I'm having a little trouble getting the correct observable type from an http.get request. Here is the function I'm having trouble on:
getMovie(title:string, year:number): Observable<Movie> {
const params = new HttpParams()
.set('title', title)
.set('year', year.toString());
return this.http.get(this.moviePath, {params})
}
As you can see I want to receive and Observable of the class Movie
from my backend api using the parameters 'title'
and 'year'
. The problem is that the reponse always comes back with the type Observable<Object>
and not Observable<Movie>
.
I'm aware that I could create a new Movie instance giving it the properties recieved from the list. The problem with that is that my movie class has properties that are optional. Here is my movie class:
export class Movie {
title:string;
year?:number;
imdb?:string;
trailer?:string;
reviewClip?:string;
reviewSummary?:string;
reviewScore:number;
createdAt?:Date;
bestWeek:boolean;
bestMonth:boolean;
}
Does anybody know an easy way to get the response to be of the type Observable<Movie>
instead of Observable<Object>
