Hi,
Is it possible to create a new object of a custom class using the RESTful API?
The documentation page only lists the following POST method, which
doesn't accept a class name:
/wikis/{wikiName}/spaces/{spaceName}/pages/{pageName}/objects[?start=offset&number=n]
I have tried things like the following:
curl -u Admin:admin -X POST -H "Content-type: text/plain" -H "Accept:
application/xml" -d "@test.xml"
http://localhost/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/Test/pages/Test/objects/XWiki.TestClass
Where test.xml contains some variation on:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<properties xmlns="http://www.xwiki.org";>
<property type="com.xpn.xwiki.objects.classes.TextAreaClass" name="Text">
<attribute value="Text" name="name"/>
<attribute value="Test" name="prettyName"/>
<attribute value="0" name="unmodifiable"/>
<attribute value="0" name="disabled"/>
<attribute value="100" name="size"/>
<attribute value="10" name="rows"/>
<attribute value="" name="customDisplay"/>
<attribute value="Text" name="editor"/>
<attribute value="6" name="number"/>
<attribute value="0" name="picker"/>
<attribute value="" name="validationMessage"/>
<attribute value="" name="validationRegExp"/>
<value>
This is some text.
</value>
</properties>
Curl returns this:
<html>
<head>
<title>Status page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h3>The method specified in the request is not allowed for the resource identifi
ed by the request URI</h3><p>You can get technical details <a href="http://www.w
3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.4.6">here</a>.<br>

</p>
</body>
</html>
Simpler syntax without the XML file still fails for me. In fact, I
can't seem to even get the basic "create object" method to work, even
without the class. For example:
curl -u Admin:admin -X POST
http://localhost/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/Test/pages/Test/objects
Just comes back with a "malformed syntax" error.
Is there an example anywhere of how to do this?
Thank you,
Aaron
