Help with getCallWith

[DanH]

I'm being a donut and can't figure out how to get the value out of my json, help please!

const var V =
{
    "VERSIONnumber" : "version"

};

function VersionCheck()
{
Server.setBaseURL("https://mywebsite");	
	Server.callWithGET("/VERSION.json", V, function(status, response) {
		
	Console.print(version);

	});

}

[Lindon]

@DanH

V.VERSIONnumber

[DanH]

@Lindon Thanks for the help, so that prints 'version' rather than the value in my json on my server.

Console.print(V.VERSIONnumber);

[d.healey]

@DanH The response from your server is in the response variable ;)

[DanH]

@d-healey aahh ok, great, make sense, thanks both!

[Lindon]

@DanH so you are likely getting a string back in response, so...

reg myJSON = response.parseAsJSON();
Console.print(myJSON.VERSIONnumber);

@Lindon if the string is a JSON it will parse it automatically for you.

so you are saying this works?

response.VERSIONnumber

[Christoph Hart]

@Lindon yes

[Lindon]

@Christoph-Hart cool.

Can you guys give me a hand with a simple POST request? I probably need a tee-shirt, but I can't see what I'm doing wrong.
In short: I'm sending my name to a php script, and I'm expecting to get a response containing a status and message formatted in json.
My php code looks like this:
https://www.mytestserver.xyz/testing/simple-response.php

<?php
  // check if form has been submitted
  if (isset($_POST["name"])) {
    $name = $_POST["name"];
    // create response array
    $response = array(
      "status" => "success",
      "message" => "Hello, " . $name . "!"
    );
    // return response as JSON
    header("Content-Type: application/json");
    echo json_encode($response);
  } else {
    // return error if form has not been submitted
    $response = array(
      "status" => "error",
      "message" => "No name provided."
    );
    header("Content-Type: application/json");
    echo json_encode($response);
  }
?>

If I navigate to the page, I get an expected response:

{
"status":"error",
"message":"No name provided."
}

If I use postman.co and enter in some key data, I get an expected response:

My HISE script looks like this:

Server.setBaseURL("https://mytestserver.xyz/");
const var Button1 = Content.getComponent("Button1");


inline function simpleRequest()
{
	local parameter = 
	{
		"name": "thisismyname"
	};
	
	Server.callWithPOST("testing/simple-response.php", parameter, function(status, response)
	{
		Console.print(trace(response));
	});
};


inline function onButton1Control(component, value)
{
	if(value)
	{
		simpleRequest();
	}

};

Content.getComponent("Button1").setControlCallback(onButton1Control);

The response is timing out

I'm sure it's something simple that I'm overlooking. Anyone see an issue?

I think you need to use the return keyword to get the value, and just return the array, don't use json_encode.

[Dan Korneff]

@d-healey instead of echo?

Trying that, I get this error when I navigate to the page in a web browser:

SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected end of data at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

And there is no change when I try in hise

EDIT: just re-read your reply. Trying that now.
ok tried

<?php
  // check if form has been submitted
  if (isset($_POST["name"])) {
    $name = $_POST["name"];
    // create response array
    $response = array(
      "status" => "success",
      "message" => "Hello, " . $name . "!"
    );
    // return response as JSON
    header("Content-Type: application/json");
    return $response;
  } else {
    // return error if form has not been submitted
    $response = array(
      "status" => "error",
      "message" => "No name provided."
    );
    header("Content-Type: application/json");
    return $response;
  }
?>

Getting the same syntax error. I believe "return" only works within a function

@Dan-Korneff

Getting the same syntax error. I believe "return" only works within a function

Ah yeah that's right. I didn't notice it was outside a function. Try putting it in a function, see if it makes a difference...

[Dan Korneff]

@d-healey does this look right?

<?php
function simpleResponse()
{
    // check if form has been submitted
  if (isset($_POST["name"])) {
    $name = $_POST["name"];
    // create response array
    $response = array(
      "status" => "success",
      "message" => "Hello, " . $name . "!"
    );
    // return response as JSON
    header("Content-Type: application/json");
    return $response;
  } else {
    // return error if form has not been submitted
    $response = array(
      "status" => "error",
      "message" => "No name provided."
    );
    header("Content-Type: application/json");
    return $response;
  }
}

echo $response;
?>

Not working here

[d.healey]

@Dan-Korneff Where are you calling the function?

[d.healey]

Actually forget about that. I just tested on my localhost and your original code works here.

I modified it slightly but I don't think it makes a difference.

<?php
  // check if form has been submitted
    $response = [];

  if (isset($_POST["name"])) {
    $name = $_POST["name"];
    // create response array
    $response = array(
      "status" => "success",
      "message" => "Hello, " . $name . "!"
    );
    // return response as JSON
    header("Content-Type: application/json");
  } else {
    // return error if form has not been submitted
    $response = array(
      "status" => "error",
      "message" => "No name provided."
    );
    header("Content-Type: application/json");
  }
  echo json_encode($response)
?>

[d.healey]

Oh I see your mistake (I think) you are missing www. in your url.

[Dan Korneff]

@d-healey My hero!!! that was it
