Forum | Appery.io

For password retrieval functionality I'm trying to call an appery.io REST service from an external server (node.js) script(currently running on my local machine).
GET requests work just fine, issueing POST/PUT requests fail with the following error:

{"statusCode":500,"data":{"code":"DBUS000","description":"Bad arguments passed to public abstract com.mongodb.DBObjec
t com.exadel.appery.dataservice.rest.resource.UserResource.signUp(com.mongodb.BasicDBObject) ( java.util.LinkedHashMap {username=asdfasf,
password=asdf} )"}}

Here are the request/header detials I'm sending:

"host":"api.appery.io",
"path":"/rest/1/db/users",
"method":"POST",
"Content-Type":"application/json; charset=UTF-8",
"Content-Length":53
"headers":{
"X-Appery-Database-Id":"52093c91e4b04c2d0a027d7f",
"X-Appery-Session-Token":"e3c68bc3-46d1-405f-a77e-58e501a4410d",
"Host":"api.appery.io",
"Referer":"http://localhost/clLib/clLib_users.html",
"Origin":"http://localhost",
"Cache-Control":"no-cache",
}

Could you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Hi -

It looks like a cross-domain issue:
:: http://docs.appery.io/documentation/c...

Does the error really indicate a cross domain issue?
How am I supposed to call the appery REST service from a node.js script?
I'm trying with the following code:

code
var https = require('https');
var util = require("util");
var executeRequest = function(host, path, method, params) {
var httpOptions = {
"Content-Type": 'application/json'
,host: host
,port: '443'
,path: path
,method: method
,headers: {
"X-Appery-Database-Id" : "52093c91e4b04c2d0a027d7f",
"X-Appery-Session-Token": "d4a5739e-8111-4916-9980-5deda235adb0"
}
};
var req = https.request(httpOptions, function(res) {
util.log("statusCode: " + res.statusCode);
res.on('data', function(d) {
util.log("received data:" + d);
});
});

req.on('error', function(errorObj) {
util.log("error:" + errorObj);
});

req.write(JSON.stringify(params)); //, "utf-8");
req.end();
};

executeRequest("api.appery.io", "/rest/1/db/users", "POST", {username: "foo", password : "bar"});
/code

Can you tell me what's wrong?

Thx in advance,

Hello! Please set "Content-Type": 'application/json'. In headers parameter should be: preheaders: {
"X-Appery-Database-Id" : "xxxxxxxxxxxx",
"X-Appery-Session-Token": "xxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx",
"Content-Type": 'application/json'
}/pre

Hi Wolfgang --

just to add to what Maryna said:

-- it is also desirable to add a header "Content-Length" and before that convert the request body into a string:

pre
var paramsString = JSON.stringify(params);
...
,headers: {
"X-Appery-Database-Id" : "52093c91e4b04c2d0a027d7f",
"X-Appery-Session-Token": "d4a5739e-8111-4916-9980-5deda235adb0",
"Content-Type": 'application/json',
"Content-Length": paramsString.length
}
...
req.write(paramsString);
/pre
