Web interface
« on: June 17, 2009, 01:49:53 am »
I'm developing a plugin for Crestron to comunicate with the Jrivers web interface. Is there any protocol information, or any specific guidelines where it is explained how to implement the HHTP protocol?

See the DevZone link for help.

It would be good if you did it for version 14, not for 12.

A week or so ago, a new interface was added to Library Server -- "Added web service interface (REST based) to library server.  Use the URL [library server address]/MCWS/v1/doc or [library server address]/MCWS/v1/wsdl to see documentation. (still a work in progress)"

We have a board here for developers:

I didn't find these folders in MC12. What my problem is: If I write GET view?location=Media+Library\n\n , the web server doesn't respond, but the control functions work like GET view?location=Controls&action=play_pause\n\n.

You're referring to the old "Remote Server".

With Media Center 14, a newer REST interface is incorporated into Library Server.  I recommend you build on this.  Jim posted a few more details, like how to get the documentation from it.

As you need functions, let us know and we can incorporate them into the new interface of Media Center 14.

[Edit by JimH -- You must first start Library Server in MC.  If you are running Media Server, this will still be available even after you exit MC.  See our Wiki entry on Servers for more about this. ]

You visit the server in a web browser to see the documentation:
http://[library server address]/MCWS/v1/doc

If you're on the same computer as the server, you can probably use:
http://localhost:80/MCWS/v1/doc

It's possible that you had Media Server from MC13 running on the first PC.

That sounds like the wrong server, but make sure Library Server is started.

Im using the same address and port where I find MCWS/v1/doc. From Crestron where im trying to talk with MC14, there is no formating in what I send. So if i send <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> , this is whath the libary server recives. Like when I send to the web server, I cant youst write the weblink,  i have to write GET "command" \n\n

Probably too late to help you, but maybe try adding a HTTP/1.0 at the end of the line, ending with a carriage return:

"GET  /MCWS/v1/Playback/Pause?State=-1&Zone=-1&ZoneType=id HTTP/1.0"
