FishEye REST API and making POST requests via groovy-wslite

[Jeff Wilson]

I'm trying to use groovy-wslite to do some queries via the FishEye REST API. I'm an experienced Java programmer but a newbie to Groovy and groovy-wslite.

I've got GET requests working fine. I'm trying to do my first POST, specifically with the following call:

/rest-service-fe/search-v1/reviewsForChangesets/{repo}

The call is documented like here:

http://docs.atlassian.com/fisheye-crucible/latest/wadl/fisheye.html#d2e385

Here is the code I'm trying to use:

@Grab(group='com.github.groovy-wslite', module='groovy-wslite', version='0.7.1')

import wslite.rest.* 

def client = new RESTClient('http://server:port/context')
def response = client.post(path:'/rest-service-fe/search-v1/reviewsForChangesets/repo?userName=user&password=password') { 
      type: ContentType.URLENC
      text { cs:'12345,23456,34567' } }

Running this code throws a 500 error from the server:

Caused by: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 500 for URL: http://crucible:8060/context/rest-service-fe/search-v1/reviewsForChangesets/BBNMS-JBBOS?userName=user&password=pass

I think my problem is knowing the correct way to write the closure that represents the body of the POST.

Can anyone set me straight? I know this is more of a groovy-wslite question than a Fisheye, but you guys will have the right context to give me the best answer.

BTW, if you mentioned what the problem it might help...

If it accepts a list it should probably be: ['12345','23456',' 34567']

Also I don't think userName and password is right, if anything will work I believe it's os_username and os_password (works for jira and confluence anyway).

I haven't used wslite, I use httpbuilder, for post a request looks like:

def xml = http.request(Method.POST, ContentType.XML) {
            uri.path = "/fisheye/rest-service/reviews-v1"
            requestContentType = ContentType.XML
            body = {
                createReview {
                    reviewData {
                        allowReviewersToJoin('true')
                        author {
                            userName('uadmin')
                        }
                        creator {
                            userName('uadmin')
                        }
                        description("some description")
                        jiraIssueKey(pkey + '-3')
                        moderator {
                            userName('uadmin')
                        }
                        projectKey('CR-' + pkey)
                        type('REVIEW')
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        def permaId = xml.permaId.id

For auth I do it like this:

http.client.addRequestInterceptor(new BasicAdminRequestInterceptor())


class BasicAdminRequestInterceptor implements HttpRequestInterceptor {
    void process(HttpRequest httpRequest, HttpContext httpContext) {
        httpRequest.addHeader('Authorization', 'Basic ' + "jamie:mypassword".bytes.encodeBase64().toString())
    }
}
