Remote Control Plugin View Position

[Abuuh Soo]

Hi everyone,

i am completely noob with this webstuf but managed to read status and view information via http get messages.

Now i want to set the View position with a post message, for example to

{"jNow":"[-0.300945, 0.728847, 0.614992]"}

What is the correct control line to set the View via the remote control plugin?

Are the coordinates submitted via the url or the post buffer?

What Syntax do i have to use?

Thx :D

I should note that i am using labview.

I can write a header, url and a buffer for the post request.I am not sure where to put the information.

From my understanding the url must be http://localhost:8090/api/main/view/

I need to specify the parameter J2000 or similar (see http://stellarium.org/doc/head/remoteControlApi.html#rcMainServiceView)

and the coordinates as a JSON Number Array of size 3

I tried "j2000":"[-0.614611, 0.707854, 0.348133]"

curl --data 'j2000=[1.0,0.0,0.0]' http://localhost:8090/api/main/view

Thanks Georg for bringing me on the right rack.

With " its working in the win10 comand prompt window.

     curl --data "j2000=[2.0,3.0,0.0]" http://localhost:8090/api/main/view

Labview still doesnt send anything out, but thats a problem for the Labview Forum.

Thx again!

I think the vector should be normalized (length==1), but maybe this also works.
