Re: [naviserver-devel] Content-Type application/json request

[Gustaf N. <ne...@wu...>]

Dear Maksym,

one can access the content of a PUT/POST request via "ns_getcontent".
Just get the content and parse content e.g. into a dict.

-gn

============================
if {[ns_conn method] in {PUT POST}
     && [ns_set iget [ns_conn headers] Content-Type] eq "application/json"
} {
     package req json

     set dict [json::json2dict [ns_getcontent -as_file false]]
     ns_return 200 text/plain $dict\n
     
} else {
     ad_return_complaint 1 "unsupported HTTP method: [ns_conn method]"
}
============================

Test:
curl --header "Content-Type: application/json" --request POST --data '{"username":"xyz","password":"xyz"}'http://localhost:8100/json-receiver.tcl
