I am beginner in that, but
I have a restful web service and i want to send a http get request from it and handle the response in it. if any one knows how can i do this ?
i tried this :
#Context private HttpServletRequest servletRequest;
#Context private HttpServletContext servletContext;
but i want to know what's this injection will return to me? i don't understand how will get it and it's scope, and how to get the response?!
and how i will send the request?
i found this http client apache
and here is an example for sending an Get request and getting the response
http://www.mkyong.com/java/apache-httpclient-examples/
String url = "http://www.google.com/search?q=httpClient";
HttpClient client = HttpClientBuilder.create().build();
HttpGet request = new HttpGet(url);
// add request header
request.addHeader("User-Agent", USER_AGENT);
HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);
System.out.println("Response Code : "
+ response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode());
BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(response.getEntity().getContent()));
StringBuffer result = new StringBuffer();
String line = "";
while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) {
result.append(line);
}
i'll try and post any helpful edits i reach, anyone have another helpfull comments or edits please do.

if I do a simple HTTP GET request with e.g. POSTMAN then in the response there's an element called 'entity_id'.
e.g. https://www.facebook.com/yourFacebookName
If however, I do the request from a simple C# app then the following code doesnt return the 'entity_id' element in the response and I cant figure out why?
Code from app:
string html = string.Empty;
string url = string.Format("https://www.facebook.com/{0}", "yourFBName");
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
request.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip;
using (HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse())
using (Stream stream = response.GetResponseStream())
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
html = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
if (html.Contains("entity_id"))
{
//do some stuff
}
Anyone know why its dropping the 'entity_id' element, but returning it when hitting that url from POSTMAN etc?
I have implemented a REST service using Spring Integration.
When I try to access the service manually using main function, It is working fine.
I also tested the service using REST Client in Google Chrome and that worked. But the service is coming back with responseCode 404 on WebSphere server. So I am facing the issue when I deploy the code on higher environment.
URL u = new URL("http://localhost:8080/MyApplication/testRestService");
URLConnection uc = u.openConnection();
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) uc;
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
connection.setRequestProperty("Accept","*/*");
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
OutputStream out = connection.getOutputStream();
Writer wout = new OutputStreamWriter(out);
//helper function that gets a string from a dom Document
String input = jsonInput;
wout.write(input.getBytes());
wout.flush();
wout.close();
// Response
int responseCode = connection.getResponseCode();
Is is dependent on server, so its coming back with response code 404 ? Do we need any server side configuration ?
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Why do you use different ContentType for URLConnection and for httpClient?
Show, please, your REST service config: 404 means Not found. Therefore you use (or don't) some options in request which makes it non-matching for the server's RequestMapping.
I tried with Apache HTTP Client and the code is working on WebSphere now. Still I am not able to find the reason why java.net.HttpURLConnection was not working on WebSphere.
Please find my updated code below :
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = null;
HttpPost postRequest = null;
StringEntity inputEntity = null;
HttpResponse response = null;
try{
//RETREIVE WEB SERVICE URL FROM DB
String callbackURL = "http://localhost:8080/MyApplication/testRestService";
httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
postRequest = new HttpPost(callbackURL);
String inputData = request.toString();
inputEntity = new StringEntity(inputData);
inputEntity.setContentType("application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
postRequest.setEntity(inputEntity);
response = httpClient.execute(postRequest);
if (response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode() != 201 && response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode() != 200) {
throw new RuntimeException("Failed : HTTP error code : "+ response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode());
}
//System.out.println("HTTP Response Code :"+response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode());
LOGGER.debug("HTTP Response Code :"+response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode());
httpClient.getConnectionManager().shutdown();
}catch(IOException ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
throw ex;
}finally{
httpClient.getConnectionManager().shutdown();
httpClient = null;
postRequest = null;
inputEntity = null;
response = null;
}
I am new to web based solutions. I am hitting a rest url using RestSharp library.
My code is as follows:
var cleint = new RestClient("http://REST_URL");
cleint.Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator("username", "password");
var request = new RestRequest();
request.Method = Method.GET;
request.Resource = "0.json";
IRestResponse response = cleint.Execute(request);
if (response != null && ((response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK) &&
(response.ResponseStatus == ResponseStatus.Completed)))
{
// var arr = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<JArray> (response.Content);
}
The url returns a json file, when I hit it manually. But I want to use a C# console application to get the json file and save it to the disk. I am getting an unauthorized response when I run the above mentioned code:
response.ResponseStatus= "Unauthorized"
This is all it needed..
client.Authenticator = new NtlmAuthenticator();
So if your IIS settings have Windows Authentication set as enabled, this is what you are going to need, Http Basic authentication is not enough to by pass the server security
I am generating my web service using ws-import to connect to an aspx service that I have secured with Kerberos on IIS.
I am able to connect and authenticate fine when I just connect to the service using a SOAPConnection
final SOAPConnection conn = SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance().createConnection();
try {
final MessageFactory msgFactory = MessageFactory.newInstance();
final SOAPMessage message = msgFactory.createMessage();
final MimeHeaders headers = message.getMimeHeaders();
if (spnegoToken != null) {
headers.addHeader("SOAPAction", "http://tempuri.org/HelloWorld");
headers.addHeader("Authorization", "Negotiate " + Base64.encode(spnegoToken));
}
message.getSOAPBody().addBodyElement(new QName("http://tempuri.org/", "HelloWorld", "tem"));
final SOAPMessage response = conn.call(
message, "http://server:9994/WebService/SampleService.asmx");
return response.getSOAPBody().getTextContent();
} finally {
conn.close();
}
However I am unable to add an Authorization header to the JAXWS generated WS in the same way:
final SampleServiceSoap sss= new SampleService().getSampleServiceSoap();
((BindingProvider) sss).getRequestContext().put(
"Authorization", "Negotiate " + Base64.encode(spnegoToken));
return sss.helloWorld();
I get a 401 error as the token as I cannot see the token attached in Wireshark.
Can anyone point me at the approach I should take?
Cheers,
Barry
Sorted, turns out I was pretty close:
final Map<String, List<String>> headers = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();
headers.put("Authorization", Collections.singletonList("Negotiate " + Base64.encode(tgt)));
((BindingProvider) sss).getRequestContext().put(MessageContext.HTTP_REQUEST_HEADERS, headers);
I am working in a Windows Phone 8 PCL project. I am using a 3rd party REST API and I need to use a few HttpOnly cookies originated by the API. It seems like getting/accessing the HttpOnly cookies from HttpClientHandler's CookieContainer is not possible unless you use reflection or some other backdoor.
I need to get these cookies and send them in subsequent requests otherwise I am not going to be able to work with this API - how can I accomplish this? Here is what my current request code looks like:
Thanks in advance.
//Some request
HttpRequestMessage request = new HttpRequestMessage();
HttpClientHandler handler = new HttpClientHandler();
//Cycle through the cookie store and add existing cookies for the susbsequent request
foreach (KeyValuePair<string, Cookie> cookie in CookieManager.Instance.Cookies)
{
handler.CookieContainer.Add(request.RequestUri, new Cookie(cookie.Value.Name, cookie.Value.Value));
}
//Send the request asynchronously
HttpResponseMessage response = await httpClient.SendAsync(request);
response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
//Parse all returned cookies and place in cookie store
foreach (Cookie clientcookie in handler.CookieContainer.GetCookies(request.RequestUri))
{
if (!CookieManager.Instance.Cookies.ContainsKey(clientcookie.Name))
CookieManager.Instance.Cookies.Add(clientcookie.Name, clientcookie);
else
CookieManager.Instance.Cookies[clientcookie.Name] = clientcookie;
}
HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient(handler);
The HttpOnly cookie is inside the CookieContainer, it's only that is not exposed. If you set the same instance of that CookieContainer to the next request it will set the hidden cookie there (as long as the request is made to the same site the cookie specifies).
That solution will work until you need to serialize and deserialize the CookieContainer because you are restoring state. Once you do that you lose the HttpOnly cookies hidden inside the CookieContainer. So, a more permanent solution would be using Sockets directly for that request, read the raw request as a string, extract the cookie and set it to the next requests. Here's the code for using Sockets in Windows Phone 8:
public async Task<string> Send(Uri requestUri, string request)
{
var socket = new StreamSocket();
var hostname = new HostName(requestUri.Host);
await socket.ConnectAsync(hostname, requestUri.Port.ToString());
var writer = new DataWriter(socket.OutputStream);
writer.WriteString(request);
await writer.StoreAsync();
var reader = new DataReader(socket.InputStream)
{
InputStreamOptions = InputStreamOptions.Partial
};
var count = await reader.LoadAsync(512);
if (count > 0)
return reader.ReadString(count);
return null;
}
There is also a second possibility - to manually go through response headers, grab and then parse Set-Cookie headers using a bunch of custom code.
It looks something like that, when you are going to match and save a single PHPSESSID cookie (assume LatestResponse is your HttpResponseMessage containing website response):
if (LatestResponse.Headers.ToString().IndexOf("Set-Cookie:") != -1) try
{
string sid = LatestResponse.Headers.ToString();
sid = sid.Substring(sid.IndexOf("Set-Cookie:"), 128);
if (sid.IndexOf("PHPSESSID=") != -1)
{
settings.Values["SessionID"] = SessionID = sid.Substring(sid.IndexOf("PHPSESSID=") + 10, sid.IndexOf(';') - sid.IndexOf("PHPSESSID=") - 10);
handler.CookieContainer.Add(new Uri("http://example.com", UriKind.Absolute), new System.Net.Cookie("PHPSESSID", SessionID));
}
} catch (Exception e) {
// your exception handling
}
Note this code inserts the cookie to CookieContainer for that object's life unless manually deleted. If you want to include it in a new object, just pull the right setting value and add it to your new container.
