Processing $http response in service

Question

I recently posted a detailed description of the issue I am facing here at SO. As I couldn\'t send an actual $http request, I used timeout to simulate asynchrono

Answer 1

Related to this I went through a similar problem, but not with get or post made by Angular but with an extension made by a 3rd party (in my case Chrome Extension).
The problem that I faced is that the Chrome Extension won't return then() so I was unable to do it the way in the solution above but the result is still Asynchronous.
So my solution is to create a service and to proceed to a callback

app.service('cookieInfoService', function() {
    this.getInfo = function(callback) {
        var model = {};
        chrome.cookies.get({url:serverUrl, name:'userId'}, function (response) {
            model.response= response;
            callback(model);
        });
    };
});

Then in my controller

app.controller("MyCtrl", function ($scope, cookieInfoService) {
    cookieInfoService.getInfo(function (info) {
        console.log(info);
    });
});

Hope this can help others getting the same issue.
