TSslHttpRest.RestParams.GetParameters - JSON value "true" vs true

[milan 0]

The OverbyteIcsHttpRestTst.dproj sample has a grid titled REST Parameters where i enter Name - "verify" and Value - "true".

I need JSON {"verify":true} but method RestParams.GetParameters return {"verify":"true"}. 

Parameter aRaw make nothing.

Sorry, currently TRestParams does not create boolean or numeric parameters, you'll need to construct the Json manually or with SuperObject.

Thank you and at the same time please:

I construct the Json manually, but where to assign in?

The RestRequest method includes RawParams string which is where pverides any TRestParams.

But if it does not take place function GetParams, 

will stay after THttpCli.Create  FContentPost := 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'; 
because it will not be replaced: 

 

OverbyteIcsSslHttpRest.pas:

...

line 1818

     { V8.64 set Json content type if empty }
        if (Params <> '') and (FContentPost = '') then begin
           if (Params[1] = '{') or (Params[1] = '[') then
                FContentPost := 'application/json; charset=UTF-8';  { V8.61 added UTF8 }
 

excuse my English

If you use RawParams you also need to set ContentPost to say what you are posting. 

 

BTW, all the REST APIs I've used so far have accepted a Json value of 'True', but I will look at improving TRestParams, not immediately though.

Thank you very much.

 

In the meantime I will set HttpRest.ContentTypePost : = ''; (instead 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' set from Create) 

and code in OverbyteIcsSslHttpRest.pas:

 

line 1818

     { V8.64 set Json content type if empty }
        if (Params <> '') and (FContentPost = '') then begin
           if (Params[1] = '{') or (Params[1] = '[') then
                FContentPost := 'application/json; charset=UTF-8';  { V8.61 added UTF8 }

 

will come into effect.
