Hello,

I am trying to create a page by sending a PUT request with the REST API but I can not find what must be page datas format.

This is my code :

function CallAPI($method, $url, $data = false)
{
    $curl = curl_init();

    switch ($method)
    {
        case "POST":
            curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, 1);

            if ($data)
                curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
            break;
        case "PUT":
            curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_PUT, 1);
            break;
        default:
            if ($data)
                $url = sprintf("%s?%s", $url, http_build_query($data));
    }

    // Optional Authentication:
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_BASIC);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "username:password");

    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

    $result = curl_exec($curl);

    curl_close($curl);

    return $result;
}

$res2 = CallAPI("PUT", "http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/XWiki/pages/test", "Hello World");

This is not creating the page, I do not know where I can chose the page location and everything else like title, …

Thanks for your help.

I have updated the previous code to this :

function CallAPI($method, $url, $data = false)
{
    $curl = curl_init();

    switch ($method)
    {
        case "POST":
            curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, 1);

            if ($data)
                curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
            break;
        case "PUT":
			curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, Array("Content-Type: text/xml")); 
            curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_PUT, 1);
			if ($data)
				curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
            break;
        default:
            if ($data)
                $url = sprintf("%s?%s", $url, http_build_query($data));
    }

    // Optional Authentication:
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_BASIC);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "username:password");

    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

    $result = curl_exec($curl);

    curl_close($curl);

    return $result;
}

$xmlFile = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<page xmlns="http://www.xwiki.org">
	<title>Hello world</title>
	<syntax>xwiki/2.1</syntax>
	<content>TEST</content>
</page>';

$res2 = CallAPI("PUT", "http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/Main/pages/TEST", $xmlFile);
echo $res2;

But I now get the following error :

org.restlet.ext.jaxrs.internal.exceptions.ConvertRepresentationException: Could not convert the message body to a org.xwiki.rest.model.jaxb.Page at org.restlet.ext.jaxrs.internal.exceptions.ConvertRepresentationException.object(ConvertRepresentationException.java:49)

I do not understand where is the mistake.

I think that I have found the problem, I modified the PUT request with this line :

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "PUT");
