REST Api

[DirectuX]

Hi,

TCP/UDP module works on the transport layer (layer 4) of the OSI Model: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model

Ok.

If you tell me what you are trying to do, maybe I get help on that.

Sure,

I'm studying the practicability of talking with an OrientDB Server instance using the OrientDB RESTful HTTP protocol : http://orientdb.com/docs/last/OrientDB-REST.html

OK perfect.
I've already used thinBasic at work for some WS (Web Services) integration.

thinBasic module to use is "MSXML2"
Start from the few examples in C:\thinBasic\SampleScripts\MSXML2\ directory
In particular "HTTPS_Rest_Api.tbasic" example will show how to connect both sync of async to a bank account to get movements
Documentation and examples of the bank api is at https://www.platfr.io/#/docs/api

Let me know.

Maybe better to start a new thread not to mix tcp and WS
I will split this thread.

Ciao

Hi,

Let me know.

It seems to me to be the answer, let me have some time to try it.

The Windows web server market is minuscule to the real world based on Linux, Apache and Nginx.

The Windows web server market is minuscule to the real world based on Linux, Apache and Nginx.

What's the value of this statement?

DirectuX asked about "consuming" a WS and not "creating" a WS.
Who cares about what OS is the WS located or created if you just need to consume its data?

Please John.

According to W3Techs, Linux has a 37% share and Windows a 32% share. I believe the word 'minuscule' was misused.

Given that TB and PB are Windows apps, one bloviated opinion that might be true is: Among servers hosting Windows Web Applications, Linux is nearly irrelevant!

Hi,

let me have some time to try it.

ErosOlmi, I'm trying, and now facing an error and a question:

Error code: 262
Error description: Invalid delimiter

when using these functions :
https://www.thinbasic.com/public/pro...est_status.htm
and
https://www.thinbasic.com/public/pro...nseheaders.htm

• Here, theses functions doesn't even highlight within thinAir. Is it the same for everyone ?
  
• And, can I assume that after initializing an <ServerXMLHTTPRequest> object, I can set request headers before opening a request ? that is to say: use <ServerXMLHTTPRequest>.SetRequestHeader(strHeaderName, strValue) before <ServerXMLHTTPRequest>.Open(bstrMethod, bstrUrl [, bAsync [, bstrUser, bstrPassword]])

Hi,

ErosOlmi, I'm trying, and now facing an error and a question:

Update: one must not put parenthesis at the end of these two functions unlike it is said in the documentation.

Still, the status returned is 0 and the header empty as in the HTTPS rest api example.

Hi,

Still, the status returned is 0 and the header empty as in the HTTPS rest api example.

On the good way, able now to successful login.

Found that console_read() keeps the ending enter key in the string.

remove$(console_read(),ANY $CRLF)

removes it.

Still, the status returned is 0 and the header empty

built url was false because of this.

Sorry Eros!

I missed the point of this thread reading it too quickly.

I use libcurl for my web service needs.
