Updating Github Issue Body with Ajax - javascript

I've been successfully able to pull an issue, but not update it. My goal is to update the body of the issue with a new string. Per the documentation here I understand I need to do a "PATCH". This is what I have so far:
var patchedIssue = $.ajax({
dataType: "json",
type: 'PATCH',
body: newBodyText,
url: issueURL,
success: function(data){
console.log("success");
}
});
But when I do that in the network tab I see a Status code of 422: Unprocessable Entity. Response message from the API is "Invalid request.For 'links/1/schema', nil is not an object."
If I remove the "body" line I get the same error
Any thoughts? To get the body text I literally did the same as above but with "GET" instead of patch, and then the body text was "patchedIssue.responseJSON.body"

Figured it out, needed a "data" key.
This successfully replaced the body text:
patchedIssue = $.ajax({
dataType: "json",
type: 'PATCH',
url: issueURL,
data: '{"body":"test"}',
success: function(data){
console.log("success?");
}
});

Undefined index Jquery Ajax POST

I have this small but annoying problem. I really not usual with a web thing. I try to request to my php file using ajax jquery. When I want to retrieve the data I send from ajax, it return undefined index. I dunno what's the problem, it make me spend a lot of time to solve it. Thanks
Below is my ajax code
var at=this.name.substring(this.name.length,7);
var value_header = $("#key"+at).val();
var jsObj = { new_value:value_header, id:at, data:'header'};
console.log(JSON.stringify(jsObj));
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
headers: 'application/urlformencoded',
url: 'admin_crud.php',
data: jsObj,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function(data){
console.log("Sukses");
}
When I call the below code in my php file, the result is 'Undefined index: data'
echo $_POST['data'];
//Edit
So, when I try var_dump($_POST);, the result is array(0) {}. Where is my mistake? I thought I had send the right one
//Edit
As I mention above, I want it to run perfect without error. Thanks
Remove headers, change your datatype to text and catch errors in the ajax call
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
dataType: "text",
data: jsObj,
url: "admin_crud.php",
success: function (result) {
console.log("success", result);
},
error: function (e) {
console.log("Unsuccessful:", e);
}
});
I have another solution beside #Marco Sanchez too, I don't know it always work or not, but in my case, it work :
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'admin_crud.php',
headers: "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
data: "new_value="+value_header+"&id="+at+"&data=header",
success: function(data){
console.log("Sukses");
console.log(data);
}
});

Ajax POST error (400 BAD REQUEST)

and thank you in advance for helping me.
I'm trying to make a POST where I pass the TOKEN in the URL and I want to pass another param too so I can save the info in the DB. I have this:
$("#btnAddCompany").click(function(e) {
var token = "123";
var companyValue = document.getElementById("companyValue").value;
var obj ={CompanyId: 4 ,Name: companyValue }
var postData = JSON.stringify(obj);
console.log(postData);
$.ajax({
type: "POST", //REQUEST TYPE
dataType: "json", //RESPONSE TYPE
contentType: "application/json",
data: postData,
url: "http://banametric.ddns.net/BanaMetricWebServices/BanaSov_WS.svc/CompanySave/"+token,
success: function(data) {
toastr.success("Lidl Adicionado!");
},
error: function(err) {
console.log("AJAX error in request: " + JSON.stringify(err, null, 2));
}
}).always(function(jqXHR, textStatus) {
if (textStatus != "success") {
alert("Error: " + jqXHR.statusText);
}
})
});
But I'm getting an 400 error (Bad Request) so I assume that I'm making something wrong, but I don't find out what. The error trace is this:
AJAX error in request: { "readyState": 4, "responseText": "\r\n
The server encountered an error processing the request. The
exception message is 'The incoming message has an unexpected message
format 'Raw'. The expected message formats for the operation are
'Xml', 'Json'. This can be because a WebContentTypeMapper has not been
configured on the binding. See server logs for more
details. The exception stack trace is: \r\n at
System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.DemultiplexingDispatchMessageFormatter.DeserializeRequest(Message
message, Object[] parameters)\r\n at
It's error because of
The expected message formats for the operation are 'Xml', 'Json'.
So you can pass contentType in your ajax call
$.ajax({
....,
contentType: "application/json"
})
I am not sure, but it depends on what server wants to read from you.
Server does not want to read raw bytes, it wants xml or json
Try to add headers like
beforeSend: function(xhrObj){
xhrObj.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/json");
xhrObj.setRequestHeader("Accept","application/json");
},
in $.ajax() function
You need to set the content type header in your request to inform the server you're sending the data as JSON.
The error message is telling you that the server does not understand the content you're sending it - you have to give it a hint that the data is in a particular format, especially because, again as mentioned in the error message, it allows you to submit in more than one different format (JSON or XML in this case).
Adding
contentType: "application/json"
to the options in your $.ajax call should resolve the issue.
P.S. We can't see the signature of your controller method but it's possible you may also need to give your parameter a name within the JSON, e.g. something like data: JSON.stringify({ "companyValue": postData }); , but there's not enough info in your question to say for certain what the correct structure should be.
$("body").on("submit", ".example_form", function() {
$.ajax({
url: 'http://example.com/{ROUTE_URL}',
data: new FormData(this),
processData: false,
contentType: false,
/* OR contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8"*/
type: 'POST',
dataType: "json",
success: function(data) {
console.log(data);
}
});
});
Instead of this
var postData = JSON.stringify(companyValue);
why don't you try this:
var obj ={token :token ,companyValue:companyValue }
And then make use of the json stringify function
var postData = JSON.stringify(obj);
After that in ajax call only change the url:
url: "http://webservice/CompanySave/"

Jsonp returned from ajax doesn't show on console

I'm calling a page (external, on other domain), with this code:
var instagram_container = $('div#instagram-answer');
if (instagram_container.length>0)
{
var url = 'http://www.xxxx.it/admin/get_instagram_token';
$.ajax({
type : 'GET',
url : url,
async : false,
jsonpCallback: 'jsonCallback',
contentType: 'application/json',
dataType: 'jsonp',
success: function(response)
{
console.log(response);
instagram_container.html(response.client_id);
},
error: function(e)
{
console.log(e);
}
});
}
I have answer with console.log(e) (basically it recognizes as error)?
Object { readyState=4, status=200, statusText="success", altri elementi...}
But in Firebug, under NET tab, I have the right answer...
This is the console. Line 19 is exactly the
console.log(e);
in error section.
My goal is obtain that Json. Thank you
Is your server returning plain text, or an actual JSON file? Jquery will ignore the response if the server returned a string instead of JSON.
The response type should be: "application/json"
EDIT:
I'd recommend you to use the basic jquery ajax call:
$.ajax({
url: "test.html",
cache: false
})
.done(function( response ) {
console.log(response);
});

Server does not receive data from ajax call

I have a problem. I'm trying to send content of a textarea with an ajax call, but it doesn't seem to be working, and I don't know why.
There's the method called GetStatus(string statusText) which need to receive the content.
Here's the javascript code:
$("#btnSaveStatus").on("click", function () {
var statusText = $(".textareaEdit").val();
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "Default.aspx/GetStatus",
data: "{statusText:'" + statusText + "'}",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function (result) {
// $('#littlbioID').text(result.d);
}
});
});
Please advise. You should also know that I'm new into web development.
You can't have a request body in a GET request, you have to use a POST request for that
The string you are constrcting is not valid JSON since:
Property names must be strings
You have no idea what the user will enter in the textarea - it might contain characters with special meaning in JSON
Generate your JSON programatically.
{
type: "POST",
url: "Default.aspx/GetStatus",
data: JSON.stringify({
statusText: statusText
}),
// etc
Obviously, the server side of the process needs to be set up to accept a POST request with a JSON body (instead of the more standard URL Form Encoded format) as well.
Try this:
$("#btnSaveStatus").on("click", function () {
var statusText = $(".textareaEdit").val();
var jsonText = new Object();
jsonText.statusText = statusText;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "Default.aspx/GetStatus",
data: JSON.stringify(jsonText);,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function (result) {
// $('#littlbioID').text(result.d);
}
});
});

Accessing ajax POST response in javascript

I'm making ajax POST request from javascript function:
function UpdateMetrics() {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "MyHandler.ashx?Param1=value1",
data: "{}",
contentType: "text/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "text",
success: function (msg) {
var jsonUpdatedData = msg;
...
}
});
}
From my handler, I'm sending json string with:
context.Response.write(json);
I think I'll get it in msg.
I also want to send other string (count). So I'm trying to use header info along with json data. So I added this line:
context.Response.Headers.Add("MaxCount",Convert.ToString(tempList.Count));
If this is right way to do it, how can I access it in my success function?
To access headers in your success function, add in 2 more arguments to your function, the status code and the jqXHR object, which you can read the documentation for at api.jquery.com.
So, your function should look like:
success: function (msg, status, jqXHR) {
var jsonUpdatedData = msg;
...
}
However, as pointed out in comments, it's probably best not to use the header to send data. You should probably just include it in the json you send out.
You also need to tell jQuery to interpret the response as json by setting
dataType: "json"
Otherwise, it will just be returned to you as text.
Your requirement to get the header data in ajax post success can be achieved using getResponseHeader method please refer the below code snippet.
function UpdateMetrics() {
var callback = $.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "MyHandler.ashx?Param1=value1",
data: "{}",
contentType: "text/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "text",
success: function (msg) {
var jsonUpdatedData = msg;
var headerdata = callback.getResponseHeader("MaxCount");
// Where MaxCount is name provided in the header.
...
}
});
}
Thanks
