As Kris mentions, you can use the $resource service to interact with the server, but I get the impression you are beginning your journey with Angular – I was there last week – so I recommend to start experimenting directly with the $http service. In this case you can call its get method.
If you have the following JSON
[{ "text":"learn angular", "done":true },
{ "text":"build an angular app", "done":false},
{ "text":"something", "done":false },
{ "text":"another todo", "done":true }]
You can load it like this
var App = angular.module('App', []);
App.controller('TodoCtrl', function($scope, $http) {
$http.get('todos.json')
.then(function(res){
$scope.todos = res.data;
});
});
The get method returns a promise object which
first argument is a success callback and the second an error
callback.
When you add $http as a parameter of a function Angular does it magic
and injects the $http resource into your controller.
I’ve put some examples here
