Hi, thanks for your reply, I'm actually sending a form to webscript to a webscript which I designed before inside alfresco:the form I used to work with some applications like postman, google advanced rest client, as shown like this:

url "/hopenshare/student/apologycourse.json"

the form I used to work with some applications like postman, google advanced rest client, as shown like this:

"studentName": "Testing form",

"studentCardNo": 103255,

"studentPhoneNo":0000000000,

"studentCollege": "Arts",

"email":"test@gmail.com",

"date": "10/20/2006 12:00",

"country": "Germany",

"reason": 321321

so the problem is that I'm trying now to do a form inside alfresco for this purpose if you getting me, I want to send the data to alfresco using aikau in this format, and I have placed in the previous post what my code looks like, so If you can tell me how to make the code after filling the form send in json format?

You mean you have developed an alfresco webscript api which has an JSON request format parameter,and you have already tested using postman,and now you want to customize share ?

If yes you can refer to https://github.com/Alfresco/Aikau/blob/master/tutorial/chapters/Tutorial7.md

and https://github.com/Alfresco/Aikau/blob/master/tutorial/chapters/Tutorial16.md

ok, I have two thing I want to read the form data by name and I have defined this service and I tried to send data that brought from the form as shown below, but only the alert worked:

define([ "dojo/_base/declare", "alfresco/core/Core", "dojo/_base/lang",

"alfresco/core/CoreXhr", "service/constants/Default" ], function(

declare, Core, lang, CoreXhr, AlfConstants) {

return declare([ Core, CoreXhr ], {

constructor : function tutorial_UserAndGroupService__constructor(args) {

lang.mixin(this, args);

this.alfSubscribe("STUDENT_SEND_DATA", lang.hitch(this,

this.sendData));

sendData : function student_send__data(payload) {

alert(payload.student-name);

this.serviceXhr({

url : "/hopenshare/student/apologycourse.json",

method : "POST",

data : {

"studentName" : "Testing form", //Sample data

"studentCardNo" : 103255, // Sample data

"studentPhoneNo" : 0000000000, // Sample data

"studentCollege" : "Arts", // Sample data

"email" : "test@gmail.com", // Sample data

"date" : "10/20/2006 12:00", // Sample data

"country" : "Germany", // Sample data

"reason" : 321321 // Sample data

successCallback : this.onSuccess,

callbackScope : this

});

onSuccess : function success() {

alert('message is sent successfully');

}

});

Re: Sending aikau form in json format

hdalang — Sun, 30 Oct 2016 03:31:31 GMT

Just let me describe my problems in few lines here:
1- I have created a form as shown in previous code, I want to send this form in json format to specific webscript, my problem now is how to do that?
2- What I have done until now is that I have created a new service and I have placed it in services at model.json place, and I did change the

okButtonPublishTopic : "STUDENT_SEND_DATA"

I'm not sure if it's right or wrong.

3- I have added alert at the beginning of services to see that the service is working or not and I saw it's working but I cannot read or send form data to required webscript, and I have placed the code for this service.

4- How to read form data in alfresco?

The data that the Aikau form will be sending is always in JSON. The "name" and "value" attributes of each field in the form will create a key/value pair for data in the JSON submission. If you want to use the CrudService then you can configure the okButtonPublishTopic to be "ALF_CRUD_CREATE" for an HTTP POST - however you will need to ensure that the payload published by the form also includes the "url" that you want to publish to. All of this is covered in the Aikau tutorial on GitHub which I suggest you work through if you haven't already.

It could be that the issue you're having is in how to actually read the data being POST in a custom WebScript ?

If this is the case then you need to make sure that your WebScript files are correct, in that you have for example "my-webscript.post.desc.xml" (for the descriptor), "my-webscript.post.js" (for the controller), "my-webscript.post.json.ftl" (for the template) and to make sure that your WebScript descriptor includes:

<format default="json">argument</format>

...to indicate that JSON is the default format. You can then access the JSON data via the "json" attribute in your WebScript controller.
