Re: Help With Getting HTTP Server running

its the problem from your end... not mine...

this is how i want to do it...

again, get the idea of "public webservice api" out of your head...

this will be an internal method for off-platform dev's within our org to
pull data from our LSAMS database...

Oh wait, are you still trying to put the payload in the URI itself instead
of standard input when doing a POST?

That's the problem.

How are you reading it in? That's what I'm probably "missing" haha.

If you're using the YAJL function, or even just QtmhRdStin, I've never
seen the data encoded as a POST.

well i just tried doing a POST instead of a GET with the exact same
criteria and it came across encoded as well...

so something you are missing Brad...

but I am good from here - thanks to all that helped me with this.

here is how i'm going to deal with it so that the front end guy is

not

burdened with it...

in my rpgle pgm..

EVAL jsonINP
jsonINP =

....5...10...15...20...25...30...35...40...45...50...55...60

1 '%7B%22env%22:%22D3X%22,%22command%22:%22GET_L'
61

'OAN_BORROWER%22,%22payload%22:[%7B%22loanNumber%22:2428%7D]%'

121 '7D


jsonINP = %scanrpl('%7B'
:'{'
:jsonINP);

jsonINP = %scanrpl('%7D'
:'}'
:jsonINP);

jsonINP = %scanrpl('%22'
:'"'
:jsonINP);

and wala...

EVAL jsonINP
JSONINP =

....5...10...15...20...25...30...35...40...45...50...55...60

1

'{"env":"D3X","command":"GET_LOAN_BORROWER","payload":[{"loan'

61 'Number":2428}]}


sometimes just not worth the risk of leaving it up to others.. and
considering the fact i'm using a rather unorthodoxed way with this

whole

process I better assume that responsibilty...

now last thing is to have the YAJL produce back out the generate

json

output and I'm done!

thanks Bradley - still not quite what i'm looking for...

i think i may just about have it with the SK yahlserver setup...

so I can now reach my endpoint...

my iseries YAJL pgm gets called but there seems to be some

encoding

going

on that is throwing off my json string...

This is what I'm calling from ARC using the GET method...

/rest/wsr00000/{"env":"D3X","command":"GET_LOAN_BORROWER","payload":

[{"loanNumber":2428}]}

in debug over on the i, I get this interpretation of it...

EVAL l_url
L_URL =

....5...10...15...20...25...30...35...40...45...50...55...60

1

'/rest/wsr00000/%7B%22env%22:%22D3X%22,%22command%22:%22GET_L'

61

'OAN_BORROWER%22,%22payload%22:[%7B%22loanNumber%22:2428%7D]%'

121 '7D

how can I preserve the original string format of the json input?

Ive tried enclosing the json input string in single quotes but

no

luck.

I've also tried an escape version of the string with no luck...
{\"env\":"D3X",\"command\":\"GET_LOAN_BORROWER\",\"payload\":
[{\"loanNumber\":2428}]}


any suggestions? almost there!

Jay
