Use CURL to make a GET request with query parameters - ruby-on-rails

I am making the following curl request from the console to test one of my REST API
curl -X GET "http://localhost/api/v1/user/search.json?search_model[first_name]=abc&auth_token=xyzf"
But it is failing with the following error
curl: (3) [globbing] error: bad range specification after pos 58
I wrapped the endpoint with " because & is used to execute the precious command in console. What else am i missing? Why am i getting this error?

steve>curl --help | grep glob
-g, --globoff Disable URL sequences and ranges using {} and []
Try adding -g.

RestClient syntax for file uploads

Following the indications provided by this gem , testing in the Rails console the RestClient
RestClient.post "https://upload.twitter.com/1.1/media/upload.json?media_category=tweet_image", :myfile => File.new("/Users/main/Desktop/ss2022-11-03_11.39.11.png", 'rb')
one can assert that the file exists by changing its path. Once verified, the response returns
400 Bad Request. So the request is malformed. Alas, I do not grasp what the second element of the File.new represents
The version 1.1 API documentation provides a suggestion console test
twurl -X POST -H upload.twitter.com "/1.1/media/upload.json?media_category=TWEET_IMAGE&additional_owners=3805104374" -f adsapi-heirarchy.png -F media
the response is the same whether the additional_owners is included or not (logical, it is optional).
What is missing in this sequence?
Thr translation of the twurl syntax to curl syntax would be:
curl "https://upload.twitter.com/1.1/media/upload.json?media_category=tweet_image&additional_owners=3805104374" --data-urlencode #/Users/main/Desktop/adsapi-heirarchy.png --data-urlencode 'media'

How to use simple hello world example on opa server

I have defined a file with name - play.rego
package play
default hello = false
hello {
m := input.message
m == "world"
}
I also have file called -input.json
{ "message": "world"}
I now want to use the policy to evaluate on input data using opa server -
opa run --server
I also then registered the policy using below command -
curl -X PUT http://localhost:8181/v1/policies/play --data-binary #play.rego
and then I run below command for evaluating policy on the query -
curl -X POST http://localhost:8181/v1/policies/v1/data/play --data-binary '{"message": "world"}'
But the server always responds with nothing.
I need help fixing the problem?
The URL of the second request is wrong (should not contain v1/policies), and the v1 API requires you to wrap the input document inside an input attribute. Try:
curl -X POST http://localhost:8181/v1/data/play --data-binary '{"input":{"message": "world"}}'

How do I correctly use variables in the POST request in Jenkins Slave

Here is my POST request.
curl -v -k -H "Content-Type:application/json" -b /tmp/zen.cookies -X POST https://${WEB_URL}/zen-data/v2/serviceInstance -d
{"serviceInstanceNamespace":"${namespace}","serviceInstanceVersion":"1.3.5","createArguments":{"parameters":{"global.icp4Data":"true","global.pvc.pvProvisioning":"NamedStorageClass","global.filebeat.output.logstashEnabled":"false","global.filebeat.output.consoleEnabled":"true","metadata.storageClass":\\"${storageclass}\\","imagePullSecrets":"ownerServiceInstanceUsername":""},"transientFields":{}}
It gives me this error:
{"code":400,"message":"parsing body body from \"\" failed, because invalid character 's' looking for beginning of value"}* Could not resolve host: serviceInstanceDisplayName; Unknown error
12:24:32 * Closing connection 1
12:24:32 curl: (6) Could not resolve host: serviceInstanceDisplayName; Unknown error
12:24:33 * Could not resolve host: serviceInstanceNamespace; Unknown error
I think it looks like you missed one bracket, Try to add } in the end.
Regarding Parameter in json format use only "$storageclass". or something like this :
json="{\"name\": \"$name\", \"text\": \"$Text\"}"
To substitute a variable inside JSON in POST command, you need to do this:
"'"${variableName}"'"
A double quote inside a single quote which is inside a double quote.
So it looks like this:
curl -X POST www.example.com -d '{"country": "city","province":"'"${variableName}"'"}'

Using curl for lira API with a period in the fixVersion jql

I've tried various iterations of using either ", ' and ` to enclose a curl query to an instance of jira in order to get all issues for a particular fix Version.
curl -D- -u username:password -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"jql":"project = PROJ AND fixVersion=Version-1.2.3"}' "https://thejirainstall.com/jira/rest/api/2/search"
However, using this and a couple of other change on fixVersion such as:
fixVersion="Version-1.2.3"
or
fixVersion=\"Version-1.2.3\"
or
fixVersion=Version-1\u002e2\u002e3
Add and remove quotes at will.
The ones that don't fail outright return:
{"errorMessages":["Error in the JQL Query: '\\.' is an illegal JQL escape sequence. The valid escape sequences are \\', \\\", \\t, \\n, \\r, \\\\, '\\ ' and \\uXXXX. (line 1, character 38)"],"errors":{}}
How do I either escape periods . or add another set of quotes?
Ok, so it turns out that Jira doesn't permit version names in jql syntax. The version id must be used instead.
And, in order to get the version id you must parse the result from https://thejirainstall.com/jira/rest/api/2/project/ON/versions?
This now means that I have to use a JSON parser anyway. So, now I'm using jq via homebrew install jq
My current solution is to write a bash script as below:
JIRA_FIXVERSION
fixVersionQuery='https://thejirainstall.com/jira/rest/api/2/project/ON/versions?';
myJSONResponse=`curl -u username:password -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" --insecure --silent $fixVersionQuery |jq '.[] | {id,name} | select(.name=="Version-1.2.3" | .["id"]'`;
echo $myJSONResponse;

Jenkins - Posting results to a external monitoring job is adding garbage to the build job log

I have a external monitor job that I'm pushing the result of another job to it with curl and base on this link :
Monitoring external jobs
After I create the job I just need to run a curl command with the body encoded in HEX to the specified url and then a build will be created and the output will be added to it but what I get instead is part of my output in clear text and the rest in weird characters like so :

This is how I'm doing it :
export output=`cat msg.out|xxd -c 256 -ps`
curl -k -X POST -d "<run><log encoding=\"hexBinary\">$output</log><result>0</result> <duration>2000</duration></run>" https://$jenkinsuser:$jenkinspass#127.0.0.1/jenkins/job/akamai_purge_results/postBuildResult -H'.crumb:c775f3aa15464563456346e'
If I cat that file is all fine and even if I edit it with vi I can't see any problem with it.
Do you guys have any idea how to fix this ?
Could it be a problem with the hex encoding ? ( I tried hex/enc/dec pages with the result of xxd and they look fine)
Thanks.
I had the same issue, and stumbled across this: http://blog.markfeeney.com/2010/01/hexbinary-encoding.html
From that page, you can get the encoding you need via this command:
echo "Hello world" | hexdump -v -e '1/1 "%02x"'
48656c6c6f20776f726c640a
An excerpt from the explanation:
So what the hell is that? -v means don't suppress any duplicate data
in the output, and -e is the format string. hexdump's very particular
about the formatting of the -e argument; so careful with the quotes.
The 1/1 means for every 1 byte encountered in the input, apply the
following formatting pattern 1 time. Despite this sounding like the
default behaviour in the man page, the 1/1 is not optional. /1 also
works, but the 1/1 is very very slightly more readable, IMO. The
"%02x" is just a standard-issue printf-style format code.
So in your case, you would do this (removing 'export' in favor of inline variable)
OUTPUT=`cat msg.out | hexdump -v -e '1/1 "%02x"'` curl -k -X POST -d "<run><log encoding=\"hexBinary\">$OUTPUT</log><result>0</result> <duration>2000</duration></run>" https://$jenkinsuser:$jenkinspass#127.0.0.1/jenkins/job/akamai_purge_results/postBuildResult -H'.crumb:c775f3aa15464563456346e'
