
'/users?login?'+JSON.stringify(login),
{ headers }
);
//result is an observer here, you have to subscribe to it
result.subscribe((response) => {
if(response.password==password){
return true;
}
return false;
});

Observables
properlyHttpClient
, not old Http
User
class to make typing more strict. // user.service.ts
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/map';
@Injectable()
export class UserService {
private loggedIn = false;
constructor(private http: HttpClient) {
// this.loggedIn = !!localStorage.getItem('auth_token');
}
//authenticate user with dummy logic because i use a json-server
authenticate(login:string, password:string) :Observable<boolean> {
return this.http
.get('url/whatever') //returns a User object having password
.map(user => user.password === password); // maps result to the desired true or false value
}
}
// to consume the service from a component, for example
this.userService.authenticate('myusername', 'mypassword')
.subscribe(authenticated => {
console.log('login status', authenticated)
})

You are trying to access the observable returned from the http call. To get the information in the observable you have to subscribe to it.
For detailed information about hot to get remote data please read this: https://angular.io/guide/http
NOTE: You should not use the deprecated angular/http. Use angular/common/http instead.
