I have created a url that I need to pass to police data API.
var api_url="http://policeapi2.rkh.co.uk/api/locate-neighbourhood?q="+latlon;
document.write(api_url);
The URL works when you manually input it into a browser, but I need some JavaScript that sends the API request and spits it onto the page. My JavaScript is ok but I have no knowledge of jQuery.
Thank you in advance, please keep it simple brainy folk.
try the following.. its is working
JS Fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/9AZyZ/
function abc(latLong){
$.ajax({
url: 'http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql',
data: {
q: "select * from json where url ='http://policeapi2.rkh.co.uk/api/locate-neighbourhood?q="+latLong+"'",
format: "json"
},
dataType: "jsonp",
success: function (data) {
alert(JSON.stringify(data));
},
error: function (result) {
alert("Sorry no data found.");
}
});
}

I do have api which consists more than 20k data, as of now am able to parse data through ajax script and set the value in list view, but its taking more time and responding slowly .
How can I improve the response ..
Please help.
$.ajax({
url: url,
dataType: "json",
data: ({User: userName,Pass: userPass}),
async: true,
success: function (result) {
$('#work-in-progress').fadeOut(0);
ajax.parseJSON(result);
},
error: function (request,error) {
alert('Network error has occurred please try again!');
document.getElementById("internet_access").innerHTML="No internet access";
}
});
I have a JSON file which i want to load end it is working fine when I am trying to load that file locally from my hard drive.
function save(){
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: 'cameras.json',
dataType: "JSON",
async : false,
success: function(data) {
var output = data.result["0"].Address;
alert(output);
},
error: function(data) {
alert("Error")
}
});
}
When i want to get access to this JSON file from my server:
function save(){
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: 'http://192.168.0.21:8080/json.html?type=cameras',
dataType: "JSON",
async : false,
success: function(data) {
var output = data.result["0"].Address;
alert(output);
},
error: function(data) {
alert("Error")
}
});
}
It's not working and I am getting error script.
What can be issue with that ?
I had the same problem.
Unfortunately, I think that remote (i.e. away from localhost) ajax calls are forbidden - or something similar - for security reasons.
Depending on your purposes, you can resolve the problem with a 2-steps action:
You can call - via ajax - a local server class which loads the remote file via REST web service.I solved this way...
I have this function, and every time I call it, I need the imagesUploadScript variable to be updated with a new URL. I've implemented in the server side a JSON response with the desired URL for each request, but I'm not able to get that JSON value with jQuery.
$(function () {
$('.editor').editorInsert({
editor: editor,
addons: {
images: {
imagesUploadScript: /* The url*/
}
});
});
I have tried this, but doesn't seem to work :S
$.getJSON("/admin/upload_url",function(result){
return JSON.stringify(result)
})
EDIT
I have restructured my code, this way my function accepts a callbacks as #Mohamad suggested and thanks to this question:
function getURL(callback) {
var url;
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
async: false,
url: "/admin/upload_url",
dataType: "json",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
success: function (data) {
url = data['url'];
callback(url);
} //success
});
}
But I'm not able to return the url for imagesUploadScript but yes this way
getURL(function(url){
console.log(url);
});
I'm confused, how should I declare this function inside the other one so imagesUploadScript get's a new URL every time is called ?
Thanks in advance for any help ! :D
How can I add a JSON file in jsfiddle? I have a JSON file but I am not able to attach it in jsfiddle. I can make a JSON object and use it, but is there any way to add an external JSON file to a fiddle?
Myjson.com provides api, which runs in Jsfiddle.net.
Custom my myjson:
// Loading JSON with CROS
var url = 'https://api.myjson.com/bins/3ko1q';
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: url,
async: false,
contentType: "application/json",
dataType: 'json',
success: function (data) {
alert('success');
console.log(data);
},
error: function (e) {
alert('error');
console.log(e);
}
});
Myjson GET Example:
// 1. Create valid uri via POST
// 2. GET using newly created uri
var obj = {
"key": "value",
"key2": "value2"
};
var data = JSON.stringify(obj);
$("#clickMe").click(function () {
$.ajax({
url: "https://api.myjson.com/bins",
type: "POST",
data: data,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function (data, textStatus, jqXHR) {
// load created json
$.get(data.uri, function (data, textStatus, jqXHR) {
var json = JSON.stringify(data);
$("#data").val(json);
});
}
});
});
You can harness the power of Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) to achieve your task.
Basically how CORS works is that if the Access-Control-Allow-Orign header is set in the HTTP response, then the content loaded by AJAX can be used in our script regardless of the fact it is on the same domain or some other.
Now for your purpose, you can upload your local JSON file to Dropbox's Public folder and get a Public URL, that you can load by a simple AJAX call.
The AJAX call will succeed in this case because Dropbox sets the following value in the response Access-Control-Allow-Orign:* which means any domain can use the loaded content.
Jquery code will be something like this(you can even use pure JavaScript if you prefer ).
var url = 'https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/94145612/example.json';
var myJsonData= {};
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: url,
async: false,
contentType: "application/json",
dataType: 'json',
success: function (data) {
alert('success');
console.log(data);
myJsonData= data;
},
error: function (e) {
alert('error');
console.log(e);
}
});
Example JSFiddle
Based on your comment, you want to use a pure JSON file as an external resource in a jsFiddle. You can't do this, because pure JSON is not JavaScript. Say you try to include http://example.com/foo.json as an external resource, and that file contains the following:
{"foo":"bar"}
This will result in Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token :, because the JSON object is not valid JavaScript by itself.
But if you assign the JSON object to a variable, like so:
var foo = {"foo":"bar"};
then no problem.
Solution: use a modified version of your file to initialize a variable for use in the jsFiddle.
I'm passing in authorization headers elsewhere, so I've gotten past that problem. If I alert(data) I get an object[Object], but am at a loss as to how to extract the data from that object. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
var albumAPI = "https://api.imgur.com/3/album/" + albumID + "/images";
$.ajax({
url: albumAPI,
type: 'GET',
dataType: 'json',
success: function(data) {
alert(data[0].link);
},
error: function() { console.log("ERRORZ"); },
beforeSend: setHeader
});
If you look at the data, it contains a property called data which is an array - so get the link to the first image
alert(data.data[0].link);
