Have looked at other related posts but nothing seemed to work.
Basically I'm trying to figure out how to pass data to my restful spring-boot app.
Here is the curl command I'm using:
$ curl -iX POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d @args.json http://localhost:8080/myapp/dummyApi
With args.json
contains:
file: args.json:
{
"arg1": "hello",
"arg2": 10,
"arg3": {
"a": "1",
"b": "2"
}
}
The api is defined in MyController.java
as such:
file: MyController.java
@RestController
@RequestMapping("/myapp")
public class MyController {
//...
static class DummyRet {
private String foo;
public DummyRet(String f) {
foo = f;
}
public String getFoo() {
return foo;
}
public void setFoo(String foo) {
this.foo = foo;
}
}
@RequestMapping(value="/dummyApi", method=RequestMethod.POST)
public DummyRet dummyApi(@RequestParam(value = "arg1", required = false, defaultValue = "") String arg1,
@RequestParam(value = "arg2", required = false, defaultValue = "") Long arg2,
@RequestParam(value = "arg3", required = false) Map<String, String> arg3) {
LOGGER.info(">>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>");
LOGGER.info("Arguments received:");
LOGGER.info("arg1: " + arg1);
LOGGER.info("arg2: " + arg2);
LOGGER.info("arg3: " + arg3);
LOGGER.info(">>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>");
return new DummyRet("foo");
}
//...
}
The return of the curl command is 200 success (since non of the arguments is required) but the values of args are not reaching over to dummyApi
method
$ curl -iX POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d @args.json http://localhost:8080/myapp/dummyApi
HTTP/1.1 200
Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8

{"foo":"foo"}
The server console looks like this:
