How to dynamically set Method type and content of a request

[ravijo]

I am newbie here. I have below two questions.

(1) How to set Method type without annotation? Is there any such method which can set the request method i.e. POST/GET?

(2) Most of our REST service, take JSON data as input. How I can set this JSON data without annotation? Since I need to pass these JSON data from an external file dynamically,so I can't use annotation. I saw a sample code here (https://github.com/andreasmihm/restfuse/blob/master/com.eclipsesource.restfuse.example/src/com/eclipsesource/restfuse/example/DynamicBodyTest.java) but I am using latest build of restfuse and unable to get RequestContext.setDynamicBody(String) method.

Please help.

hi,
restfuse only works annotation-based,
but in this annotation you can specify an external file to be the content by using the file attribute of the HttpTest annotation,

does that solve your problem?

Hi andreasmihm,

Thank you for your kind reply. I am trying to automate some REST services. Some of them are GET HTTP and POST HTTP, which takes json as an input. I am putting all my efforts below-

Here is the code link (http://ideone.com/plain/uinDuZ) or you can have a look below-

@RunWith(HttpJUnitRunner.class)
public class SimpleHttpTest {

@Rule
public Destination restFuse = getDestination();

@Context
private Response response;

@HttpTest(method = Method.POST, content = "{\"username\":\"demouser\", \"password\":\"demopassword\", \"id\":\"application\"}", path = "{path}")
public void login_with_valid_credentail() {
    //Method type is not dynamically configurable :(
    //content is  not dynamically configurable :(
    System.out.println("response=" + response.getBody());
    //dummy code to test
    assertOk(response);
}

private Destination getDestination() {
    //destination is dynamically configurable from here
    final Destination destination = new Destination(this,"http://192.168.16.217:8080");
    RequestContext context = destination.getRequestContext();
    //path is dynamically configurable from here
    context.addPathSegment("path","services/authentication/login");
    //'Content-Type' is dynamically configurable from here
    context.addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
    return destination;
}

}

My points questions are below-
(1) How to set method type (GET/POST/PUT/DELETE) dynamically?
(2) How to set content dynamically, which needs to be set for some REST services?

Ravi
