AgularJS Return Value From AJAX

Vote count:

Ok, so I have a service with a function that does an HTTP request and the value returned is set to $scope, however this does not work because it seems $scope is not waiting for the AJAX call. How would I go about returning an AJAX result from a service function outside the controller?

Example:

//Controller
app.controller('Controller', function($scope, $http, Service){

    // $scope WILL NOT BE SET TO THE VALUE RETURNED, the returned value is UNDEFINED
    $scope = Service.getData();

}


// Get server data from service function
app.service('Service', function ($http){

    this.getData = function(){
        //Get server data

       return { data: result }
    }
}
