I'm trying to create a POST request using angular.js to this Django view.
class PostJSON4SlickGrid(View):
"""
REST POST Interface for SlickGrid to update workpackages
"""
def post(self, request, root_id, wp_id, **kwargs):
print "in PostJSON4SlickGrid"
print request.POST
return HttpResponse(status=200)
Therefore I created this resource.
myModule.factory('gridData', function($resource) {
//define resource class
var root = {{ root.pk }};
return $resource('{% url getJSON4SlickGrid root.pk %}:wpID/', {wpID:'@id'},{
get: {method:'GET', params:{}, isArray:true},
update:{method:'POST'}
});
});
Calling the get method in a controller works fine. The url gets translated to http://127.0.0.1:8000/pm/rest/tree/1/.
function gridController($scope, gridData){
gridData.get(function(result) {
console.log(result);
$scope.treeData = result;
//broadcast that asynchronous xhr call finished
$scope.$broadcast('mySignal', {fake: 'Hello!'});
});
}
While I m facing issues executing the update/POST method.
item.$update();
The URL gets translated to http://127.0.0.1:8000/pm/rest/tree/1/345, which is missing a trailing slash. This can be easily circumvented when not using a trailing slash in your URL definition.
url(r'^rest/tree/(?P<root_id>\d+)/(?P<wp_id>\d+)$', PostJSON4SlickGrid.as_view(), name='postJSON4SlickGrid'),
instead of
url(r'^rest/tree/(?P<root_id>\d+)/(?P<wp_id>\d+)/$', PostJSON4SlickGrid.as_view(), name='postJSON4SlickGrid'),
Using the workaround without the trailing slash I get now a 403 (Forbidden) status code, which is probably due to that I do not pass a django post angularjs
