I need help writing CouchDB TypeScript classes with AngularJS http service. My call is successful in the happy path, but I'm struggling to retrieve the status code or JSON error information from the server, which is crucial for user feedback.
public createDb(name: string, callback: Function) {
let url = this.urlPrefix + name;
let cbData: CouchStatus = new CouchStatus;
this.http.put(url).then((response: any) => {
cbData.httpStatus = response.status;
if (response.data.ok === true) {
cbData.ok = true;
} else {
cbData.ok = false;
cbData.error = response.data.error;
cbData.reason = response.data.reason;
}
callback(cbData);
}, (httpError: any) => {
cbData.ok = false;
cbData.httpStatus = httpError.status;
cbData.error = httpError.data;
console.log("createDb: " + cbData.error);
});
}
When using CouchDB, I receive a "400 Bad Request" status.

The response body contains:
{
"error":"illegal_database_name",
"reason":"Name: 'fooBar'. Only lowercase characters (a-z), digits (0-9),
and any of the characters _, $, (, ), +, -, and / are allowed. Must begin
with a letter."
}
Thank you
