Angular - Use Scope Variable in Service URL

Question

Currently, I want to get data from the API by sending some search parameters using the AngularJS service. In my ng model, I have a variable called search, and I would like to use this variable as a parameter for the API URL.

My first (unsuccessful) approach was to use the $ scope.search variable directly inside the service:

$http.get('http://www.omdbapi.com/?s='+ $scope.search +'&type=series&r=json').then(function(data){
     deferred.resolve(data);
});

I read that transferring the $ scope to the service is not possible (and should not be done anyway), so how can I use the scope variable as a parameter in the service, is there also a cleaner way to set the parameters besides adding a line myUrl + search?

full code:

 myApp.service('showsService', function($http, $q){
    var deferred = $q.defer(); //promise to say 'im going to do this later'
    $http.get('http://www.omdbapi.com/?s=sherlock&type=series&r=json').then(function(data){
        deferred.resolve(data);
    });
    this.getShows = function(){
        return deferred.promise;
    }
    });

    myApp.controller("showsController", function($scope, showsService){
    $scope.$watch('search', function() {
      fetch();
    });

    function fetch(){
        var promise = showsService.getShows();
        promise.then(function(data){
        $scope.showsResult = data.data.Search; //using the name than comes back from the API
    });
    }
    });

Answer 1

search :

myApp.service('showsService', function($http){
    this.getShows = function(search){
        var url = 'http://www.omdbapi.com/s='+search+'&type=series&r=json';
        var promise = $http.get(url);
        return promise;
    };
});

:

myApp.controller("showsController", function($scope, showsService){
   $scope.$watch('search', function(value) {
      fetch(value);
   });

   function fetch(search){
       var promise = showsService.getShows(search);
       promise.then(function(response){
           $scope.showsResult = response.data.Search;
       });
    };
});

$q.defer, $http .

Update

$http :

myApp.service('showsService', function($http){
    this.getShows = function(search){
        //var url = 'http://www.omdbapi.com/s='+search+'&type=series&r=json';
        var url = 'http://www.omdbapi.com/'
        var config = { 
            params: { 
                s: search,
                type: 'series',
                r: 'json'
            }
        };
        var promise = $http.get(url, config);
        return promise;
    };
});

Answer 2

var getShows = showsService.getShows($scope.search);
getShows.then(function(resposne){
    console.log(resposne.data);
})

myApp.service('showsService',['$http',function commonSrv($http) {
this.getShows=function(search)
      {
        var promise = $http({
          method: 'post',
          url: 'http://www.omdbapi.com/',
          data:{"s":search, 'type':'series'},
          contentType:'application/json; charset=UTF-8',
        });
        return promise;
      };
}]);
