I am trying to make a POST request which has HTTPHeader Fields and a HTTP body to the youtube API.
Previously in version 2.0 of AFNetworking, I used to do it this way which worked:
NSDictionary *parameters = @{@"snippet": @{@"textOriginal":self.commentToPost.text,@"parentId":self.commentReplyingTo.commentId}};
NSString *url = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/comments?part=snippet&access_token=%@",[[LoginSingleton sharedInstance] getaccesstoken]];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:url]];
[request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
[request setValue:@"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
NSError *error;
NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:parameters
options:0
error:&error];
NSString *jsonString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:jsonData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
// And finally, add it to HTTP body and job done.
[request setHTTPBody:[jsonString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
manager.requestSerializer.timeoutInterval=[[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] valueForKey:@"timeoutInterval"] longValue];
manager.requestSerializer = [AFJSONRequestSerializer serializer];
AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation = [manager HTTPRequestOperationWithRequest:request progress:nil success:^(NSURLSessionTask *task, id responseObject) {
NSLog(@"Reply JSON: %@", responseObject);
}
} failure:^(NSURLSessionTask *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(@"Error: %@, %@, %@, %@, %@", error, operation.responseObject, operation.responseData, operation.responseString, operation.request);
}];
[operation start];
The migration docs for version 3.0 replaces AFHTTPRequestOperationManager with AFHTTPSessionManager
However I can't seem to find a HTTPRequestOperationWithRequest method for the AFHTTPSessionManager.
I tried using the constructingBodyWithBlock but it doesn't work maybe because I am not doing it correctly.
This is what I have so far which doesn't work:
NSDictionary *body = @{@"snippet": @{@"topLevelComment":@{@"snippet":@{@"textOriginal":self.commentToPost.text}},@"videoId":self.videoIdPostingOn}};
NSError *error;
NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:body
options:0
error:&error];
NSString *jsonString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:jsonData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [AFHTTPSessionManager manager];
AFJSONRequestSerializer *serializer = [AFJSONRequestSerializer serializer];
serializer.timeoutInterval= [[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] valueForKey:@"timeoutInterval"] longValue];
[serializer setValue:@"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
[serializer setValue:@"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Accept"];
[manager POST:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/commentThreads?part=snippet&access_token=%@",[[LoginSingleton sharedInstance] getaccesstoken]] parameters:nil constructingBodyWithBlock:^(id<AFMultipartFormData> _Nonnull formData) {
[formData appendPartWithHeaders:nil body:[jsonString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
} progress:nil success:^(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nonnull task, id _Nullable responseObject) {
NSLog(@"Reply JSON: %@", responseObject);
} failure:^(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nullable task, NSError * _Nonnull error) {
NSLog(@"Error: %@, %@, %@, %@, %@", error, operation.responseObject, operation.responseData, operation.responseString, operation.request);
}];
