TypeScript and Angular Services

Question

When writing services in TypeScript for AngularJS do you define a model for the request and the response?

So for example, given the following service call into a RESTFul endpoint from the service:

module Application {
    export module Services {
        export class MyService {
            public static $inject = ["$http"];

            constructor(private $http: ng.IHttpService) {
            }

            getSomeData = (model: Models.RequestModel): ng.IPromise<Models.ResponseModel> => {
                this.$http.post("url", model).then((response: ng.IHttpPromiseCallbackArg<Models.ResponseModel>) => {
                    return response.data;
                });
            }
        }
    }
}

So basically I am sending the RequestModel and receiving back the ResponseModel

Would that be the proper use/syntax?

Yes. Request in, promise to Response out.

So do I need to use the Models I am using or is that overkill? Does this look like a good solution/pattern? Thanks!!

IMHO using the module keyword is generally an overkill : github.com/TypeStrong/atom-typescript/blob/master/docs/out.md You can put interfaces in a global namespace in a non external module and use external modules everywhere else

Could you provide an example of the above in the way that you feel is the right way to write it? You dont have ti use modules?
