Hi.
I am trying to post comment on an Object (that is, a post, checkin,
photopost etc)
The problem is that a Post call with out a parameter works (this too
faces trouble at times), but the calls with Parameters don't work and
i get 417 Http Status or at times 500.
for example, here is what i am doing for testing purposes
HttpPost request=new HttpPost("http://brightkite.com/places/
4d65bf3e648846b767bc58e6fc5cee12/checkins.xml");
consumer.sign(request);
List <NameValuePair> parameters = new
ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
parameters.add(new BasicNameValuePair("comment[comment]", "I'm
hopeful"));
UrlEncodedFormEntity sendentity = new
UrlEncodedFormEntity(parameters, HTTP.UTF_8);
request.setHeader("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-
urlencoded");
request.setEntity(sendentity);
HttpResponse response=httpClient.execute(request);
int status=response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
System.out.println("Returned status -> "+status);
InputStream is2= response.getEntity().getContent();
for (int i = is2.read(); i > -1; i = is2.read()) {
System.out.write(i);
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What am i doing wrong? I have tried many things but the most
appropriate to me is what i have shared here. Any help would be great.
I have developed a Java wrapper for Brightkite Api, however, this is
the only thing missing (i.e posting comments and creating objects). By
the way Likes call doesn't work too, I get a success response but
Likes don't appear !

Hi -
Signing the OAuth call means you're ensuring that after it's been
signed, the call does not change (that's the security OAuth provides -
preventing tampering with authenticated calls). Thus, you have to add
your parameters BEFORE you sign the OAuth call - adding a parameter
afterwards is tantamount to tampering with the call.
Let me know if this helps.

and By the way "consumer" is
OAuthConsumer consumer=new
CommonsHttpOAuthConsumer(ConsumerKey,ConsumerSecret);
OAuthConsumer consumer=new
CommonsHttpOAuthConsumer(ConsumerKey,ConsumerSecret);

It looks like you're trying to post a comment to a place - comments
can only be posted on objects. Objects are checkins, posts, tips, etc.
Check out http://api.brightkite.com/objects.html for the parameters
you need to do a correct checkin.

I can attest that the OAuth processes are working, and that the API is
working - if you wish to verify for testing purposes, try just
explicitly authenticating (meaning, don't use OAuth, just include
`username` and `password` parameters.
If that call works, then the problem is in your OAuth library and
implementation. It looks like you're using http://code.google.com/p/oauth-signpost/
- I notice the example code differs from your example:
// create an HTTP request to a protected resource
URL url = new URL("http://api.example.com/protected")
HttpURLConnection request = (HttpURLConnection)
url.openConnection();
// sign the request (consumer is a Signpost
DefaultOAuthConsumer)
consumer.sign(request);
// send the request
request.connect();
Specifically, the example says to use request.connect, while your code
uses httpClient.execute(request). Perhaps this is the issue?

Now, as I did what u told me (following is the code for it)
URL url=new URL("http://brightkite.com/objects/
aa6f52d903ec8407417238a609314a2b/comments.xml");
HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection)
url.openConnection();
conn.setRequestProperty("comment[comment]", "xyz comment");
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Length",
String,valueOf(conn.getContentLength()));

At this point, I think the issues are in your code/library and not
with our API, so this group is no longer the best place to discuss it.
However, I'm still more than welcome to help you work through it -
please email me directly at < jor...@brightkite.com >.
If it turns out there's any issue with the API, or if we come up with
useful information for other API developers, I'll post it here so it
can help others.

It works now, but sadly i used (unwillingly :D) my Username and
password. Now I am trying to do it with OAuth, in the mean time any
help would be nice !

import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.PostMethod;
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
BufferedReader br = null;
PostMethod method = new PostMethod("http://brightkite.com/objects/
aa6f52d903ec8407417238a609314a2b/comments.xml");
method.setParameter("comment[comment]","This works!");
final String auth ="username:password";
method.setRequestHeader("Authorization","Basic "+
Base64.encodeBytes(auth.getBytes()).trim());
try{
int returnCode = client.executeMethod(method);
if(returnCode == HttpStatus.SC_NOT_IMPLEMENTED) {
System.err.println("The Post method is not implemented by
this URI");
// still consume the response body
method.getResponseBodyAsString();
} else {
br = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(method.getResponseBodyAsStream()));
String readLine;
while(((readLine = br.readLine()) != null)) {
System.err.println(readLine);
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println(e);
} finally {
method.releaseConnection();
if(br != null) try { br.close(); } catch (Exception fe) {}
}

which OAuth do i use for this ? I know two implementations,
CommonsHttpOAuthConsumer and DefaultOAuthConsumer. However, I can't
seem to find any class that signs a POSTMETHOD object ?

Unfortunately I'm not a Java developer, so all I can do is Google to
see if I can help.
http://developer.linkedin.com/thread/1442 seems similar to your issue.
Please email me directly at jor...@brightkite.com for further
discussion on this topic. If the API functions, and the problem is in
your implementation - although I will be happy to help you via email -
the Google Group is not an appropriate place for figuring out client-
side implementation issues.
Thanks!
