Am I testing the wrong URLs?

[Thomas Sødring]

Hi,


Thanks for the feedback.  Short answer, No.

This version of the core now requires a JSON payload when creating Noark
entities (fonds, series, file etc.). These payload (request body)
contains information that is specified as mandatory by the standard. So
missing information / payload will result in a "404 Not found" with an
exception description "malformed payload", or something like that.

A working curl example command to create a fonds (arkiv) looks like:

curl  --header Accept:application/vnd.noark5-v4+json --header
Content-Type:application/vnd.noark5-v4+json -X POST -b
/home/tsodring/tmp/cookie.txt --data @./fonds-data.json
http://localhost:8092/noark5v4/hateoas-api/arkivstruktur/ny-arkiv

Payload files e.g fonds-data.json can be found in the following directory :

nikita-noark5-core/core-webapp/src/main/resources/curl

see also

nikita-noark5-core/core-webapp/src/main/resources/curl/import if you
want to set values yourself rather than allowing the core to see it.

If this doesn't solve the problem, can you see if the 404 contains any
more information? But I'm guessing that it is just a missing payload.

Can you cd into nikita-noark5-core/core-webapp/src/main/resources/curl
and run the ./run_curl.sh command to make sure everything is ok?

I will update the project description to reflect this.
