RESTAPI with ++api++ path returns wrong @id #1542

me-kell · 2022-11-23T13:02:08Z

The RESTAPI, when called on a backend with a ++api++ (like for instance in https://6.demo.plone.org/++api++/) returns a wrong @id (i.e. without the ++api++ path).

Is this the intended behaviour?

To reproduce it

On https://6-classic.demo.plone.org the behaviour is as expected

SITE_URL=https://6-classic.demo.plone.org
USER=manager:plonemanager
TYPE_TITLE="mytype"

TYPE_AT_ID=$( \
    curl \
    -s -X POST ${SITE_URL}/@controlpanels/dexterity-types \
    -H "Accept: application/json" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    --data-raw '{"title": '\""${TYPE_TITLE}"\"'}' \
    --user ${USER} \
    | jq -r '."@id"' \
)

echo "${TYPE_AT_ID}"

# -> https://6-classic.demo.plone.org/@controlpanels/dexterity-types/mytype

With the returned @id one could e.g. delete the created type:

curl \
    -i -X DELETE "${TYPE_AT_ID}" \
    -H "Accept: application/json" \
    --user ${USER}

But when calling the RESTAPI on a "backend" via the ++api++ path (e.g. https://6.demo.plone.org/++api++/). The returned @id points to a url without ++api++ in the path.

SITE_URL=https://6.demo.plone.org/++api++
USER=admin:admin
TYPE_TITLE="mytype"

TYPE_AT_ID=$( \
    curl \
    -s -X POST ${SITE_URL}/@controlpanels/dexterity-types \
    -H "Accept: application/json" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    --data-raw '{"title": '\""${TYPE_TITLE}"\"'}' \
    --user ${USER} \
    | jq -r '."@id"' \
)
echo "${TYPE_AT_ID}"

# -> https://6.demo.plone.org/@controlpanels/dexterity-types/mytype

The returned @id is at https://6.demo.plone.org which is not the same as the requesting url https://6.demo.plone.org/++api++ (note the missing ++api++ path).

Calls based on the returned wrong @id will fail, e.g. the following

# the following fails because wrong @id
curl \
    -i -X DELETE "${TYPE_AT_ID}" \
    -H "Accept: application/json" \
    --user ${USER}

<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Error</title>
</head>
<body>
<pre>Cannot DELETE /@controlpanels/dexterity-types/mytype</pre>
</body>
</html>

Here is for instance necessary to first get the type id:

TYPE_ID=$( \
    curl \
    -s -X GET ${SITE_URL}/@controlpanels/dexterity-types \
    -H "Accept: application/json" \
    --user ${USER} \
    | jq -r --arg type_at_id "${TYPE_AT_ID}" '.items[] | select(."@id"==$type_at_id) | .id' \
)

echo ${TYPE_ID}

curl \
    -i -X DELETE "${SITE_URL}/@controlpanels/dexterity-types/${TYPE_ID}" \
    -H "Accept: application/json" \
    --user ${USER}
