Getting 404s working with Publish API

[Zane Williamson]

Hi All,

Not sure what I am doing wrong here but perhaps a second set of eyes will help me...

here is the testing layout:

repo

{"Name":"stable-repo","Comment":"","DefaultDistribution":"","DefaultComponent":"main"}

snapshot

{"Name":"rocksoftware301","CreatedAt":"2015-04-11T16:11:54.795861762Z","Description":"Snapshot from local repo [stable-repo]"}

My publish attempt:

curl -XPOST -H "Content-type: application/json" -d '{"SourceKind":"snapshot","Sources":[{"Name":"rocksoftware301"}],"Distribution":"precise",Component:"main"}' 'http://localhost:8082/api/publish'

404 page not found

I try with just requirements of SourceKind and Name:

curl -XPOST -H "Content-type: application/json" -d '{"SourceKind":"snapshot","Sources":[{"Name":"rocksoftware301"}]}' 'http://localhost:8082/api/publish'

404 page not found

Any advice on what I might be missing here would be appreciated!

Hmm, looks like I am having trouble with the DELETE function of the package API as well...

Testing publish point:

  * testing/precise-testing [amd64, i386] publishes {main: [testing-repo]}

$ curl -X DELETE http://127.0.0.1:8082/api/publish/testing/precise-testing

{}

400 code response?

[GIN] 2015/04/27 - 00:25:36 | 400 |     58.948µs | 10.0.2.2:50331 |   DELETE  /api/publish/testing/precise-testing

same thing with a force added:

$ curl -X DELETE http://127.0.0.1:8082/api/publish/testing/precise-testing?force=1

{}

[GIN] 2015/04/27 - 00:26:48 | 400 |     48.609µs | 10.0.2.2:50335 |   DELETE  /api/publish/testing/precise-testing

I figured it out.  The documentation appears to be wrong on the Publish API page.  Ill submit a pull request to update it.

basically, 

docs say to call http://localhost:8082/api/publish

but this works:

http://localhost:8082/api/publish//repos

Ok here is the pull request - https://github.com/aptly-dev/aptly-dev.github.io/pull/14

Hi Zane,

Could that be that you're running some old development version of aptly?

It looks like DELETE is not implemented, and old format of publish API is being used. Docs should be up to date with current version (0.9+).

Great, upgrading did the trick.  Appreciate the feedback!
