HTTP Client

Priority: P1 (HIGH)

Principles

• Functional Interceptors: Use HttpInterceptorFn. Class-based interceptors are deprecated.
• Typed Responses: Always type http.get<User[]>().
• Services: Encapsulate all HTTP calls in Services. Never call http in Components.

Guidelines

• Caching: Implement caching in interceptors or using shareReplay(1) in services.
• Error Handling: Catch errors in services or global interceptors, not components.
• Context: Use HttpContext to pass metadata to interceptors (e.g., specific caching rules).
