title: Ionic 2 / Laravel 5.2 communication with the API
body: <p>Im a mega newbie at Ionic 2 and Angular 2, but i have quite a bit of background in PHP.</p>
  
  <p>I have built my API in Laravel 5.2, at the moment, i have a login URL as follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://www.website.com/api/v1/login
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Which obviously returns a token if login is successful.</p>
  
  <p>I have also built a form in ionic 2 using CSS and HTML, which is in the default /app/pages/home/home.html</p>
  
  <p>What i want to do is make the login form actual communicate with the API but i cant find any examples on how to do this in Ionic v2.0.0-beta.32</p>
  
  <p>All i want to do is redirect to a blank page if successful or display an alert if it fails.</p>
  
  <p>I would love if someone could give me a bit of a helping hand.</p>
  
  <p>Respect.</p>
