like everyone else, I''m trying to develop a RESTful API. and for
whatever reason, I like the idea of posting data using yaml. my script
to post the data looks like this:
parameters = { "token" => @token } #.merge(parameters)
response = @conn.post("/backups/new", parameters.to_yaml, {
"X-POST_DATA_FORMAT" => "yaml" } )
and the controller code that handles the request is basically this:
class MyController < ApplicationController
def new
token = params[:token]
render_text token
end
end
but token is not available in params. do I have to enable something to
get the yaml processing in the controller. I thought I understood that
this would be done automatically with the X-POST_DATA_FORMAT header. I
have also send the yaml content type to no avail.
what am I missing?
thanks!
the log in the server console is this:
