I have a nodejs app that is listening for incoming request. I make a call to that rest link using a Java program. It is trying to send data to the NodeJS app. It works if the string is one word. However If my string is long enough or contains special character it would fail with error.
What would be my best choice to use in order to send string that may contains special character and size of atleast 100 - 200 characters or even more ?
java.net.MalformedURLException: Illegal character in URL
at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.getURLFile(HttpClient.java:583)
at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getRequestURI(HttpURLConnection.java:2298)
at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.writeRequests(HttpURLConnection.java:513)
Java Function to send data to the Rest link
public void sendDataToNodeJSApp(String create="Creating service APP in org test@ca.capge.com / space Testing as test@ca.capge.com..."){
URL url;
try {
// get URL content
String a="http://xyz/data/"+create;
url = new URL(a);
URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
// open the stream and put it into BufferedReader
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
while ((inputLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(inputLine);
}
br.close();
System.out.println("Done");
}
}
NodeJS (Rest Api link listening for incoming data from the Java app)
app.get('/data/:STMT_TEXT', function (req, res) {
var STMT_TEXT = req.params.STMT_TEXT;
console.log(STMT_TEXT);
res.send("Done");
});
You need to URL encode the String. See http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/net/URLEncoder.html
