Python

These examples use a variety of python libraries.

For HTTP GET/POST requests, there are two that seem to work:

1. urllib2 / json - working for basic GET requests
2. requests - works for GET and POST requests

To install these, simply use the following command (on Linux. Windows How-To coming soon):

pip install requests
pip install json

More information about the Requests library can be found here: Python Request Quickstart Guide

Notes

1. For POST requests, it seems you need to format the request a specific way.

   This is an example of a request that should work, given a valid iSENSE URL:

   import json
   url = 'http://rsense-dev.cs.uml.edu/api/v1/projects/744/jsonDataUpload'
   payload = {'FIELDS': '[DATA, DATA, DATA]'}
   headers = {'content-type': 'application/json'}
   r = requests.post(url, data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers)

   The above code is based off of the following page: Python Requests JSON content

2. To get the fields for an iSENSE project, go to the following URL:

   http://rsense-dev.cs.uml.edu/api/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID

   (Replace PROJECT_ID with the ID of the project you want to use.)
