Dude!!! Thanks a lot!!! It worked like expected...
Just for the record, in case someone face this problem.
I set it up like suggested:
def POST(*args, **vars):
if (some_controller_method(vars['entry_value'])):
print "The Output"
print str(vars['entry_value'])
else:
do_something_else()
Using curl in terminal used something like this:
curl --user [email protected]:thepass -d "entry_value=the_value"
http://127.0.0.1:8000/appname/default/api/entries.json
Output at server terminal instance debugging messages, in case web2py.py
was executed in terminal.
The Ouptut
the_value
As followed in:
http://www.web2pyslices.com/slice/show/1534/restful-services-with-curl-andor-python
Suddenly I raised a doubt... Which one is better secure practice, the POST
API function with the auth required and subsequent functions for the server
to do... Or, customized methods that catch the raw info via XML for
example. Which one is in security context, better.
P.D: Sorry if it bothers, but how can someone distinguish between explicit
or implicit JSON usage? I ask this because of the HTTP protocol and its
relation with JSON usage, headers, processed info, tools that process
information as XML, JSON, etc... And as we can se here and in the tutorial
showed, the only thing related with JSON is the final part of the URL.
Peace for all of you fellows! C:
