Net.FHttp with space in GET command

[Acho 2]

Hello,

                I need your advise - I trying to uset Net.FHttp and the GET command to activate motion alarm on my wanscam camera, unfortunately, the command contains SPACE and I cant get it working - any idea pls ?

 

http://192.168.1.23/cgi-bin/hi3510/param.cgi?cmd=setmdattr&-enable=0&-name=1&usr=[YYY] & pwd = [XXX]

 

in web browser if I type this it works, but not in fibaro :

http://192.168.1.23/cgi-bin/hi3510/param.cgi?cmd=setmdattr&-enable=0&-name=1&usr=[YYY]%20&%20pwd%20=%20[XXX]

 

 

Thanks a lot

use function urlencode() implemented in lua

 

or

function urlencode2(str)
if (str) then
str = string.gsub (str, "\n", "\r\n")
str = string.gsub (str, "([^%w ])",
function (c) return string.format ("%%%02X", string.byte(c)) end)
str = string.gsub (str, " ", "+")
end
fibaro:debug(str)
return str 
end
 

link="http://192.168.1.23/cgi-bin/"..urlencode2("param.cgi?cmd=setmdattr&-enable=0&-name=1&usr=[YYY] & pwd = [XXX]")

 

for test urlencode, the decode function is:

function urldecode(s)
  return string.gsub(s, '%%(%x%x)', 
    function (hex) return string.char(tonumber(hex,16)) end)
end

Did you remove the space from link around & before pwd?

Yes I tried as well - no success

 

The user and pass is surely corecty - coiped from the web browser the working link

Long shot: are you sure about that url? Google tells me api for this kind of camera is...

 

Please login or register to see this link.

 

The urls look quite similar, but not exactly the same.

 

Their example also includes the authentication at the start of the URL:

 

"

Please login or register to see this link.

"

 

None of the examples has spaces in them.

 

Maybe your browser cached the password? Or stores authentication in a cookie? You could try this. Start "New Incognito Window" in chrome, then paste your URL and see if that works.

 

I could be talking nonsense because I do not own this kind of device. But I joined other discussions regarding get/post/urlencode and the likes...
