Class PutRequest


  • public class PutRequest
    extends HttpRequest
    Provides a PUT Request class for performing simple HTTP request operations. This class provides an easier and safer interface for the Apache HTTP Components library.

    The default connection timeout is 10 seconds and socket read timeout is 60 seconds. Socket connections will also apply any JVM proxy settings automatically.

    By default the maximum response read size is 16 MB. If the response is larger than this an IOException will be thrown. To increase the maximum read limit use the HttpRequest.setReadLimit(int) method.

    In RESTful services the PUT method is used to update resources.

    Examples

    The example below performs PUT request and converts the response into a JSON document

     import com.avoka.component.http.PutRequest
    
     def message = '{ "cutomerId":82881, "name":"John Doe", "email":"[email protected]", "age":42 }'
    
     def username = serviceParameters.username
     def password = serviceParameters.password
    
     // execute PUT request and return a HttpResponse object
     def response = new PutRequest('https://service.mycorp.com/secure/rest/accounts/')
           .setMessage(message)
           .setBasicAuth(username, password)
           .execute()
    
     // check HttpResponse status code
     if (response.status == 200) {
         // get JSON object from the response
         def json = response.getJsonContent() {
         ...
    
     } else if  (response.status == 404) {
         // Not found
         ...
    
     } else {
         throw new RuntimeException(response.statusLine)
     }
