getting error login with lb-service angular StrongLoop SDK

Question

I follow this tutorial to create login using StrongLoop: http://docs.strongloop.com/display/DOC/AngularJS+JavaScript+SDK

Somehow I get this kind of error message on console browser:

TypeError: Object function Resource(value){
        shallowClearAndCopy(value || {}, this);
      } has no method 'login'

Answer 1

Is login method for user model? Or by another model like customer/agent? So, if you want to use login method on customer/agent model you must use model extend user. http://docs.strongloop.com/display/LB/Model+definition+reference#Modeldefinitionreference-Extendingamodel

Answer 2

Can you confirm you have generated a lb-services.js file that contains a User factory with the login method?

You should see something like the following:

    "login": {
      url: urlBase + "/users/login",
      method: "POST",
      interceptor: {
        response: function(response) {
          var accessToken = response.data;
          LoopBackAuth.currentUserId = accessToken.userId;
          LoopBackAuth.accessTokenId = accessToken.id;
          LoopBackAuth.rememberMe = response.config.params.rememberMe !== false;
          LoopBackAuth.save();
          return response.resource;
        }
      }
    },

Can you confirm that? If you see this code is in the lb-services file then you should check and confirm you are includinging it in your app correctly.

Answer 3

The problem might be, that you have no User model.

Also, can you provide 2 pieces of code? the code, which calls login() and the code from lb-services.js, which describes it
