Use jQuery promise

[jamesfoster]

Hi

First off I wanna say I really like the idea of HAL and this generic rest client. I've been looking for something like this for a while.

There are some improvements to this project I'd like to make. I might end up writing a variant of this but thought I'd share my ideas and see what you thought.

Instead of (or as well as) using callbacks, return the jQuery promise from $.ajax()

This would allow the following:

agent.get()
  .then(myFn)
  .then(myFn2)

Good idea to return the promise! If you have a fork/pullrequest ready, I am very happy to merge it.

I'm just thinking out loud. I'm not at my machine to test this but will look at it in the next few weeks.
