I am not able to translate the curl command into ruby rest-client
curl 'http://localhost:8080/../attachments' -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" -H "CMD-Authorization: xxxx" -X POST -F attachment='{"_description":"this is test";type=application/json' -F file=#/root/Desktop/rest/saturn.bin
The main problem regards the "type=application/json" in the form attachment.
My code is:
require 'base64'
require 'rest-client'
require 'json'
....
file1=File.new('/root/Desktop/rest/saturn.bin','rb')
response =RestClient.post("#{uri}",
{
:attachment=>'{"_description":"this is test";"type"=>"application/json"}',
:file=>file1,
},{:cmd_authorization=>"#{#session_id}"})`
I tried other code combination adding for example :content_type=>"application/json" in the header unsuccessfully. Thanks for the support.

One of my projects returns token codes using an HTTP query so users easily can get and renew them if desired. I found one article where the author uses CURL queries to my host.
For example:
curl -k -H 'Authorization: Bearer SQ43OPLR79BIQQFN50PA6KI8MVJ77JT685V0S9TTRNNA6RO41DTA6FK7NR1H466C' -H 'User-Agent: api-test-agent' https://api.hh.ru/employers/2062418
It works and returns a JSON object.
I need an OpenURI-based query. How can I change this CURL command to a simple OpenURI call?
The equivalent request through open-uri is:
require 'open-uri'
puts open('https://api.hh.ru/employers/2062418',
'Authorization' => 'Bearer SQ43OPLR79BIQQFN50PA6KI8MVJ77JT685V0S9TTRNNA6RO41DTA6FK7NR1H466C',
'User-Agent' => 'api-test-agent'

This is a cUrl command I want to do in Ruby
curl --get 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json' --data 'screen_name=example' --header 'Authorization: OAuth oauth_consumer_key="example", oauth_version="1.0"' --verbose
So far I only know how to GET requests using Net::HTTP but these don't have headers and data like the cUrl command above.
It would be great if someone could tell me how to GET in Ruby with headers and data.
If you don't mind using additional GEMS, try UniRest
I have been able to query rally analytics API using DHC(Dev HTTP Client) with the following POST request
http://rally1.rallydev.com/analytics/v2.0/service/rally/workspace/1234/artifact/snapshot/query.js&API_Key=key123
and body
{
"find": {
"ObjectID": 4321
}
}
Is there any way I can do this from Ruby? I have using 'rest-client' but am only getting errors endlessly (400, 403, ....)
Has anyone been able to do this ?
Is this possible using curl?
It's possible using both curl and ruby. You need to set a ZSESSIONID header value equal to your API Key. Curl example here (randomized Workspace OID and API Key):
curl -X POST \
'https://rally1.rallydev.com/analytics/v2.0/service/rally/workspace/12345678910/artifact/snapshot/query' \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H 'ZSESSIONID: _m31qjdm43Ou74h0cACk28zgBUOPm50Xtna2PhQ2L22' \
--data '{"find":{"FormattedID": "DE9", "__At": "current"},"fields":true,"start":0,"pagesize":10,"removeUnauthorizedSnapshots":true}' \
--compressed
It is fairly straightforward to do in Ruby also. The following Gists:
Rally Lookback Connection Helper
Rally Lookback Query Example
Contain a Ruby connection helper for connecting to Rally's Lookback API. The second Gist contains an example of using the connection helper along with a hash representing a find query object. The Ruby example uses httpclient gem as opposed to rest-client gem, but the concept is the same.
Has this API changed ? We had a change in our username recently and since then, running the Query example returns {"_rallyAPIMajor":"2","_rallyAPIMinor":"0","Errors":["Not Found"],"Warnings":[]}
for all the queries.
Follow the instruction in Paypal Developer 'make your first call':
curl https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/oauth2/token \
-H "Accept: application/json" \
-H "Accept-Language: en_US" \
-u "EOJ2S-Z6OoN_le_KS1d75wsZ6y0SFdVsY9183IvxFyZp:EClusMEUk8e9ihI7ZdVLF5cZ6y0SFdVsY9183IvxFyZp" \
-d "grant_type=client_credentials"
It is working and get the expected result like the instruction states, but I prefer to use ruby curb gem:
require 'curl'
paypal_result = Curl::Easy.http_post("https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/oauth2/token", "grant_type=client_credentials") do |http|
http.headers['Accept'] = "application/json"
http.headers['Accept-Language'] = "en_US"
http.username = "EOJ2S-Z6OoN_le_KS1d75wsZ6y0SFdVsY9183IvxFyZp:EClusMEUk8e9ihI7ZdVLF5cZ6y0SFdVsY9183IvxFyZp"
end
puts paypal_result.body_str
However I got the following:
{"error":"invalid_client","error_description":"The basic auth authorization header cannot be decoded"}
It is an error for sure, but what's wrong with my curb syntax? Any idea?
I can't tell you exactly what's wrong, but I can tell you how to see what's happening. Try putting it into verbose mode, so you can see what data and headers are actually being sent:
curl = Curl::Easy.new
# Make it verbose, prints to stderr
curl.verbose = true
paypal_result = curl.http_post("https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/oauth2/token", "grant_type=client_credentials") do |http|
# etc.
end
You can compare with the CLI version by using the -v flag.
Hope that helps you discover the difference.
I have a configuration parameter called "testing" in one of my build configurations in TeamCity. After taking a look at the TeamCity REST API doc here I could get information about this parameter using the following cURL command line commands on Windows:
(1) curl -X GET -H "Authorization: Basic (...)" http://teamcity:8080/httpAuth/app/rest/buildTypes/id:bt7/parameters
(2) curl -X GET -H "Authorization: Basic (...)" http://teamcity:8080/httpAuth/app/rest/buildTypes/id:bt7/parameters/testing
Response:
(1) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?><property name="testing" value="11"/></properties>
(2) 11
But then, when I try to update this "testing" build parameter using the following command, I get an error message:
curl -X PUT -d "1" -H "Authorization: Basic (...)" http://teamcity:8080/httpAuth/app/rest/buildTypes/id:bt7/parameters/testing
Response:
Error has occurred during request processing (Unsupported Media Type).
Error: javax.ws.rs.WebApplicationException
Not supported request. Please check URL, HTTP method and transfered data are correct.
I already successfully use a similar command to update the buildNumberCounter setting of the same build configuration:
curl -X PUT -d "1" -H "Authorization: Basic (...)" http://teamcity:8080/httpAuth/app/rest/buildTypes/id:bt7/settings/buildNumberCounter
That's why I thought I can do the same with a build parameter in a similar way. What am I missing here?
UPDATE:
I managed to update the "testing" build parameter with value "1" using Fiddler. The request I composed had the following content:
Request: PUT
URL: http://teamcity:8080/httpAuth/app/rest/buildTypes/id:bt7/parameters/testing
Request headers: Authorization: Basic (...)
Request body: 1
So the problem with my cURL command above is probably somewhere around the -d "1" option. But where?
UPDATE 2:
I'm not sure if that makes any difference, but I use this cURL build on Windows 7.
Instead of fixing the failing cURL command, as a workaround, we use now Node.js to compose and send the REST request to TeamCity.
The script that needs to be fed to node.exe is as follows:
// Equivalent cURL command:
// curl -X PUT -d "1" -H "Authorization: Basic (...)" http://teamcity:8080/httpAuth/app/rest/buildTypes/id:bt7/parameters/testing
var http = require('http'),
options = {
hostname: 'teamcity',
port: 8080,
path: '/httpAuth/app/rest/buildTypes/id:bt7/parameters/testing',
method: 'PUT',
headers: { 'Authorization': 'Basic (...)' }
},
req;
req = http.request(options, function(res) { });
// write data to request body
req.write('1');
req.end();
Although the workaround works perfectly, I would still like to know what's wrong with the above cURL command?
For parameters that are non-XML like the one you are asking about, just add:
--Header "Content-Type: text/plain"
For parameters that are XML then you'll want to switch that to:
--Header "Content-Type: application/xml"
I was having a hard time figuring this out too but I found the answer. Instead of using -d and -H at the front. Use --data and --header at the end as shown below . I found this in the TeamCity docs buried in a "click to expand" example.
Set build number counter:
curl -v --basic --user <username>:<password> --request PUT http://<teamcity.url>/app/rest/buildTypes/<buildTypeLocator>/settings/buildNumberCounter --data <new number> --header "Content-Type: text/plain"
Set build number format:
curl -v --basic --user <username>:<password> --request PUT http://<teamcity.url>/app/rest/buildTypes/<buildTypeLocator>/settings/buildNumberPattern --data <new format> --header "Content-Type: text/plain"
I guess the REST API expect XML as input, add
-H "Content-type:text/xml"
and put XML as input. If you have a XML file file.xml :
curl -d "#/path/to/file.xml" -H "Content-type:text/xml" (...)
