add_json

add_json

Add new message to the database.

• URL: http://whispr.outi.me/api/add_json
• Method: Post
• Arguments: Message object
• Return value: The ID of the new message

---

WARNING: At the moment the API is implemented so that when you post a new message, the "pubTime" is not the unix timestamp of when the message should be published, but a delay for publishing the message in seconds. So if you wanted to publish the message immediately, it would be "0".

Examples

##C#

// Create a new message object that will be sent to the server
var newMessage = new SkeneMessage() {
    Latitude = 60.0,
    Longitude = 20.0,
    Text = "Hello, Skene!",
    PublishTime = 1404066977 // 29.06.2014 @ 18:36 UTC
};
var httpClient = new HttpClient();
// Create the request URL
var uri = new Uri("http://whispr.outi.me/api/add_json");
// Create a JSON string from the new SkeneMessage object
var json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(newMessage);
// Create HTTP content header with JSON string as it's data
var content = new StringContent(json);
// Set the content type to JSON
content.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/json");
// Send the request and get a response
var response = await httpClient.PostAsync(uri, content);
// Read the received response, which should contain new message ID
var result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
