Re: Saving INBOUND JSON (sent from the Web App) to the IFS

Bradley,

I assume this would only be desirable if reading input from stdin?  After all, in other cases, you already have the JSON data in your program.

It'd be easy enough to add this into YAJL, though I'd add it as an optional parameter rather than create a new subprocedure.

What should happen if the file already exists?  Replace it or append to it?   The former would be better if you plan to process it later as a json document, but the latter would be better if this is just intended as a "log" (informational) type file and you don't plan to ever use it directly.

Nope, yajl_saveBuf saves generated JSON. Unless it's been updated to do
otherwise.

What I did to save json as create a new function based
on yajl_stdin_load_tree() called yajl_stdin_loadandsave_tree() that does
the same, but has the option (if a filename is passed in) to save the JSON
read from Standard Input to the IFS.

Pretty simple to do. Scott has a lot of good IFS examples already in the
source you can use.

Or, if you ask nice, he may add something like that to the current
version. :) I know I've needed it. And it may already be there!

We are working with Web Services on the iSeries and JSON code is sent
INBOUND, our Web Service program parses the JSON and we do some things
with it.

We would like to save the JSON that is coming in to the IFS(as it is
received). This is using the POST method.

Any ideas how to get it done using Scott’s YAJL ?



Thank you,



Gerry
