WebAppUploadModule
Content
Introduction
This module performs the following task:
-
Upload a web-frontend to the webhosting-module
-
Automatically put the current apiomat.js-file of the application into the filesystem of the web-fronted deployed on the webhosting-module.
The module works as an post-request as it modifies the content on the server.
The Module depends on the module "Webhosting"
Configuration
Parameter-Name |
Typ |
Example |
Explanation |
customer |
Query-Paramter |
klaus |
The name of one valid customer of this server has to be transmitted. |
jspath |
Query-Parameter |
webcontent/scripts/vendor/apiomat/ |
This indicates the path where the apiomat.js-file should be put into the filesystem of the webhosting-module. For example, let's say you have put your frontend into a zip-file named "webcontent.zip" and you would like to put the apiomat.js into the subfolder "scripts/vendor/apiomat/". Just put the name of the zip-file infront of this path to form "webcontent/scripts/vendor/apiomat/". |

Binary-Data Body of Post |
webcontent.zip |
Your webfrontend compressed into a zip-file, transferred as binary data. |
The URL to reach the function is:
<host-base>/yambas/rest/modules/webappuploadmodule/<appname>/spec/upload?customer=<customer>&jspath=<jspath>
Examples
Before using the module, you have to add it to your application via the dashboard.
The Example will be sent with the following parameters:
-
Server-Address: https://epdemo.apiomat.enterprises
-
User-Name: michel@apiomat.com , Password: iAmAPassword
-
Application-Name: Vacation-App
-
System: LIVE
-
Custer-Name: epdemo
-
File to upload: webcontent.zip
-
Path inside the webcontent.zip where the apiomat.js-File should be put: webcontent/build/
This adds up to the URL:
https:
//epdemo.apiomat.enterprises/yambas/rest/modules/webappuploadmodule/VacationApp/spec/upload?customer=epdemo&jspath=webcontent/build/
Example with Postman
get Postman: https://www.getpostman.com/
1. Authorization
2. Set Headers:
3. Set Body
Here you have to put in the .zip-File with your web-frontend as binary-data!
Example with Java
Using the Apache http-Client library: https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/index.html .
String url =
"https://epdemo.apiomat.enterprises/yambas/rest/modules/webappuploadmodule/VacationApp/spec/upload?customer=epdemo&jspath=webcontent/build/"
;
String relativePathToWebfrontendZip =
"META-INF/webcontent.zip"
;
String username = michel
@apiomat
.com;
String password = iAmAPassword;
String apiKey =
123456789
;
String system =
"LIVE"
;
public
void
post() {
InputStream payLoad = getClass().getResourceAsStream(relativePathToWebfrontendZip);
PostMethod request =
new
PostMethod(url);
String credentials = username +
":"
+ password;
String encoded =
new
String(Base64.encodeBase64(credentials.getBytes(
"UTF-8"
)),
"UTF-8"
);
requestMethod.setRequestHeader(
"Authorization"
,
"Basic "
+ encoded);
request.setRequestHeader(
"ContentType"
,
"application/json"
);
request.setRequestHeader(
"x-apiomat-apikey"
, apiKey);
request.setRequestHeader(
"x-apiomat-system"
, system);
request.setRequestEntity(
new
InputStreamRequestEntity(payLoad));
try
{
this
.client.executeMethod(request);
}
catch
(IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return
request;
}
Confirm if upload worked
This step obviously is optional.
-
Download Filezilla to access the server via FTP ( https://filezilla-project.org/ )
-
Use Filezilla to connect to the FTP-Server by entering the admin-credentials of your server
-
When connected succesfully, the right panel will show all applications currently deployed on this server. Search for your application
-
Open the folder of your application and navigate to the folder which you passed by the "jspath"-variable. There you should find the apiomat.js-file
