POST request with Array

Wed Mar 05, 2014 1:07 am

Hi Sheldon.

If you want to send jQuery.ajax request through the Appery.io proxy you can use the following code:
pre$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "https://appery.io/app/rest/tunnel",
contentType: 'application/json',
headers: {
//Url to your request
"appery-proxy-url": "https://api.appery.io/rest/1/db/collections/dogs",

Code: Select all

     "appery-key": "13939800931xx", 
     "appery-rest": "45c2ad18-d6c7-460d-96ed-d945d9e8d5xx", 
     "appery-transformation": "checkTunnel", 
 }, 
 &#47;&#47;Here is your request parameters 
 data: { 
     "paramName": "paramValue" 
 }, 
 success: function(data) { 
     &#47;&#47;Note: ajax request is async&#46; That's why you can't to return the value for parent function and should invoke some function instead&#46; 
     console&#46;log(data); 
 }

});/pre

But there is one more way to do this:

Create REST service;
Fill settings with those url, parameters, etc you need;
Paste proxy id into the "Use Appery.io Proxy"
Invoke Service via javascript code with parameters you need.

I think i like you second option. But perhaps you can answer this before I do all that. Because im pulling this json file URL from the response and mapping it to a Grid as array, How can i be sure to always pull the correct "value" per line in the grid layout.

Example:
Line 1 = 1.json
Line 2 = 2.json
Line 3 = 3.json

I would now need to do a GET Request for Line 1 - 3 each. and output back the response value in that same Line.

Here is a example of the json file Response data that i'm mapping. Notice the Shipping_address is another json file. So essentially i need the actual shipping_address information to show in my Grid fields. - !!!And this is an Array!!!

As I understand your correctly you want to do next things:

1 Get some service response data.
2 Supplement the data by data obtained from another requests.
3 Map ready(after 1-2 steps) data to the list.

Because you use a async logic and it should to be synced. There is another way how to do this.

1 Create custom security context service: http://docs.appery.io/documentation/g...

2 Use next code to wrap answer and make custom logic(including server requests).

pre

Appery.MySecurityGeneric = Appery.createClass(SecurityContext, {

Code: Select all

 invoke: function(service, settings) { 
     var oldSuccess = settings.success; 

     var onSuccess = function(value, other){ 
         var onNeedToComplete = function(){ 
             oldSuccess.call(this, value, other); 
         }; 

         for(var i in value){ 
             //Set counterValue for each response item. This is sync way to change data. 
             value[i].shipping_addresses_ready = [{..}, {...}]; 

             //This you need to invoke your other services or ajax request. And sync it. 
             //After all data would be ready you have to run "onNeedToComplete();" function. 
         } 

         //You should call this function when all your changes competed. So if you use async js - you should call  
         it when all transformations are ready. 
         onNeedToComplete(); 
     }; 

     settings.success = onSuccess; 
     Appery.MySecurityGeneric.$super.invoke.call(this, service, settings); 
 }

});

/pre
where MySecurityGeneric - your service name.

After you will do these steps you can use this generic service to create your layout without async problems.
