Question

There is an equivalent in angular, here is a link to a jsfiddle with an example implementation: http://jsfiddle.net/dmcquillan314/boo5tn62/

The function on line 11 is an example of how to send a request to a rest api:

$scope.sendToResource = function() {}

To enable this feature just change the function in the directive to point to this factory and it will send a request to the api url configured in the factory.

In order to test this with an api you'll have to change the factory to match your server

here are some links to relevant documentation:

https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ngResource/service/$resource

https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/directive/ngSubmit

https://docs.angularjs.org/api/auto/service/$provide

Let me know if anything is unclear or you require any further explanation. Hopefully this should help you get started.
