Hi,

I am trying to implement a small sample webservice. The GET method there are no issues. But when i try to implement a POST. I get a 405, saying that POST method is not allowed for this resource. Could someone help in this regard.

Well has it got something to do with this?

(restish)sam@csslabs-laptop-xubuntu:/sandbox/restish/lib/python2.6$
grep -inHR allowed * | grep -i methods
site-packages/Paste-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/fileapp.py:57:
allowed_methods = ('GET', 'HEAD')

which allows on the 'GET' and 'HEAD' method?

I added POST to the allowed_methods tuple. But when i do a POST
request i end up getting the following as the response.

<html>
<head>
<title>my001</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>my001</h1>
This is the default page for the my001 project.
The page is called index.html and is part of your application's
package,
my001, inside the public/ directory, i.e. my001/public/
index.html.
Any files you add to the public directory will be served in
preference
to your application's dynamic resources.
When you're ready simply delete index.html and your root
resource will
be returned for this URL instead.
</body>
</html>

Instead of an expected xml.

Well this very suprising.

I create another project, my002.

And did a get on http://127.0.0.1:8080/ using firefox AddOn
RESTClient.

And i got the following as the response

<html>
<head>
<title>my002</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>my002</h1>
This is the default page for the my002 project.

The page is called index.html and is part of your application's
package,

my002, inside the public/ directory, i.e. my002/public/

index.html.
Any files you add to the public directory will be served in
preference
to your application's dynamic resources.
When you're ready simply delete index.html and your root
resource will
be returned for this URL instead.
</body>
</html>

But the response should be the Hello from my002! right?

I am using retish 0.10

Forgive me for this rants...

I finally figured out that you needs to delete the index.html and
"clear the cache" from your browser.

And i got GET working but still have issues with the POST, still get a
405. I did a basic app to test this....

import logging
from restish import http, resource
import EC2

log = logging.getLogger(__name__)

class Root(resource.Resource):
@resource.POST()
def html(self, request):
return http.ok([('Content-Type', 'text/html')],
"Hello from my002!")

Yep, don't forget to delete that default file `public/index.html`

this works for me (besides the double @ coming from pastie itself):

Hi Sam,

Firstly, sorry for delayed reply but I've just got back from a short holiday. Thanks to Yoan (as always) for helping.

Glad you got things sorted out in the end, sorry it wasn't more obvious what you needed to do.

The public/index.html only really exists so that *something* useful is displayed by default. Assuming you read the index.html content ;-) how can we make it clearer that index.html should be deleted to expose your root resource?

For instance, would it have helped if the generated root resource referenced the index.html file, e.g.:

class Root(resource.Resource):

@resource.GET()

def html(self, request):

# Not seeing this? Delete example/public/index.html to expose this resource.

return http.ok([('Content-Type', 'text/html')],

"Hello from example!")

Or perhaps making index.html describe the project's structure more would be more useful?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

- Matt
