Setting application wide HTTP headers in AngularJS

Question

Is there a way to set the $httpProvider headers outside of angular.module('myApp', []).config()?

I'm getting an Auth-Token from the server after I login the user, and I need to add it as a HTTP Header to all following requests.

$http.defaults.headers.common['Auth-Token'] = 'token';

It seems headers() normalizes the key names.

	Can you elaborate on what you mean by normalizes the key names? – Webnet Apr 16 at 15:40
	When getting the headers using the headers() method, the key "Auth-Token" gets lowercased and becomes "auth-token". Which is confusing. – lucassp Apr 17 at 8:06
