I am very new to Intel XDK and i try to make a very simple app like this in that video tutorial: Using Services Datafeed in App Designer.
But instead of the specific service from Rotten Tomatoes i want to integrate a database i have in Parse.com. For that i followed this video tutorial: "Integrating a New Service"
"[https]://software.intel.com/en-us/html5/videos/integrating-a-new-service",
and at the end the response was: "Unauthorized".
Then i found only this answer which comes from Intel's HTML5 Development Forums. I did not get anything either with this. The response was again: "Unauthorized".
And now i am confused and disappointed because:
- I can't find other resources to help my self
- I don't want to do it someone else instead of me, but
- Without a full example, how is supposed to make it to learn?
My code now is similar with this in video: "Integrating a New Service"
In apiconfig.json
{
"MyService": {
"name": "The external service",
"description": "A great API with an external service",
"dashboardUrl": "https://parse.com",
"auth": "key",
"signature": "apiSecret"
}
}
In MyService.js
(function (credentials) {
var exports = {};
exports.ServiceObject = function(params) {
var url = 'https://api.parse.com/1/classes/ServiceObject';
params['apiKey'] = credentials.apiKey;
url = url + '?' + $.param(params);
return $.ajax({url: url, type: 'GET'});
};
return exports;
})
And in MyService.json
{
"endpoints": [
{
"name": "classes",
"dashboardUrl": "https://parse.com/docs/rest",
"methods": [
{
"MethodName": "ServiceObject",
"Synopsis": "Show the entries",
"parameters": [
{
"Name": "objectId",
"Required": "N",
"Default": "",
"Type": "string",
"Description": "The object ID"
},
{
"Name": "text",
"Required": "N",
"Default": "",
"Type": "string",
"Description": "The text"
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
Can someone help me more? In whatever way he thinks best.
Thank you all
Edit:
After the following answer, my problem solved.
"MyService.js" file after the correction is:
(function (credentials) {
var exports = {};
exports.ServiceObject = function(params) {
var url = 'https://api.parse.com/1/classes/ServiceObject';
return $.ajax({
url : url,
headers : {
'X-Parse-Application-Id' : credentials.apiKey,
'X-Parse-REST-API-Key' : credentials.apiSecret
}
});
};
return exports;
})
@ user1736947: Your answer was concise and precise, exactly what i needed. Certainly in the future I will need a lot of help, but for now I can go on my self-education thanks to you. Thank you very much.
