400 Bad Request Nestful Ruby - ruby

I'm trying to use the Pocket API to authorize my application. So I'm using Nestful to send HTTP requests. And everytime I try sending a request I get a 400 Bad Request. The Pocket documentation says that it could be that it's either a missing consumer key or a missing redirect url.
But now I'm looking at the network tab in Chrome and it says that there is a 500 Internal Service Error. What are these things, and how can I fix them?
My code:
require "nestful"
require "sinatra"
require "uri"
get '/' do
params = {
:consumer_key => '******************************',
:redirect_uri => 'http://localhost:4567/callback'
}
response = Nestful.post 'https://www.getpocket.com/v3/oauth/request',
:params => params,
:format => :json
response.body
response.headers
end
get '/callback' do
"hello world"
end

So I got help on my problem. It turns out that params was already a hash, and so I did not need to say :params => params because that would be redundant.
Before
response = Nestful.post 'https://www.getpocket.com/v3/oauth/request',
:params => params,
:format => :json
After
response = Nestful.post 'https://getpocket.com/v3/oauth/request',
params,
:format => :json

In ruby with sinatra, How to get I response with get method on rest client?

I use ruby with sinatra and I used rest-client on import for payment.
I got token that string typed through post method on specific url: '... /users/getToken'.
Using this token, I wanna get payments information with get method on this url:
get_url = 'https://api/iamport.kr/payments/'+imp_uid
the detail codes are below,
def get_paymentsdetails(token, imp_uid)
get_url = 'https://api.iamport.kr/payments/'+imp_uid
response = RestClient.get get_url, :data => {}.to_json, :accept => :json, :headers => {'Authorization' => token}
json = JSON.parse(response, :symbolize_names => true)
# json = JSON.parse(response.to_json, {:symbolize_names => true})
return json
end
However, I got 401 unauthorized error on this part of code.
response = RestClient.get get_url, :data => {}.to_json, :accept => :json, :headers => {'Authorization' => token}
After I access get_url with specific imp_uid, I got this page,{"code":-1,"message":"Unauthorized","response":null}
I checked parameter token and imp_uid of get_paymentsdetails function have valid string values,, so How can I access response parameter??
I think that there are some problems on response = RestClient.get get_url.... code.
Thanks.
Method 'get' from the 'RestClient' class return some object with attributes. So response have few values. Which of them do you need? Access to them you can get by their names, its described here.
In your case, after response = RestClient.get get_url... you should have variable response and ability to call response.headers, response.code or response.body.
But im afraid that you have some problems with autorization, which means that imp_uid or token is not correct. Thats why remote server sended to you responce with http-code 401 (Unauthorized). If it is so you should try to check your imp_uid and token. If everything is correct try to reach support of iamport.kr .

Can't add email to Campaign Monitor API?

I am trying to create some simple Ruby code to add emails using the Campaign Monitor API. Below is my code.
require 'httparty'
require 'json'
def request
url = 'https://api.createsend.com/api/v3.1/subscribers/MYLISTID.json'
auth = {:username => 'MYAPIKEY', :password => 'x'}
response = HTTParty.post(url,
:basic_auth => auth, :body => {
'EmailAddress' => 'mike#hotmail.com',
'Name' => 'Test',
'Resubscribe' => true,
'RestartSubscriptionBasedAutoresponders' => true
})
puts response
puts response.code
end
request
I can connect with the API. However, when I try to add the email I am getting the following response.
{"Code"=>400, "Message"=>"Failed to deserialize your request.
Please check the documentation and try again.
Fields in error: subscriber"}
400
When I change the request to get instead of put
my response is:
{"Code"=>1, "Message"=>"Invalid Email Address"}
I can't understand what I am doing wrong as I have followed the documentation on the Campaign Monitor API
It looks like you have everything setup correctly, you just need to turn the body of the post into a json string.
response = HTTParty.post(url,
:basic_auth => auth, :body => {
'EmailAddress' => 'mike#hotmail.com',
'Name' => 'Test',
'Resubscribe' => true,
'RestartSubscriptionBasedAutoresponders' => true
}.to_json)
I'd like to point out that a Campaign Monitor API gem also exists that will do all of that work for you.

Not sure why I keep getting 404 error with Ruby Rest Client

I'm using the following code:
RestClient.get "https://myurl.com/apps/v1/company/apps/appname/device/#{device_uuid}", :params => {:client_id => client_id, :client_secret => client_secret} do |response, request, result, &block|
if [404].include? response.code
puts 'ERROR' + response.body
else
response.return!(request, result, &block)
end
end
I am trying to use client_id and client_secret as query string parameters, and I know that when I manually do a get on this url in my browser that it is valid - however when I try to use this rest client get request, I only seem to be getting a 404 resource not found back.
The end result I am trying to do is to get the JSON back from this get request as well - it may need to be a separate question but I am also having issues with getting the JSON contents from the response body.
Thank you for any help
The code from above worked better as:
response = RestClient.get "https://myurl.com/apps/v1/company/apps/app1/devices/#device_uuid}",
{:params => {:client_id => client_id, :client_secret => client_secret}, :accept => :json}
It was not just adding the :accept => :json but also making sure it was passed along as part of my parameters - no idea why it bubbled up as a 404 though.

Stubbing RestClient response in RSpec

I have the following spec...
describe "successful POST on /user/create" do
it "should redirect to dashboard" do
post '/user/create', {
:name => "dave",
:email => "dave#dave.com",
:password => "another_pass"
}
last_response.should be_redirect
follow_redirect!
last_request.url.should == 'http://example.org/dave/dashboard'
end
end
The post method on the Sinatra application makes a call to an external service using rest-client. I need to somehow stub the rest client call to send back canned responses so I don't have to invoke an actual HTTP call.
My application code is...
post '/user/create' do
user_name = params[:name]
response = RestClient.post('http://localhost:1885/api/users/', params.to_json, :content_type => :json, :accept => :json)
if response.code == 200
redirect to "/#{user_name}/dashboard"
else
raise response.to_s
end
end
Can someone tell me how I do this with RSpec? I've Googled around and come across many blog posts which scratch the surface but I can't actually find the answer. I'm pretty new to RSpec period.
Thanks
Using a mock for the response you can do this. I'm still pretty new to rspec and test in general, but this worked for me.
describe "successful POST on /user/create" do
it "should redirect to dashboard" do
RestClient = double
response = double
response.stub(:code) { 200 }
RestClient.stub(:post) { response }
post '/user/create', {
:name => "dave",
:email => "dave#dave.com",
:password => "another_pass"
}
last_response.should be_redirect
follow_redirect!
last_request.url.should == 'http://example.org/dave/dashboard'
end
end
Instance doubles are the way to go. If you stub a method that doesn't exist you get an error, which prevents you from calling an un-existing method in production code.
response = instance_double(RestClient::Response,
body: {
'isAvailable' => true,
'imageAvailable' => false,
}.to_json)
# or :get, :post, :etc
allow(RestClient::Request).to receive(:execute).and_return(response)
I would consider using a gem for a task like this.
Two of the most popular are WebMock and VCR.

Send and Receive JSON using RestClient and Sinatra

I am trying to send a JSON data to a Sinatra app by RestClient ruby API.
At client(client.rb) (using RestClient API)
response = RestClient.post 'http://localhost:4567/solve', jdata, :content_type => :json, :accept => :json
At server (Sinatra)
require "rubygems"
require "sinatra"
post '/solve/:data' do
jdata = params[:data]
for_json = JSON.parse(jdata)
end
I get the following error
/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rest-client-1.5.1/lib/restclient/abstract_response.rb:53:in `return!': Resource Not Found (RestClient::ResourceNotFound)

All I want is to send JSON data and receive a JSON data back using RestClient and Sinatra..but whatever I try, I get the above error. I m stuck with this for 3 hours. Please help
Your sinatra app, don't match with http://localhost:4567/solve URL, so it's return a 404 from your server.
You need change your sinatra app by example :
require "rubygems"
require "sinatra"
post '/solve/?' do
jdata = params[:data]
for_json = JSON.parse(jdata)
end
You have a problem with your RestClient request too. You need define the params name of jdata.
response = RestClient.post 'http://localhost:4567/solve', {:data => jdata}, {:content_type => :json, :accept => :json}
Try this:
jdata = {:key => 'I am a value'}.to_json
response = RestClient.post 'http://localhost:4567/solve', :data => jdata, :content_type => :json, :accept => :json
And then try this:
post '/solve' do
jdata = JSON.parse(params[:data])
puts jdata
end
I didn't test it but maybe you should send the json data as value rather than a key. Is is possible that you data looks like this: {:key => 'I am a value'} => nil. Your data does not necessary has to be in url at all. You don't need /solve/:data url. POST values are not to be send in url
A good way to debug what you receive in your route is to print the params:
puts params
Hope this helps!
