#REST API

Some time ago I got a WRC case transferred where a customer asks for the availability of a raw DEFLATE compression/decompression function built-in Caché.

When we talk about DEFLATE we need to talk about Zlib as well, since Zlib is the de-facto standard free compression/decompression library developed in the mid-90s.

Zlib works on particular DEFLATE compression/decompression algorithm and the idea of encapsulation within a wrapper (gzip, zlib, etc.).

Hello

I'm in the process of creating a TestClass which simulate a HTTP POST call to REST-based web
services and while I am having success, I'm struggling on how to parse out the results to a JSON
format

Here is down the code part which concerns parsing the HttpResponse.Data variable into JSON :

... but let’s first take a look at two relatively small topics, and namely:

Creation of a multi-page REST application

We only have one page for now. How about adding one more? Said - done.

In this article I'd like to discuss asynchronous REST and approaches to implementing it.

Why do we need asynchronous REST? Simply put - answering the request takes too much time. While most requests usually can be satisfied immediately, some can't. The reasons are varied:

• You need to perform time-consuming calculations
• Performing action actually takes time (for example container creation)
• etc.

The solution to these problems is asynchronous REST. Asynchronous REST works by separating request and real response. Here's an example, let's consider the following simple async REST broker:

Hi guys,

is there a way to get the Call-Parameter in an UrlMap to call a method that lies in another class?

Example:

I have a generic class 'RestApi' where I define all my routes for the different Rest-Services I offer - in order to get the same URL for every service.

This series of articles aims to address the following topics:

• Creation of a web application based on REST pages;
• Overview of some tools for tracing (debugging) HTTP requests;
• Switching from hyperevents to... hyperevents;
• Integration with jQuery File Upload;
• Conversion of JSON from the {id:1,parentId:1} format to the {id:1,children:[{}]} format for tree visualization;
• Integration with jQuery EasyUI (using datagrid and tree as examples);
• Other topics.

Hello, evrybody, I'm writing one project using CSP("OnPreHTTP"), and also REST angular. At the beginning I wrote purely on csp, then I decided to use angular for the flexibility of the client part. Now I can not design logging, I created a table App.Log with properties

Hi team,

i send an http request to my rest class, i want to extract ID , full name , pass word from this request , can you show me how doing it.

thank's

Good afternoon - I am in the process of writing a AngularJS front-end for some CoS functions that my integration team uses for auditing, analyzing and various other purposes. I have re-tooled the functions to return JSON results that AngularJS can then interpret and display. Many kudos to the AngularJS series on this site for giving me a jump start.

Hello again and welcome to the next tutorial on this series: Part 4 - Sharing data across router methods.  Here we are going to learn how to share a object containing data that is available for read across every router methods.

You're required to complete at least the Part 1 before entering this one. Still, this is supposed to be a really short tutorial, since there isn't much to be said about data sharing.
