Get parameters through Json via POST

rawuler

Hello good afternoon!

I'm testing JsReport 2.4.0, I found the maximum tool, but I'm not able to get parameters that I send via POST, that is, I need to do a POST and get custom parameters to use in a GET within the Script in Layout. It's quite simple, I'll go through exactly the example below:

1 - I am sending via POST my URI (http://192.168.2.220:3100/api/report) the JSON below:

 {
	"template": {
		"recipe":"phantom-pdf",
		"engine":"handlebars",
		"contentType": "application/json",
		"shortid":"j~CwowY"
	},    
	"options": { "reportName": "myreportparams" },
	"scripts":[ { "shortid":"jAGaUdm" } ],
	"reports": { "save": true },
	"data":null,
	"params": [{ "chave":"RQ96HSnCByXeddf", "titulo":"RD37" }]
 }

I wanted to grab the JSON tag "params" and capture the two "key" and "title" elements to concatenate in a URL which will make a GET in an API.

Follows my script where it has got to be done, I already tested with static variables and it works, however I need to receive these parameters via POST in some way.

var getRequest = require('request').get

function beforeRender(req, res, done){

	// var chave = 'RQ96HSnCByXeddf'
	// var titulo = 'RD37'

getRequest('https://xxxxxxxxxxxx/apiRDlead/RDlead.php?chave=' + chave + '&titulo=' + titulo, 
	 
	function (err, resp, body) {
		if (err) {
			return done(err)
		}
		req.data = JSON.parse(body)
		done()
	})    
}

So how could I capture this json and handle the variables so I do the GET already mount with these parameters?

Tanks!!!

hi! this is possible if you send the params in the data property

{
	"template": {
		"recipe":"phantom-pdf",
		"engine":"handlebars",
		"contentType": "application/json",
		"shortid":"j~CwowY"
	},    
	"options": { "reportName": "myreportparams" },
	"scripts":[ { "shortid":"jAGaUdm" } ],
	"reports": { "save": true },
	"data": {
           "params": [{ "chave":"RQ96HSnCByXeddf", "titulo":"RD37" }]
         }
 }

then in your script just do:

var getRequest = require('request').get

function beforeRender(req, res, done){

	var chave = req.data.params[0].chave
	var titulo = req.data.params[0].titulo

getRequest('https://xxxxxxxxxxxx/apiRDlead/RDlead.php?chave=' + chave + '&titulo=' + titulo, 
	 
	function (err, resp, body) {
		if (err) {
			return done(err)
		}
		req.data = JSON.parse(body)
		done()
	})    
}
