.controller('myCtrl', function($http, $httpParamSerializerJQLike) {
$http({
  method: 'POST',
  url: baseUrl,
  data: $httpParamSerializerJQLike({
    "user":{
      "email":"wahxxx@gmail.com",
      "password":"123456"
    }
  }),
  headers:
    'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
})})
