How can log-in using $http.post?

IONIC CONTROLLER

.controller('LoginCtrl', function($scope, $ionicPopup, $state, $http) {
    $scope.data = {};

    $scope.login = function() {
        $http.post('https://mywebsite/login', $scope.email) THIS PART IS TOTALLY WRONG
        .success(function(data) {
            $state.go('improvements');
        }).error(function(data) {
            console.log(data)
            var alertPopup = $ionicPopup.alert({
                title: 'Login failed!',
                template: 'User/Password is Wrong'
            });
        });
    }
})

I’m trying to login in a web site using an ionic APP, so I used inspect element in form log-in from the website that i want login and I got this:

WEB that I want login

    <label for="session_email">Email</label>
    <input class="form-control" type="email" name="session[email]" id="session_email">

    <label for="session_password">Password</label>
    <input class="form-control" type="password" name="session[password]" id="session_password">

    <label class="checkbox inline" for="session_remember_me">
        <input name="session[remember_me]" type="hidden" value="0"><input type="checkbox" value="1" name="session[remember_me]" id="session_remember_me">
        <span>Remember me on this computer</span>

Anyone could help me ? and I’m so sorry for this newbie question

you should send an javascript / json-object with email and password like

{
  email: $scope.email,
  password: $scope.password
}

Inspect your network traffic, to check the repsonse of your backend in chrome --> use F12-key on keyboard and click on network tab.

Search the forum for “authentication”, this is a frequent topic that has been covered many times.

.controller('LoginCtrl', function($scope, $ionicPopup, $state, $http) {
    $scope.data = {};

    var user = {
                email: $scope.email,
                password: $scope.password
                }
    $scope.login = function() {
        $http.post('https://mywebpage/login', user)
        .success(function(data) {
            console.log(data)
            $state.go('improvements');
        }).error(function(data) {
            console.log(data)
            var alertPopup = $ionicPopup.alert({
                title: 'Login failed!',
                template: 'User/Password is Wrong'
            });
        });
    }
})

Is it correct ? I dont think so , could you explain me how create a Json-object?
and thank you so much

look in the angularjs documentation:
https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$http

The first code example show the usage of .get and .post… and there is also an object with parameters created like you did it…

what is going wrong?

the server is returning: “POST https://mywebsite/login 422 (Unprocessable Entity)”

Use the browser dev tools to trace your request content and copy it here.

https://mywebsite/login

You’re missing the most important part of the log for your kind of error: the request body.

Thats all I found, Are you talking about form-data ?
