How to insert data with JSON ?

[Pascal JEGO]

Hello, I'm new here and with fat free,
I have a question

How to insert a data with a input json ?

I use a plugin RESTClient in Firefox forn my tests. the error is 500 Internal Server Error
the data json RESTClient is

{
    "title": "Another article",
    "content": "This article was created using the JSON API. How cool is that?"
}

I use the post method. the header is Content-Type: application/json

i have defined in route.ini 

POST /api/article=ArticleController->apiCreateArticle

My function is

 

   public function apiCreateArticle($f3) {
     
        $filters = array(
          'art_title' => FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING,
          'art_content' => FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING
        );
        if ($_REQUEST) {
            // By default, use standard HTTP POST fields
            $post = $_REQUEST;
        } else {
            return;
        }
        // Ensure a status ID is added
        if (!empty($post["title"])) {
            return;
        }
        if (!empty($post["content"])) {
            return;
        }

        $article = new Article($this->db);
        $article->set('art_title', $post["title"]);
        $article->set('art_content', $post["content"]);
        $article->save();
    }

When i test with RESTClient my app can't even find the route 

thanks

Try using:

$post = json_decode(file_get_contents('php://input'), true);

I had that same issue yesterday.

make sure that your php.ini contains

enable_post_data_reading = On

and then use ved's method to read and get the POST data, because php doesn't recognize json-post, as it's used to receive a "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" Content-Type.
if you haven't enabled that php.ini value, then all the POST routes comes in as GET and you're not able to fetch its payload.

I basically used this snippet for automatically populating the POST array:

require('vendor/autoload.php');
/** @var \Base $f3 */
$f3 = \Base::instance();

// transform json POST body data
if ($f3->VERB == 'POST'
   && preg_match('/json/',$f3->get('HEADERS[Content-Type]')))
{
   $f3->set('BODY', file_get_contents('php://input'));
   if (strlen($f3->get('BODY'))) {
      $data = json_decode($f3->get('BODY'),true);
      if (json_last_error() == JSON_ERROR_NONE)
         $f3->set('POST',$data);
   }
}

$f3->run();

But, i have a new question.

well, POST should now hold your data means anywhere in your code

you can access it f.e.:

print_r($f3->get('POST'));
