概念验证 RESTful Python 服务器（使用 web.py）+ 用 cURL 测试

Question

我正在用 web.py 写一个概念验证的 RESTful 服务器。

这是我的脚本：

#!/usr/bin/env python
import web
import json


def notfound():
    #return web.notfound("Sorry, the page you were looking for was not found.")
    return json.dumps({'ok':0, 'errcode': 404})

def internalerror():
    #return web.internalerror("Bad, bad server. No donut for you.")
    return json.dumps({'ok':0, 'errcode': 500})


urls = (
    '/(.*)', 'handleRequest',
)


app = web.application(urls, globals())
app.notfound = notfound
app.internalerror = internalerror


class handleRequest:
    def GET(self, method_id):
        if not method_id: 
            return web.notfound()
        else:
            return json.dumps({'ok': method_id})

    def POST(self):
        i = web.input()
        data = web.data() # you can get data use this method
        print data
        pass

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run()

我可以正常发送 GET 请求，但当我尝试发送 POST 请求时，就出现了内部错误。目前，我不确定这个错误是因为 cURL 没有正确发送 POST 请求（这种可能性不大），还是因为我的服务器实现得不对（这种可能性更大）。

这是我用来发送 POST 请求的命令：

curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" -X POST -d "value":"30","type":"Tip 3","targetModule":"Target 3","active":true http://localhost:8080/xx/xxx/xxxx

这是服务器的响应：

me@localhost:~curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" -X POST -d "value":"30","type":"Tip 3","targetModule":"Target 3","active":true http://localhost:8080/xx/xxx/xxxx
HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error
Content-Length: 1382
Content-Type: text/plain

    return self.app(environ, xstart_response)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/web.py-0.36-py2.6.egg/web/httpserver.py", line 238, in __call__
    return self.app(environ, start_response)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/web.py-0.36-py2.6.egg/web/application.py", line 277, in wsgi
    result = self.handle_with_processors()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/web.py-0.36-py2.6.egg/web/application.py", line 247, in handle_with_processors
    return process(self.processors)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/web.py-0.36-py2.6.egg/web/application.py", line 244, in process
    raise self.internalerror()
TypeError: exceptions must be old-style classes or derived from BaseException, not str

这个错误的原因是什么？我该如何修复它呢？

这里有几个问题。

1) POST takes 2 arguments (like GET), self and the resource (method_id is fine)
2) When you're making a POST request you're setting "Content-Type" and not "Accept"
3) Your JSON isn't in quotes as a string

如果你把你的POST改成(self, method_id)，下面的代码应该可以正常工作：

curl -i -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"value":"30","type":"Tip 3","targetModule":"Target 3","active":true}' http://127.0.0.1:8080

你还应该把这段代码放在一个try/except块里，这样可以捕捉到错误，并对这些错误做一些有用的处理：

def POST(self,method_id):
    try:
        i = web.input()
        data = web.data() # you can get data use this method
        return
    except Error(e):
        print e
