Hi, You can use the new version of Apache's HTTP library, as follows, hope it'll help you. public class RestTest { /** * Create and initialize the http client. * * @return an HttpClient object */ HttpClient getClient(host, port, username, password) { HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient(); httpClient.getParams().setAuthenticationPreemptive(true); httpClient.getState().setCredentials( new AuthScope(host, port, AuthScope.ANY_REALM), new UsernamePasswordCredentials(username, password) ); return httpClient; } public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { // Get request example HttpClient httpClient = getClient(yourHost, yourPort, yourUsername, yourPassword); GetMethod getMethod = new GetMethod(getURL); getMethod.addRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json"); getMethod.setDoAuthentication( true ); String getURL = "your get url"; try { int status = httpClient.executeMethod(getMethod); System.out.println(getMethod.getResponseBodyAsString()); } catch (Exception e) { //... } finally { // release any connection resources used by the method getMethod.releaseConnection(); } // Put request example String putURL = "your put url"; PutMethod putMethod = new PutMethod(putURL); putMethod.addRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json"); putMethod.setDoAuthentication( true ); try { int status = httpClient.executeMethod(putMethod); System.out.println(putMethod.getResponseBodyAsString()); } catch (Exception e) { // ... } finally { // release any connection resources used by the method putMethod.releaseConnection(); } } } Best regards, Mohamed.

Hello,

I was trying to write a program which would upload new pages on my wiki. I was following these instructions http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XWikiRESTfulAPI , but unfortunately most of the examples use old version of Apache's HTTP library, so they are not very useful for me.

So I decided to try writing a program by following Apache's examples, but when I was testing connectivity I realised that I can't even get access to admin-only pages.

Here's my code:

import java.io.IOException; import org.apache.http.auth.AuthScope; import org.apache.http.auth.UsernamePasswordCredentials; import org.apache.http.client.CredentialsProvider; import org.apache.http.client.methods.CloseableHttpResponse; import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpGet; import org.apache.http.impl.client.BasicCredentialsProvider; import org.apache.http.impl.client.CloseableHttpClient; import org.apache.http.impl.client.HttpClients; import org.apache.http.util.EntityUtils;

public class RestTest {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { CredentialsProvider credsProvider = new BasicCredentialsProvider(); credsProvider.setCredentials( new AuthScope(AuthScope.ANY_HOST, AuthScope.ANY_PORT, AuthScope.ANY_REALM, AuthScope.ANY_SCHEME), new UsernamePasswordCredentials("Tobi", "mypass")); CloseableHttpClient httpclient = HttpClients.custom() .setDefaultCredentialsProvider(credsProvider) .build(); try { HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet("http://xwiki.aircr.ru/xwiki/bin/edit/Main/WebHome");

System.out.println("Executing request " + httpget.getRequestLine()); CloseableHttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpget); try {

System.out.println("----------------------------------------"); System.out.println(response.getStatusLine()); EntityUtils.consume(response.getEntity()); } finally { response.close(); } } finally { httpclient.close(); } }

}

It gives me: Executing request GET http://xwiki.aircr.ru/xwiki/bin/edit/Main/WebHome HTTP/1.1 <http://xwiki.aircr.ru/xwiki/bin/edit/Main/WebHomeHTTP/1.1> ---------------------------------------- HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized

I would really appreciate any help! Also, it would be great if you show me more examples of using PUT method for xWiki RESTful!
