Unable to submit via api

[michaelluich]

I'm trying to submit the trivial job via the API. I keep getting {"code":415,"message":"HTTP 415 Unsupported Media Type"}

To create: $ ./jobson generate spec trivial $ ./jobson validate spec trivial $ ./jobson generate request trivial > dummy-req.json $ curl --data @dummy-req.json --user devops.user:'12!Pass345' localhost:8080/v1/jobs {"code":415,"message":"HTTP 415 Unsupported Media Type"}

$ cat dummy-req.json { "spec" : "trivial", "name" : "Enim dolores vel exercitationem omnis et velit ea autem.", "inputs" : { "message" : "Hello, world!" } }

I believe this is because curl defaults to using application/x-www-form-urlencoded as the Content-Type for a request if a Content-Type is not explicitly specified (add -v to curl to confirm for yourself).

I tried a fresh workflow and found that curl worked fine after adding a Content-Type header to tell the server it's JSON:

#/bin/bash

mkdir $1
cd $1
jobson new
jobson generate spec test-spec
jobson generate request test-spec > req.json
jobson users add user -p password
jobson serve config.yml 1>log 2>log &

# Echoes 'Unsupported Media Type'
curl --user user:password --data @req.json localhost:8080/v1/jobs

# Echoes job response
curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --user user:password --data @req.json localhost:8080/v1/jobs

I have updated README.md in the master branch with the above example, just in case other devs encounter a similar issue. The response being generated, Unsupported Media Type, is handled by the framework I'm using (dropwizard/jersey). There might be scope for enhancing the error message along the lines of Unsupported Media Type ${type}, but if it involves adding media switches onto each resource it might be too much work right now.

That makes sense. It wasn't clear that jobson api needed json. It makes sense but this makes it clearer.

And I can confirm the change works. And that my jobson works as well. Now on to my integration.

curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data @dummy-req.json --user username:password localhost:8080/v1/jobs {"id":"4ejtcuvpr3","_links":{}}

Thanks, Mike Luich
