Detailed Description

base class for accessing the system REST API

Member Function Documentation

constructor()

OMQ::QorusSystemRestHelperBase::constructor	(	*hash< auto >	opts,
		*softbool	do_not_connect
	)

creates the object with the given options; a connection is automatically made unless the do_not_connect argument is False

Parameters

opts	options as follows: api_version: the REST API version (defaults to the latest version) connect_timeout: the connect timeout value in milliseconds timeout: the socket I/O timeout value in milliseconds url: the target URL
do_not_connect	if True, then the object will be created in an unconnected state

Since

Qorus 3.1.1 added the api_version option

del()

auto OMQ::QorusSystemRestHelperBase::del	(	string	path,
		auto	args,
		*hash< auto >	hdr,
		*reference< hash >	info
	)

executes a DELETE call on the remote REST service and returns the response

Parameters

path	the URI path for the request
args	any arguments to the REST request
hdr	a hash of optional HTTP header info to add to the request
info	an optional reference to a hash that will be used as an output variable giving a hash of request headers and other information about the HTTP request; if present the hash will contain the following keys: headers: a hash of outgoing HTTP request headers request-uri: the request URI string sent (ex: "DELETE /users/olduser HTTP/1.1") body-content-type: the outgoing message body Mime Content-Type value response-headers: a hash of incoming HTTP headers in the response chunked: set to True if the response was received with chunked transfer encoding response-code: the HTTP response code response-body: the raw message body in the response (after any content decoding) response-serialization: the type of message serialization in the response; see RestClient::RestClient::DataSerializationOptions for possible values request-body: the raw message body in the request (before any content encoding) request-serialization: the type of message serialization in the request; see RestClient::RestClient::DataSerializationOptions for possible values

Returns

the deserialized response body

delWithInfo()

hash<auto> OMQ::QorusSystemRestHelperBase::delWithInfo	(	string	path,
		auto	args,
		*hash< auto >	hdr
	)

executes a DELETE call on the remote REST service and returns the response

args	any arguments to the REST request
hdr	a hash of optional HTTP header info to add to the request

Returns

a hash with the following keys:

• rv: the deserialized response body

  • request-uri: the request URI string sent (ex: "DELETE /users/olduser HTTP/1.1")
  • body-content-type: the outgoing message body Mime Content-Type value
  • response-headers: a hash of incoming HTTP headers in the response
  • chunked: set to True if the response was received with chunked transfer encoding

Example:

hash<auto> ans = rest.doRequest("DELETE", "/orders/1");
