I'm having a problem doing simple REST API operations using the curl utility.
Using the simplest example shown here, everything works as expected: $ curl -X PUT --anyauth --user admin:admin 'http://localhost:8005/v1/documents?uri=/example/recipe&format=json' \ > -d'{"recipe":"Apple Pie", "fromScratch":true, "ingredients":"The Universe"}' This adds a document into my database with URI /example/recipe. I can use the query console to find this document and inspect its contents, as shown here: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <json type="object" xmlns="http://marklogic.com/xdmp/json/basic";> <recipe type="string">Apple Pie</recipe> <fromScratch type="boolean">true</fromScratch> <ingredients type="string">The Universe</ingredients> </json> Next, I'm trying to do the same operation, except I don't want to type the document contents into the curl command (soon the documents will be too long for that). Instead, I want to tell curl to read the document data contents out of a file. My new curl command is this: $ curl -X PUT --anyauth --user admin:admin 'http://localhost:8005/v1/documents?uri=/example/recipe&format=json' \ > -d...@pie.txt And the file pie.txt contains this: {"recipe":"Apple pie", "fromScratch":true, "ingredients":"The Universe"} When I execute this curl command, I get the following error: <rapi:error xmlns:rapi="http://marklogic.com/rest-api "><rapi:status-code>500</rapi:status-code><rapi:status>INTERNAL ERROR</rapi:status><rapi:message-code>XDMP-JSONCP</rapi:message-code><rapi:message>XDMP-JSONCP: xdmp:from-json("&#xfeff;{&quot;recipe&quot;:&quot;Apple pie&quot;, &quot;fromScr...") -- Unexpected codepoint: 65279 on line 1. See the MarkLogic server error log for further detail.</rapi:message></rapi:error> Can somebody help resolve this error?
