How to use session with angularJS - php

Question

I'm working with AngularJS and PHP backend, and I'm trying to display data of authenticated user, and I have 2 views, one 'login.html' and the other 'info.html', 2 controllers (one for the login function and the other for selecting the user's data) . I implement the authentication phase but for the second step I want that when the user authenticates, it will be redirected to other view (info.html) where all the information of this user will be displayed.
I tried to use session,but it doesn't work and I don't know why.
How can I store user's data from login function and use it in the second controller(second web service)
login.php
<?php
session_start();
$data = json_decode(file_get_contents("php://input"));
$connect = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "user");
if(count($data) > 0)
{
$Email=mysqli_real_escape_string($connect, $data->Email);
$mdp=mysqli_real_escape_string($connect, $data->mdp);
$query = 'SELECT * FROM `client` WHERE (EmailClient = "'.$Email.'" AND mdp= "'.$mdp.'")';
$q = mysqli_query($connect , $query);
if(mysqli_num_rows($q) > 0 )
{
$token = md5($Email.time()."51395+81519851");
$query = "UPDATE client SET token = '".$token."' WHERE EmailClient = '".$Email."'";
mysqli_query($connect , $query);
$_SESSION["logged_in"] = true;
$_SESSION["token"] = $token;
;
$result['message'] ='Logged In';
$result['email'] =$Email;
$result['token'] = $token;
$resultstring=json_encode($result);
$resultstring=str_replace("null", '""', $resultstring);
echo $resultstring;
exit;
}
$result['code'] = 603;
$result['message'] ='The username or password are incorrect!';
$resultstring = json_encode($result);
$resultstring = str_replace("null",'""',$resultstring);
echo $resultstring;
exit;
}
?>
info.php
<?php
session_start();
$connect = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "user");
$output = array();
$query = "SELECT FirstName,FamilyName,EmailClient FROM client WHERE token = '".$_SESSION['token']."'";
$result = mysqli_query($connect, $query);
if(mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0)
{
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))
{
$output[] = $row;
}
echo json_encode($output);
}
?>
loginCtrl
app.controller('loginCtrl', function($scope, $location,$state,$http,$window){
$scope.submit = function()
{
data = {
'Email' : $scope.Email,
'password' : $scope.password
};
$http.post('http://localhost/deb/login.php', data)
.success(function(data, status, headers, config,result)
{
console.log(data);
$state.go('info');
}
})
.error(function(data, status, headers, config, result)
{
console.log('error');
});
}
});
infoCtrl :
app.controller('infoCtrl', function($scope, $http,$state,$filter){
$scope.loadColis = function(){
$http.get("http://localhost/deb/info.php")
.success(function(data){
$scope.names = data;
});
}
I don't know how get user authenticated data, how can I do please?
Thanks in advance

You need to create a session when the login function is passed without any error, like given below, you have to use $sessionstorage service in controller for this to work.
$http.post('http://localhost/deb/login.php', data)
.success(function(data, status, headers, config, result) {
console.log(data);
//Here create a session, so I am creating a "user" session with its details
$rootScope.globals = {
currentUser: {
firstname: data.firstname,
lastname: data.lastname,
}
};
$sessionStorage.user = $rootScope.globals;
$state.go('info');
}
})
And then you can get details of the user on info page using $sessionStorage.user.currentUserand again you will need $sessionStorage service in its controller also.
