In this tutorial, i will be explaining how to fetch data from the mysql database via angularjs via GET ajax call. I will be using angularjs $http service to get data from the mysql database with php. Note: create a mysql database, with students table having two fields Name(varchar), Roll(int). Also insert some values. Copy the following contents to their respective file & you are done.

index.html

<!doctype html>
<html ng-app="fetch">
  <head>
    <title>AngularJS GET request with PHP</title>
    <link
      rel="stylesheet"
      href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/css/bootstrap.min.css"
    />
    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.24/angular.min.js"></script>
  </head>

  <body>
    <br />
    <div class="row">
      <div class="container">
        <h1>Angular $http GET Ajax Call</h1>
        <div ng-controller="dbCtrl">
          <input type="text" ng-model="searchFilter" class="form-control" />
          <table class="table table-hover">
            <thead>
              <tr>
                <th>Name</th>
                <th>Roll No</th>
              </tr>
            </thead>
            <tbody>
              <tr ng-repeat="students in data | filter:searchFilter">
                <td>{{students.Name}}</td>
                <td>{{students.Roll}}</td>
              </tr>
            </tbody>
          </table>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </body>

  <script>
    var fetch = angular.module('fetch', []);

    fetch.controller('dbCtrl', [
      '$scope',
      '$http',
      function ($scope, $http) {
        $http
          .get('fetch.php')
          .success(function (data) {
            $scope.data = data;
          })
          .error(function () {
            $scope.data = 'error in fetching data';
          });
      },
    ]);
  </script>
</html>

fetch.php

<?php
//database settings
$connect = mysqli_connect("hostname", "username", "password", "dbname");

$result = mysqli_query($connect, "select * from students");

$data = array();

while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
  $data[] = $row;
}
    print json_encode($data);
 ?>
