Angular 2 (Angular 4) – Http Client and the In Memory Web API

In this video we first take a look at the HttpClient service that is part of the Angular 2 framework. We modify our PlayerService to now use this service instead of just returning data that is in memory.

We also take advantage of another external package called “Angular In Memory Web API” to emulate the web server (We will build a full web server in the next video). You can read more about this from their Github repository at https://github.com/angular/in-memory-web-api.

To follow along with this video clone the git repository below and checkout to the “beforeHttp” branch. The final product for this video is in the “Promises” branch.
