Re: [Dspace-tech] URL REST Call to return XML

[Hicham Zahnan]

Hi Peter,

At first I thought the problem was only because DSpace is not returning XML. 
Then found out, no HTTP header was being passed when requesting the URL in the 
Drupal module. It looks like that want be our only problem.
Thank you for the clarification, we are going to update the module to import 
data using REST.

Thank you all for your help.
Hicham

Hi Hicham,

Princeton's Drupal module for DSpace is not compatible with the current version 
of DSpace. The Drupal Module is designed to use the 2011 Google Summer of Code 
REST API. The 2011 GSoC REST API was never merged into the core of DSpace, 
instead a Jersey based REST API was built. So, the Drupal Module would need to 
be updated to work with the new API.

it allows you to configure request headers...

Hi,

My problem is when I use the REST URL i.e. 
(www.abcd.com/rest/communities/6/items<http://www.abcd.com/rest/communities/6/items>),
 into a browser I sometimes get JSON or XML, depending on the browser. Because 
its returning a JSON, its causing the module not to work. So is there a way to 
only get XML through http REST request?

We are using DSpace 5.2

Thank you,

Re: [Dspace-tech] URL REST Call to return XML

[Bruno Zanette]

Hicham,
Good Question...

The only method i know that fix it is the one that Alan said. The request
is made directly by URL or there is a middleware between your app and the
browser?

Re: [Dspace-tech] URL REST Call to return XML

[Alan Orth]

You need to set the Accept HTTP header to tell the REST API which format
you want. From the command line you can do it like this:

$ curl -s -H "Accept: application/xml"
http://localhost:8080/rest/communities

I'm not familiar with the DSpace module for Drupal though, so I'm not sure
if it allows you to configure request headers...

[Dspace-tech] URL REST Call to return XML

[Hicham Zahnan]

Hi,

I'm using a Drupal Module called DSpace, that requires a REST URL to return XML.
My problem is when I use the REST URL i.e. 
(www.abcd.com/rest/communities/6/items),
 into a browser I sometimes get JSON or XML, depending on the browser. Because 
its returning a JSON, its causing the module not to work. So is there a way to 
only get XML through http REST request?

We are using DSpace 5.2

Thank you,
Hicham
