File streaming using Nodejs

Goal

With Nodejs support , the file should be streamed via the body

Section -1

Accept a HTTP POST request which will contain the following JSON in its body:

 {       event,       entity,       actor,       machines,       tests,       options       } 

I am interested in the event (‘completed’) and entity (‘job’).

Section -2

Then I'II call back the HTTP domain name mentioned in the actor with the following call:

 URL = actor + /api/logs/:id 

Where id will be options.id that received in the previous callback.

This will give back the JSON of all the log files generated for that job.

Section -3

I can then generate the full path for any log that I want:

URL = actor + logs/:id/:path 

I can then process the log and create final log.

Section -4

Once I am are ready,

I should do a HTTP post request to:

URL = actor + logs + :id + :name

I'm not sure which parameters should you post to NodeJS, but about Section 1 and 2, it might be the following.

%% Section 1
url = 'http://localhost:3000/postTest'; % To be replaced by your actual endpoint
data = struct('data', 1); % To be replaced by your actual json data
res = webwrite(url, data);

%% Section 2
url2 = "http://localhost:3000/" + res.actor + "/api/logs/:" + res.options.id;
% To be replaced by your actual endpoint
data2 = struct('data', 2); % To be replaced by your actual json data
res2 = webwrite(url2, data2); % If it is GET request, it would be res2 = webread(url2);

Hi @Kojiro Saito,

Thanks a lot. Make lot of sense with pseudo code .

I was wondoring what could be the url for

URL = actor + logs/:id/:path

I am not sure here [Two structure element one after another]

url3 = "http://localhost:3000/" + res.actor +  "/api/logs/:/:" + res.options.id.path;

Thanks

How about this?

url3 = "http://localhost:3000/" + res.actor +  "/api/logs/:" + res.options.id + "/:" + res.options.id.path;

I could imagine something like below,

although i am not sure if the interpretation/which perspective is the right one

URL  =  actor      +  logs/:id/:path				% Requirement	
url3 = [res.actor] +  [res.options.id] + [res.options.id.path]; % Your proposal
url3 = [res.actor] +  [res.options.id.path];			% My proposal

@Jogger

I am not sure which one is correct. It's not a matter of coding, but a matter of API implementation of server side. You need to refer your NodeJs programs or ask someone who knows the API in detail.

Thanks !

Can you please help me and I am not clear on the code

Accept a HTTP POST request which will contain the following JSON in its body

should have HTTP requestmethod POST or GET to get the JSON data ?

[Kojiro Saito]

Both HTTP GET and POST receices JSON data from server. You can try by using webread (HTTP GET) and webwrite (HTTP POST).
