Question

When i tried with Fire Fox Open HttpRequest Addon, i was able to put sucessfully.

PUT http://12.222.20.17:8080/qcbin/rest/domains/test/projects/runtest/runs/385762
Accept: application/xml
Content-Type: application/xml
<Entity Type="run"> 
    <Fields> 
         <Field Name="status"> 
               <Value>Passed</Value> 
         </Field> 
     </Fields> 
</Entity>

 -- response --
200 OK
Server:  Apache-Coyote/1.1

But i am trying to simulate same operation with TCL PUT method http package, i am getting Bad Request response

set xml {<Entity Type="run"><Fields><Field Name="status"><Value>Passed</Value></Field></Fields></Entity>}
set Headers(Cookie) $cookie
set Headers(Accept) "application/xml"
set Headers(Content-Type) "application/xml"
set Headers(Content) $xml
set token [::http::geturl "http://12.222.20.17:8080/qcbin/rest/domains/test/projects/runtest/runs/385762" -method PUT -headers [array get Headers]]

Response

Solution

To send an XML document in your request via PUT, assuming you've got the document serialized into a string obtainable with $theXML, you just do this:

# Type *might* need to be text/xml
http::geturl $theServiceURL -method PUT -type application/xml -query $theXML

Of course, you've got to make sure that you handle the token that it returns right, and so on. The http package is still pretty low-level. (For example, you'll probably have to use http::config to set what MIME types you get in the response, and you'll need to handle redirects and cookies for sessions yourself.)

Sending JSON instead? The type then becomes application/json. Easy!
