Hi,
I've just started using Restlet 2.0.7. I'm trying to build a REST API. But I'm
facing problem with declaring a method which accepts POST request which has
content type - application/xml.
Following is my method which processes POST request:
------------------
@Post
public Representation create(Representation r)
{
Representation rep = null;
try{
if(MediaType.APPLICATION_XML.equals(r.getMediaType()))
{
System.out.println("XML received of size:" + r.getSize() + ",and
available size: " + r.getAvailableSize() + ", and content: " + r.getText() + ",
byteChannel: " + r.getChannel() + ", inputStream: " + r.getStream());
rep = new
StringRepresentation(Configuration.parseXml(r.getStream()),MediaType.APPLICATION_XML);
}
else
{
setStatus(Status.CLIENT_ERROR_BAD_REQUEST);
rep = new StringRepresentation("Invalid Data in POST. XML expected.",
MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN);
}
return rep;
}
-------------------
Now the problem is when I test this API using Firefox REST plugin with the
following XML data in the body:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<config>
<system name="something"></system>
</config>
I get the following output:
XML received of size:125,and available size: 125, and content: null,
byteChannel: null, inputStream: null.
It seems that though the method is getting the size of the POST data correctly,
its not able to get the content(String or InputStream) from the Representation.
Am I missing something here??
How do I get the XML content which is sent to this REST API??
Thanks,
Soumik
