}

invoke

Description

Invokes a custom method on the application’s ApplicationAdapter class. Note: HTTP to java RMI has limitations. Use String, Double (for numerics).

The invoke API is applicable only to custom-developed Red5Pro applications and is used for invoking custom methods on the ApplicationAdapter. These custom methods may carry a business logic that is specific to the given application.

REQUEST

• URI:

  http://{host}:5080/api/v1/applications/{appname}/invoke?accessToken={security-token}

• Method: POST
• Parameters:

Custom Method Invoke Object

{
  "method": "",
  "parameters": [ ]
}

RESPONSE

• Failure: HTTP CODE 400 or 404 or 500 or 401
  See failure status code table for more information on error cause.
• Data:

{
  "status": "error",
  "code": <http-status-code>,
  "message": <error-message>",
  "timestamp": <server-timestamp>
}

• Success: HTTP CODE 200 - OK
• Data: Custom JSON serialized object as per developer’s return type in the invoked method.

{
  "status": "success",
  "code": 200,
  "data": {CustomResponseObject},
  "timestamp": 1467060941836
}

Example 1

Below is a sample of the ApplicationAdapter of a custom Red5 Pro application with a custom method called sayHello. The objective of the method is to receive a clientname parameter and return a welcome message.

public class Application extends MultiThreadedApplicationAdapter
{
    private static Logger log = Red5LoggerFactory.getLogger(Application.class, "Application");
    public String sayHello(String name)
    {
        return "Welcome " + name;
    }
}

REQUEST

• URI:

  http://localhost:5080/api/v1/applications/api/invoke?accessToken=xyz123

• Method: POST
• Data: JSON

{
  "method": "sayHello",
  "parameters": [
    "Tony"
  ]
}

RESPONSE

• Success: HTTP CODE 200 - OK
• Data:

{
  "status": "success",
  "code": 200,
  "data": "Welcome Tony",
  "timestamp": 1467193076102
}

Example 2

In this example, we have a custom-made application with a method to accept two integers and print the sum. Below is a sample of the ApplicationAdapter of a custom Red5 Pro application with a custom method called getSum. The objective of the method is to receive two parameters and return the sum.

public class Application extends MultiThreadedApplicationAdapter
{
    private static Logger log = Red5LoggerFactory.getLogger(Application.class, "Application");

    public Integer add(Double  a, Double  b)
    {
        return a.intValue() + b.intValue();
    }
}

Note that the parameter type is declared as Double. This is because any number in JSON is a float (contains a decimal place). So if you pass 1 it is treated as 1.0. However, when returning a result, you may return any data type which can be serialized into JSON.

REQUEST

• URI:

  http://localhost:5080/api/v1/applications/api/invoke?accessToken=xyz123

• Method: POST
• Data: JSON

{
  "method": "getSum",
  "parameters": [
    1,
    2
  ]
}

RESPONSE

• Success: HTTP CODE 200 - OK
• Data:

{
  "status": "success",
  "code": 200,
  "data": 3,
  "timestamp": 1467193610836
}
