Http connection from Rhodes application

[diegog]

Hi,

I want to consume REST Rails services from a Rhodes application. Can I
do this without using RhoSync server? I want to do something like:

http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host)
http.post...
http.put...
http.delete...
http.get...

All of the examples I have seen use RhoSync storing local data on the
device.. is the "net" library available for Rhodes?

Thanks in advance!
Diego

The team is hard at work on net/http in Rhodes as we speak. We're
committed to it by end of year, hopefully sooner

Hi Adam, thanks for your response.

I have another question. If I choose to open source my mobile
application do I have to pay any money to Rhomobile? I mean $500 for
Rhodes and $5,000 for RhoSync just in case I choose to use RhoSync?

Thanks again,
Diego

[Adam Blum]

If you open source your entire application (including whatever backend or existing web app you are connecting to), you are compliant with GPLv3 and thus do not need to purchase a commercial license. 

As a courtesy we would request that you let us know where your source is posted (RhoHub and GitHub are great places to do so).  There are third party open source advocates who look for license violations.  We like to let them know who is compliant ahead of time.

Thanks Adam,

if I buy the RhoHub subscription do I pay $5,000 for RhoSync too? or
does RhoHub subscription payment replaces that?

Thanks,
Diego

[Adam Blum]

Diego,

A RhoHub subscription includes a RhoSync license. 

But we do not make quality of service guarantees on RhoHub (guaranteed uptime, etc.).  Also there is certain kinds of information (see our terms of service where spell those out, but it includes personal financial and medical information) that we do not let you have on RhoHub.   We also do not scale RhoHub beyond 1000 users.

Does this mean that if you're using rhosync to pull data from the
flickr api, flickr needs to be open source? This seems incredibly
limiting. Will the net/http addition also include json or xml
libraries?

Thanks,
jeff

Added to 1-4-unstable branch :
http://wiki.rhomobile.com/index.php/Rhodes#net.2Fhttp_library_support

Evgeny.

I have changed this slightly as part of implementing generic extensions.
Wiki page is updated - only change was what you put in your build.yml file.

So, I've got the HTTP request working and returning valid data in the
iPhone simulator (using 1-4-unstable branch). Obviously, https isn't
implemented as it depends on natively built libraries like openssl, am
I wrong?

My question is-- does Net::HTTP with https have any chance of being
implemented in a future release, even in 1.4? Can I submit a formal
request for it somewhere? I think there's a lot of others out there
that would benefit from this feature.

For my application, I'm calling my remote api's that I'd rather keep
behind https only, but now I guess I'll have to open them up to non-
ssl requests.

Thanks so much for taking the time to add the Net::HTTP libs to
Rhodes.

Please submit a lighthouse request. Pointers to your open sourced code
or a commercial license will weight your request higher.

For Non-BB platforms we can just include openssl c-library to rhodes, but
for BB it will be much longer story.

[groovetrain]

Is anyone else having issues with this library and the Android
emulator? I'm getting an error:

Server Error
Error: getaddrinfo: No address associated with hostname
Trace:
lib/net/http.rb:585:in `initialize'
...

I tested my android app and CAN browse the internet, but I'm wondering
if Net:HTTP is blocked by the device somehow?

I don't think net/http is yet implemented for Android.  It will be before 1.4 is released.

[groovetrain]

I checked the application settings for my app, and it says that it has
"full Internet access"

Ah, thanks, Adam.

The Rhodes team has no idea how far I'm getting in my app in so short
a time because of this great product. Keep up the awesome work, guys!

Hi,

I have one problem in android platform.

I am now using yahoo map for get map for address which are entered by user.

But, I can't find latitude and longitude for address which are entered by user.

If u have any sample code.Now,I am get map using JavaScript.
If u know how we get response from java script in rho hub and read latitude and longitude
from XML file.Please help me for this problem.

Thanks,
Kishor

[groovetrain]

So you're using javascript to get the XML, and javascript needs to
parse the XML and read from it? Then take the latitude and longitude
and go to a Yahoo map with them? If this is all javascript, it really
doesn't belong in this thread.

Kishor,

I cant quite see what your question has to do with this thread. You are apparently looking for a web service API which returns lat/long from an address (also known as a geocoding API). There are many out there including geocoding.us but this isn't a Rhodes question. If it's just "how do I parse returned XML in JavaScript" there are many samples of that out there on the internet.

Evgeny,

Here is my code for my http request that is failing as I describe
above:

def post(path,params)
uri = URI.parse('http://myapis.local/' + path)
req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri.path)
req.set_form_data( post_hash( params ), ';' )
res = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port).start {|http| http.request
(req) }
case res
when Net::HTTPSuccess, Net::HTTPRedirection
res.body
else
false
end
end

Scroll up in this thread to see the exact error I'm getting.

Thanks!

So you use local server?
Does it has external IP?

[groovetrain]

Right, I'm using my local machine. Your questions are hinting at
something that I was afraid of: That the android emulator does not
share my internet connection like the iPhone emulator does. I tried
going to my machine's homepage in the browser in the android emulator,
and it says "server not found", whereas in the iPhone emulator, I can
hit my local machine.

Why is this, and is there a setting that I can use on the android
emulator somehow to make it work, like make it proxy behind my local
machine?

Thanks.

Right, your error is because you use hostname which can not be
resolved on android emulator.
Actually android emulator is an isolated virtual machine (qemu based)
so it does not share network settings with host computer. There is
command line parameter '-dns-server <servers>' which allows emulator
to use different DNS servers. So you need to get running local DNS
server to resolve your custom names.

You can also use IPs instead of symbolic names if your HTTP server
does not use name based virtual hosting.

I ran across this post today:

http://sacoskun.blogspot.com/2009/06/configure-hosts-file-in-android.html

And got my app working on the Android emulator by adding this line
into the android emulator's hosts file:

10.0.2.2 myaps.local

So what I'm wondering is: Is there a way to make the rakefile
automatically push a modified hosts file (if it exists) up into the
android emulator right after it's finished loading the app onto the
emulator?

It's just a shot in the dark, but could be useful. What do you think?
