jQuery AJAX not receiving JSON from http request - javascript

I ame using html with some jQuery to try out some JSON requests. I did a bit of research and tried making something small just to test it out. but when i run the script in my browser(Google Chrome) i dont get anything besides my html/css stuff. here is the code:
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js">
console.log("Test");
console.log($.get("https://prod.api.pvp.net/api/lol/euw/v1.1/summoner/by-name/kerrie?api_key=[key]"));
</script>
*[key] is my key from the api owners(not to be shared on the internet).
when i check the network tab it says "304, not modified" i dont if this has anything to do wit it.
I'm just starting with websites and JavaScript/jQuery any help would be helpfull.

For better understanding you can call ajax method as below
$.ajax({
url: 'https://prod.api.pvp.net/api/lol/euw/v1.1/summoner/by-name/kerrie?api_key=[key]',
type: 'GET',
dataType: 'JSON',
async: false,
error: function(){},
success: function(resp){
// resp variable will be your JSON responce
}
}
});

How to get a json response from yaler

I create an account with yaler, to comunicate with my arduino yun. It works fine, and i'm able to switch on and off my leds.
Then i created a web page, with a button that calls an ajax function with GET method to yaler (yaler web server accept REST style on the URL)
$.ajax({
url: "http://RELAY_DOMAIN.try.yaler.net/arduino/digital/13/1",
dataType: "json",
success: function(msg){
var jsonStr = msg;
},
error: function(err){
alert(err.responseText);
}
});
This code seem to work fine, infact the led switches off and on, but i expect a json response in success function (msg) like this:
{
"command":"digital",
"pin":13,
"value":1,
"action":"write"
}
But i get an error (error function). I also tried to alert the err.responseText, but it is undefined....
How could i solve the issue? Any suggestions???
Thanks in advance....
If the Web page containing the above Ajax request is served from a different origin, you'll have to work around the same origin policy of your Web browser.
There are two ways to do this (based on http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=304804):
CORS, i.e. adding the header Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * to the Yun Web service
JSONP, i.e. getting the Yun to serve an additional JS function if requested by the Ajax call with a query parameter ?callback=?
CORS can probably be configured in the OpenWRT part of the Yun, while JSONP could be added to the Brige.ino code (which you seem to be using).
I had the same problem. I used JSONP to solve it. JSONP is JSON with padding. Basically means you send the JSON data with a sort of wrapper.
Instead of just the data you have to send a Java Script function and this is allowed by the internet.
So instead of your response being :
{"command":"digital","pin":13,"value":0,"action":"write"}
It should be:
showResult({command:"analog",pin:13,value:0,action:"write"});
I changed the yunYaler.ino to do this.
So for the html :
var url = 'http://try.yaler.net/realy-domain/analog/13/210';
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: url,
async: false,
jsonpCallback: 'showResult',
contentType: "application/json",
dataType: 'jsonp',
success: function(json) {
console.dir(json.action);
},
error: function(e) {
console.log(e.message);
}
});
};
function showResult(show)
{
var str = "command = "+show.command;// you can do the others the same way.
alert (str);
}
My JSON is wrapped with a showResult() so its made JSONP and its the function I called in the callback.
Hope this helps. If CORS worked for you. Could you please put up how it worked here.

Using JSONP with flaskr and javascript

I'm using Flaskr to generate data via a RESTful API. My call looks like:
http get localhost:5000/v1.0/dataset dataset_id==f7e7510b3c1c4337be339446ca000d22
and returns something like:
{"sites": "a"}
Now I'm tring to fetch this data with my web app. I first ran into a cross-domain error, but after some reading, found out that I could by-pass that error by using jsonp. Basically copying a piece of code I found here, I put this together (I'm new to JavaScript):
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
(function($) {
var url = 'http://localhost:5000/v1.0/dataset?dataset_id=f7e7510b3c1c4337be339446ca000d22&callback=?';
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: url,
async: false,
jsonpCallback: 'jsonCallback',
contentType: "application/json",
dataType: 'jsonp',
success: function(json) {
console.dir(json.sites);
},
error: function(e) {
console.log(e.message);
$('#data').html('the error was thrown');
}
});
})(jQuery);
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id = 'data'></div>
<p> place holder </p>
</body>
and accordingly changed my python response to look like:
"jsonCallback({\"sites\":\"a\"});"
If this helps, my flaskr return line is the following:
return callback_function + '({"sites":"a"});'
I'm fairly confident my python side of the problem is good, but I'm not well versed enough in JS to determine where the error is coming from. My goal is to simply display my data on the page.
I'm not sure what's not working with your code. Because you haven't written any error message or what happens when your code runs.
Any way the following script does a JSONP request to http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users/1/todos service and returns one todo item. I have used this only to have a service that returns some data.
If you are going to the developer console in your browser to network and click on the request to the rest service you'll see under response that jQuery is adding a callback to the JSON so you don't need to add it in your URL.
See the following screenshot. (The screenshot is from Firefox.)
I have added a working ajax example below. If you prefer jsFiddle, you'll find the same example here.
(function ($) {
//var url = 'http://localhost:5000/v1.0/dataset?dataset_id=f7e7510b3c1c4337be339446ca000d22';
var url = 'http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos/1'; // dummy url
var jsonCallback = function (data) {
console.log(data);
$('#data').html(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));
};
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: url,
contentType: "application/json",
dataType: 'jsonp'
}).done(jsonCallback)
.fail(function (xhr) {
alert("error" + xhr.responseText);
});
})(jQuery);
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<pre id='data'></pre>

How to Get Response From rest URL using jquery

I have a URL https://aua.maharashtra.gov.in/aua/rest/checkauastatus
When I visit the URL in a browser, I get an XML response. I want to collect that response in a String using Javascript or jQuery. I tried many things but nothing worked.
Please help me to get that response in a String.
Try this:
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url:'https://aua.maharashtra.gov.in/aua/rest/checkauastatus',
success: function(response)
{
alert(response);
}
Just see if your expected reponse is coming or not.
Hope this helps.
If you are trying to make a request to other domains, use the below code for reference.
$.ajax({
url: 'https://aua.maharashtra.gov.in/aua/rest/checkauastatus',
dataType: 'jsonp',
jsonpCallback: 'dataResult',
jsonp: 'callback',
});
function dataResult(data) {
//Access your data here.
};
If you are calling ajax with different domain , then ajax will not work, You have to call your server and collect data. For e.g using curl, then return as response. You can also use jsonp if it supports.

jQuery $.ajax done callback not firing

I have the following code :
$("#loginSubmitButton").on("click",function(){
var loginUserDetails = {
email: $("#email").val(),
password: $("#password").val()
};
//Send the AJAX request to authenticate the user
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/somewebservice/v1/users/authenticate",
data: JSON.stringify(loginUserDetails),
contentType: "application/json;charset=UTF-8",
dataType: "json",
}).done(function() {
$("#loginResult").text("Login successful");
})
.fail(function() {
$("#loginResult").text("Login failed");
});
});
As per the jquery documentation (unless I am understanding something incorrectly) I expect the done to be fired if I receive a 200 OK from my web server. However, in chrome console I can see a 200 OK response but jquery seems to fire the fail handler.
Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong here?
You need to remove:
dataType: "json"
There are lots of suggestions to remove
dataType: "json"
While I grant that this works it's probably ignoring the underlying issue. It's most likely caused by a parser error (the browser parsing the json response). Firstly examine the XHR parameter in either .always() or .fail().
Assuming it is a parser fail then why? Perhaps the return string isn't JSON. Or it could be errant whitespace at the start of the response. Consider having a look at it in fiddler. Mine looked like this:
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
{"type":"scan","data":{"image":".\/output\/ou...
In my case this was a problem with PHP spewing out unwanted characters (in this case UTF file BOMs). Once I removed these it fixed the problem while also keeping
dataType: json
If your server returns empty string for a json response (even if with a 200 OK), jQuery treats it as failed. Since v1.9, an empty string is considered invalid json.
Whatever is the cause, a good place to look at is the 'data' parameter passed to the callbacks:
$.ajax( .. ).always(function(data) {
console.log(JSON.stringify(data));
});
Its contents will give you an understanding of what's wrong.
Need to remove , from dataType: "json",
dataType: "json"
The ajax URL must be the same domain. You can't use AJAX to access cross-domain scripts. This is because of the Same Origin Policy.
add "dataType:JSONP" to achieve cross domain communication
use below code
$.ajax({
URL: cross domain
dataType: 'jsonp'
// must use dataType:JSONP to achieve cross domain communication, otherwise done function would not called.
// jquery ajax will return "statustext error" at }).always(function(data){}
}).always(function(data){
alert(JSON.stringify(data));
}
A few things that should clear up your issue and a couple hints in general.
Don't listen for a click on a submit button. You should wait for the submit event on the form.
The data option for $.ajax isn't expecting a JSON string. It wants a serialized string or an array with name and value objects. You can create either of those easily with .serialize() or .serializeArray().
Here is what I was thinking for your script.
$('#form-with-loginSubmitButton').on('submit', function(e){
e.preventDefault():
var $form = $(this),
data = $form.serializeArray();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/somewebservice/v1/users/authenticate",
data: data
}).done(function(result){
console.log(result);
});
});

getting json string from web service

I have got a web service which gets list of users from an external system and returns as json. and I call that webservice via jquery ajax.; I have placed ajax code below
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: webMethod,
data:"",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "jsonp",
success: function(msg) {
alert(msg.d);
},
error: function(e) {
alert(e);
}
});
Even though, the output is in correct format, the output I get from jquery.ajax seems to be wrong. it returns big chunk of the data correctly, then adds "; (" and continues to show the output.
Basically, the output is ("around %75 of data");(rest of the data) which makes my json invalid. I am not sure whether it is related to the maxJasonLenght or not but I also set it to the maximum. there seems to be a limitation on how much data you can get from web service as if I add more data to that json, the break down point changes.
Sample Output
[{"UserName":"a.b","FullName":"a b"},{ Many other users},{"UserName":"c.d","FullName":"c d"},{"UserName":"e.f",);jsonp1364397526212("FullName":"e f"}, {"UserName":"g.h","FullName":"g f"},{other users}}
do you have any idea why I am having this issue?
Thanks
Do you set the crossDomain option to TRUE? If I'm not wrong, if you set the crossDomain option to TRUE, the response would be JSON-P.
Look at this post so you can figure out how to handle the response:
What is JSONP all about?
I hope it would help!
