I am currently working with the blackberry dynamics SDK.
I am currently using the http request functionality for the SDK but every time I want to return a response from a http call its always undefined - I tried promisifying it to return a value but to no avail.
It originally used two callbacks - which would rightly return me undefined, but if I make it a promise should it not return me a value.
Code
function constructGDHttpPostRequest(reqObj) {
let PostRequest = window.plugins.GDHttpRequest.createRequest("POST", URI + reqObj.endPoint, 30, false);
PostRequest.addRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
PostRequest.addHttpBody(reqObj.body);
return SendRequest(PostRequest).then(function (httpRes) {
console.log(httpRes);
return httpRes;
})
}
function SendRequest(Request) {
return new Promise(function (resolve) {
resolve(Request.send(sendSuccess));
})
}
function sendSuccess(response) {
console.log("Received valid response from the send request");
let Response = window.plugins.GDHttpRequest.parseHttpResponse(response);
return JSON.parse(Response.responseText);
}
I have tried using some of the questions asked relating to something like this but it still returned undefined from the promise.
Cheers in advance.
As per @Nikos M. suggestion this is what ave done and now works as expected.
I needed to resolve the callback in order to return a value.
I would like to make the callback a little cleaner with some suggestions.
function constructGDHttpPostRequest(reqObj) {
let PostRequest = window.plugins.GDHttpRequest.createRequest("POST", URI + reqObj.endPoint, 30, false);
PostRequest.addRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
PostRequest.addHttpBody(reqObj.body);
return SendRequest(PostRequest).then(function (httpRes) {
console.log(httpRes);
return httpRes;
})
}
function SendRequest(Request) {
return new Promise(function (resolve) {
Request.send(function (response) {
resolve(JSON.parse(window.plugins.GDHttpRequest.parseHttpResponse(response).responseText));
});
})
}
