Curl hangs when trying to do a POST on a mysql db - mysql

I am using CURL to issue a POST request and sending a JSON to populate a mysql db. The issue it that curl hangs when I
issue this command. If I use the RESTClient with firefox, it works perfectly and I can populate the db with the json passed.
Its only when I am issuing the CURL that this happens.
If I remove my implementation inside the POST and just do a simple System.Out.Print, this works just fine.
Here is my curl command :
curl -i -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"Time":"Dec 27, 2012 15:44:12","firstName":"John","lastName":"Doe",
"totalSalary":"10000"}' http://localhost:8080/Person/people/
Kindly let me know where I am going wrong.
Thanks,
Jack

How to update junit test result in to Xray using cypress javascript

I was looking at the documentation of the Xray plugin : https://docs.getxray.app/display/XRAY/Import+Execution+Results+-+REST#ImportExecutionResultsREST-JUnitXMLresultsMultipart
And what I found, is a bit confusing, after a few attempts. If I'm NOT trying to import executions using the multipart
In their examples I see no way to send the test execution key for it to be updated. Which is strange, because by importing without multipart, I can set it.
The below curl command I am using to upload test result.
curl -H "Content-Type: text/xml" -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $token" --data #"results/test-results.xml" https://xray.cloud.xpand-it.com/api/v1/import/execution/junit?projectKey=####
Anyone has any idea how to achieve this?

How to GET data of a key in json using curl?

Sorry Pretty noob to json.
Basically I have a simple server where I can upload data in there.
E.g:
curl -vX PUT "http://IP:port/ABC" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d #"Once Upon a time."
After when I do:
curl -vX GET "http://IP:port/ABC" -H "Content-Type: application/json"
I get:
{"reverse_shell":
{"aliases":{},"mappings":{},"settings":
{"index":{"creation_date":"1561863982371","number_of_shards":"5","number_of_replicas":"1","uuid":"IAWE83rYQqmtKW-9svkBVg","version":{"created":"6040299"},"provided_name":"ABC"}
}
}
}
As you can see there is no where mentioning Once Upon a time, so is there I am missing? or how do I get that data from json using curl?
I am in kali linux env.
It looks like you are trying to post a string as a file.
When you specify a "#" with -d this tells curl to send the data from a file called "Once Upon a time."
If you are trying to put a file then you should do:
my_text_file.txt
Once Upon a time.
curl -vX PUT "http://IP:port/ABC" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d #./my_text_file.txt https://server/api/path

Sending POST Request from bash script

I want to execute a bash script after i make a POST request.So far i am using Postman for sending the request , but i was wondering if i can somehow do it from a bash script as well with a json file as parameter.
I have looked into curl so far but it does not work:
bash file
curl -X POST -d req.json http://localhost:9500
Json file (req.json)
{
"id":5,
"name":"Dan",
"age":33,
"cnp":33,
"children":100,
"isMarried":0
}
I just get the error :
HTTP/1.0 503 Service Unavailable
with the trailing HTML
curl should do the job. This will send a normal POST request using the data in req.json as the body:
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d #req.json http://localhost:9500
The elements you were missing are -H "Content-Type: application/json" and the # in the data flag. Without the -H flag as above curl will send a content type of application/x-www-form-urlencoded, which most applications won't accept if they expect JSON. The # in the -d flag informs curl that you are passing a file name; otherwise it uses the text itself (i.e. "req.json") as the data.

Have an R Plumber API consume JSON on POST

I'm writing and API in R using plumber that ideally will consume the JSON it receives on POST. But I cannot get the endpoint POST example to work that way, so I'm probably missing something obvious.
Using the example URL and Curl I can do the following without issue:
curl -i -X POST http://plumber.tres.tl/append/append -d "val=50"
But the way the example is presented:
POST {val: 50} -> http://plumber.tres.tl/append/append
Suggests that JSON would also be allowed. So I have tried:
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"val":50}' http://plumber.tres.tl/append/append
And all the variation to ensure UTF-8 encoding, comment out the " and all kinds of other combinations based mostly on what I found here on Stackoverflow about post. For example:
curl -i -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://plumber.tres.tl/append/append -d '{"val":50}'
curl -i -X POST -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://plumber.tres.tl/append/append -d '{\"val\":50}'
curl -i -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8" http://plumber.tres.tl/append/append -d '{"val":50}'
Also using a file and trying to post it as #my.json did not work.
Maybe it is something on the Plumber side: I would expect that given the toolset to serialize the output, I can also state the expected serialization of the input. But I have not found how to do that.
This turned out to be a relatively simple issue with plumber. The function postBodyFilter calls parseQS that in turn splits on & and = and does not yet check for JSON formats (for example based on an initial { and ending }).
Since jsonlite was already imported by the package I proposed a small change to add basic JSON support in pull request #53.
Following the example in the README, the following will work after adding this patch:
curl --data '{"a":4, "b":5}' http://localhost:8000/sum
Since the call is on jsonlite to parse the content of the querystring, more complex JSON should also be possible, but I have not tested that yet.
Update : This has now been merged into the plumber project and will work for you if you install the version from github using devtools::install_github("trestletech/plumber"), or through a traditional install as soon as version 0.3.1 is available on CRAN.

Github returns "Problems parsing JSON" when trying to create repo using curl

I'm attempting to create a repo on github using curl. No matter how I attempt to format my JSON it always returns "Problems parsing JSON". Is there something I'm missing? Here is my statement:
curl --data '{"name":"newRepoName"}' -XPOST -u username:password http://giturl
Strange since it works for me. Are you using the correct GitHub API endpoint (/user/repos)?
curl --data '{"name":"testrepo"}' -X POST -u username https://api.github.com/user/repos
Try including your token or password like this
curl --data '{"name":"testrepo"}' \
-X POST -u username:$TOKEN \
https://api.github.com/user/repos
