How can I send HTTP/ Rest post request via Groovy script?
How can I send HTTP/ Rest post request via Groovy script? Can someone please provide me the sample code?
Forum Discussion
as this is an old post, is this still the case or is there now a means of doing this without using 3rd party libraries?
You want to put your use case? when there is readily available steps available, why do you need to use groovy to do this?
I'm using ServiceV and creating virts (then using VirtServer)
Suppose we have a service (api or soap) that takes a request then in formulating the response invokes another service for data to include within its response
in creating a virt to simulate that behavior we can create some datasets to mimic the secondary request response data which we would then have to maintain to ensure that data's relevance as the actual response data varies massively
or we could send an actual request to that secondary service then use the response data in our virts response thereby removing the dependency on that data maintenance
being able to send requests onto other services from virts would be a useful feature in my opinion, as there doesn't seem to be a direct way of doing this the next logical step would be to do this via groovy
