I am posting some dictionarty data to Web2py, Certain data POSTS
consistently succeed, and certain data POSTS consistently fail. Both
return <Response 200>, but the second data dictionary fails to post, with
no error / exception raised.
This data consistently succeeds to POST:
data = {"batt chrg": {
"dat": "-999%",
"measurement": "percent",
"unit": "electric",
"entrytype": "subunitStatus"
},
"pv gen": {
"dat": "-999 W",
"measurement": "level",
"unit": "electric",
"entrytype": "subunitStatus"
}
}
This data (longer dictionary) consistently Fails to POST:
data = {"download": {
"entrytype": "subunitStatus",
"dat": "9 Mbit/s",
"measurement": "level",
"unit": "comms"},
"batt chrg": {
"entrytype": "subunitStatus",
"dat": "94.4%",
"measurement": "percent",
"unit": "electric"},
"pv gen": {
"entrytype": "subunitStatus",
"dat": "543 W",
"measurement": "level",
"unit": "electric"},
"living space": {
"entrytype": "subunitStatus",
"dat": "72 F",
"measurement": "level",
"unit": "hvac"},
"ping": {
"entrytype": "subunitStatus",
"dat": "60 ms",
"measurement": "level",
"unit": "comms"},
"invert load": {
"entrytype": "subunitStatus",
"dat": "402 W",
"measurement": "level",
"unit": "electric"},
"humidity": {
"entrytype": "subunitStatus",
"dat": "45%",
"measurement": "level",
"unit": "hvac"},
"upload": {
"entrytype": "subunitStatus",
"dat": "8 Mbit/s",
"measurement": "level",
"unit": "comms"
}
}
Client-side python code:
import requests
from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth
from datetime import datetime
import json
auth=HTTPBasicAuth('LoginID', 'Password')
unitid = '19700111'
uploaded = 'no'
data = {
'unitid': unitid,
'uploaded': uploaded,
'time_stamp': str(datetime.now()),
'data_list': json.dumps(data),
}
rq = requests.post(
"https://XXXXX.pythonanywhere.com/XXX/default/api/packed_data.json";,
data=data,
auth=auth,
headers={'Connection':'close'}
)
Here is the (standard) server-side Web2py code:
def api():
response.view = 'generic.'+request.extension
def GET(*args,**vars):
patterns = 'auto'
parser = db.parse_as_rest(patterns,args,vars)
if parser.status == 200:
return dict(content=parser.response)
else:
raise HTTP(parser.status,parser.error)
def POST(table_name,**vars):
return db[table_name].validate_and_insert(**vars)
def PUT(table_name,record_id,**vars):
return db(db[table_name]._id==record_id).update(**vars)
def DELETE(table_name,record_id):
return db(db[table_name]._id==record_id).delete()
return dict(GET=GET, POST=POST, PUT=PUT, DELETE=DELETE)
