Deploy a .bpmn file

[jaksur]

Hi everybody,

i want to deploy a BPMN-file with the REST-API. But i always get a Bad Request (400) error…

Has anybody an idea what i'm doing wrong??? My code is below.


Thank your very much

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

import org.json.JSONArray;
import org.json.JSONException;
import org.json.JSONObject;
import org.restlet.data.ChallengeScheme;
import org.restlet.data.Disposition;
import org.restlet.data.Form;
import org.restlet.data.MediaType;
import org.restlet.representation.FileRepresentation;
import org.restlet.representation.Representation;
import org.restlet.resource.ClientResource;



public class REST {

   private static String REST_URI = "http://localhost:8080/activiti-rest/service";
   
   private static ClientResource getClientResource(String uri) {
      ClientResource resource = new ClientResource(uri);
      resource.setChallengeResponse(ChallengeScheme.HTTP_BASIC, "kermit", "kermit");
      return resource;
   }
   
   public static JSONArray postDeployments() throws JSONException, IOException {
      String deploymentURI = REST_URI + "/repository/deployments";
      File file  = new File("C:\\Users\\Test\\Desktop\\process.bpmn"); 
      FileRepresentation fr = new FileRepresentation(file, MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN);
       
      System.out.println("Size sent: " + fr.getSize());
        
        try{ 
          Representation response = getClientResource(deploymentURI).post(file, MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA); 
           JSONObject object = new JSONObject(response.getText());
         if (object != null) {
            JSONArray dataArray = (JSONArray) object.get("data");
            return dataArray;
         }
        } 
        catch(Exception e){ 
           System.out.println("Error:"); 
           e.printStackTrace(); 
        }    
      return null;
   }
   
}

the docs says:
400: "Indicates there was no content present in the request body or the content mime-type is not supported for deployment. The status-description contains additional information."
have a look into this test:
<code>org.activiti.rest.service.api.repository.DeploymentResourceTest</code>

what if you will post the fileRepresentation and change the MediaType to application/xml ?

Hi,

when i change the MediaType i get a
406:"Not Acceptable (406) - The resource identified by the request is only capable of generating response entities which have content characteristics not acceptable according to the accept headers sent in the request"

any idea?

I solved my problem. Here is the code:

<code>
public void createDeployment() throws Exception {
  String deploymentURI = REST_URI + "/repository/deployments";

 
            CloseableHttpClient client = HttpClients.createDefault();
     HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(deploymentURI);      
     httpPost.addHeader("Authorization", "Basic a2VybWl0Omtlcm1pdA==");
    
     File file  = new File("C:\\process.bpmn");

     MultipartEntityBuilder builder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
     builder.addBinaryBody("file", file, ContentType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM, file.getName());
    
     HttpEntity multipart = builder.build();
     httpPost.setEntity(multipart);
 
     CloseableHttpResponse response = client.execute(httpPost);
     client.close();
   }
</code>
