Send Json Structure To Server And Return File?

Jul 2, 2010

I'm having a very hard time wrapping my head around this problem (it might be the heat from the summer finally arriving).

Problem:

I want the user to press a button client side which performs javascript data preparing and at last send a JSON structure to (currently a asmx webservice on) the server. The JSON structure is several levels deep.

Server side I create a PDF file which I want to send back to the user.

Goal:
The user feeling is that she presses a button and expects a PDF to return to her - either in a new window or as a download (preferrable).

Tools:
The system consists of (client side) HTML, JavaScript and ExtJS and (server side) ASP.NET.

Normally I would use an ashx handler to return a file to the client, but can I send a JSON structure to the handler and still be able to parse it correctly server side?

I am searching for the pattern to use.

Do SQL Queries Towards An SQL 2005 Express Server And Format The Return Value To JSON?

Feb 19, 2010

I'm completely new to both VB.NET and JSON, and I'm trying to figure out how to do SQL queries towards an SQL 2005 Express server and format the return value to JSON. I got the queries working using this (perhaps very newbie-like) code;

Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Web.UI
Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls
Partial Public Class SQLConnect
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
'Defines SQL variables
Dim con As New SqlConnection
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand
Dim dr As SqlDataReader
Dim ReadData As String
Dim i As Integer
Sub Click(ByVal s As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
'Define SQL address, database, username and password
con.ConnectionString = "Data Source=localhostSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=tempdb;User ID=tesst;Password=test"
Try
'Initialize connection
con.Open()
'Specify SQL query
cmd = New SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM Member", con)
'Execute query, dump result array into variable
dr = cmd.ExecuteReader()
messageLabel.Text = "<br />Connection established<br />"
While (dr.Read)
i = 0
For i = 0 To dr.FieldCount - 1
'Dump query results into a variable
ReadData += dr.Item(i).ToString
Next
End While
'Print query results
messageLabel2.Text = ReadData
'Close connection
con.Close()
Catch ex As Exception
messageLabel.Text = "<br />Connection failed<br />"
End Try
End Sub
End Class

I have been looking at this, and I would love to see some code examples using this class or any other good method.

AJAX :: Getting JSON Object With Structure But No Content?

Jun 16, 2010

My json response contains json with structure (eg. "[[[],[]]]") but no actual content.

AJAX code:

[Code]....

It definitely recognizes structure (if I change the xml nodes, it reflects in the []'s) but just isn't inserting any content. I tried prefixing the web method with "<ScriptMethod(ResponseFormat:=ResponseFormat.Json)>" but it made no difference.

Return Tabular Structure From Web Service?

Jan 5, 2010

Whats the best way to return a tabular structure from an ASP.NET (2.0) web service?

It should be inter-operable with Java, Iphone App or any other platform.

EDIT: By inter-operable I mean the other technology/client should be able to consume it or deserialize it to their native types, instead of parsing response XML.

How To Get Ajax.Net PageMethod To Return JSON

Jan 12, 2010

I am using an AJAX.Net to call an ASP.Net PageMethod, which returns JSON serialized JSON data

{"d":"[{"Fromaddress":"testfrom1@test.com","Toaddress":"testto1@test.com"},{"Fromaddress":"testfrom2@test.com","Toaddress":"testto2@test.com"}]"}

The Response Header states the content type as

"Content-Type application/json; charset=utf-8"

However, the data is just available as a string, and does not seem to be available as JSON data from javascript. What do I need to do to work with the returned data as JSON from javascript?

MVC :: Join 2 SQL Tables Together And Return Them In A Json?

Aug 3, 2010

I am new to MVC and am trying to join 2 SQL tables together and return them in a Json. One table is OutreachProgram. The other table is UserInfo. I want to return the rows from the OutreachProgram table that match on CenterID with the UserInfo table.

The code that exists now will pull all rows from the OutreachProgram table. I can't figure out how to add the UserInfo table to the query to make it work.

JsonGrid <OutreachProgram> grid =
new
JsonGrid<OutreachProgram>(db.OutreachProgram,
new
OutreachProgramFilter());
public Array GetItems(IQueryable<OutreachProgram>
source)
{ return (from r
in source.AsEnumerable()

ID = r.OutreachProgramID, CenterID = r.CenterID, DateOutreachProvided = r.DateOutreachProvided.ToShortDateString(),

Return Data From An Asmx Into JSON?

Jun 15, 2010

I want to return an array of javascript objects from my asp.net asmx file. ie.

variable = [
{
*value1*: 'value1',[code]....

I seem have been having trouble reaching this. I'd put this into code but I've been hacking away at it so much it'd probably do more harm than good in having this answered. Basically I am using a web service to find names as people type the name. I'd use a regular text file or something but its a huge database that's always changing - and don't worry I've indexed the names so searching can be a little snappier - but I would really prefer to stick with this method and just figure out how to get usable JSON back to javascript. I've seen a few that sort of attempt to describe how one would approach this but I honestly think microsofts articles are damn near unreadable.

EDIT: I'm using the $.ajax() function from jQuery - I've had it working but it seems like I was doing it in bad practice not returning and using actual JSON. Previously I'd take a string back and insert it into html to use the variable it set - very roundabout.

Return A Partial View In JSON From A Controller In MVC?

Mar 16, 2011

I have a list of items(surveys) displayed on my home page. When I click the edit button for a particular item I have a modal pop up with the items details to edit. When the user clicks Save I submit the form via ajax. Depending on whether ModelState.IsValid == true I want to update the modal with validation information or close the modal and update the list of items with the new information.

This is how I am submitting the form:

[Code]...

My Questions

The only thing I can think to do is return JSON from my controller with a flag indicating the state of the ModelState.IsValid and the corresponding partial that I should show.

1) How would I do this?

2) Is there a better way?

Update

I found this: [URL]

but it seems more likely that I am going about the whole thing incorrectly.

WebMethod Return Values In JSON Format?

Jan 24, 2010

How to return values from Webmethod to the client in JSON format? There are two static int values that i want to return.Do I need to create new object with those 2 properties and return it?The GetStatus() method is called frequently and i don't like the idea of creating a special object each time just for json formatting...

[WebMethod]
public static int GetStatus()
{
int statusProcess,statusProcessTotal;
Status.Lock.EnterReadLock();
statusProcess=Status.Process; //Static field
statusProcessTotal=Status.ProcessTotal; //Static field
Status.Lock.ExitReadLock();
return ...
}
On client side I catch the return value in :
function OnSucceeded(result, userContext, methodName)
(PageMethods.GetStatus(OnSucceeded, OnFailed);)

MVC - JSON + HttpException - Return An Error Page

Jan 30, 2011

I'm trying to return an error page indicating that the user couldnt be found and therefore I throw a HttpException with status code 404, however for some reason it wont redirect to the error page? - Is there some sort of trick to handle error pages with JSON that I should be aware of? My current code:

public ActionResult Details(int id)
{
User userToGet = _session.Query(new GetUserById(id));
if(userToGet == null)
{
throw new HttpException(404, "User not found");
}
DetailsUserViewModel userToViewModel = AutoMapper.Mapper.Map<User, DetailsUserViewModel>(userToGet);
return Json(new
{
HTML = RenderPartialViewToString("Partials/Details", userToViewModel)
}, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

Update - Some more code:

// MyJs.js
function openBox(object) {
$("body").append("<div id='fadeBox'></div><div id='overlay' style='display:none;'></div>");
$("#fadeBox").html("<div style='position:absolute;top:0;right:0;margin-right:2px;margin-top:2px;'><a id='closeBox' href='#'>x</a></div>" + object["HTML"])
$("#fadeBox").fadeIn("slow");
$('#wrapper').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
$("#overlay").show();
jQuery.validator.unobtrusive.parse('#mybox') /* Enable client-side validation for partial view */
}
// List.cshtml
@model IEnumerable<MyDemon.ViewModels.ListUsersViewModel>
<table style="width:100%;">
<tr style="font-weight:bold;">
<td>UserId</td>
<td>UserName</td>
</tr>
@foreach (var user in Model)
{
<tr>
<td>@user.UserId</td>
<td>@user.UserName</td>
<td>@Ajax.ActionLink("Details", "details", "account", new { id = @user.UserId }, new AjaxOptions() { HttpMethod = "GET", OnSuccess = "openBox" })</td>

WCF / ASMX :: Return JSON Data From A 2.0 Web Service?

Sep 10, 2010

Just ramping up on JSON and JQuery and returning data to a ASP.NET web page from a web service using Ajax. The JQuery part is pretty straight-forward. However, when trying to return JSON formatted data instead of XML from a 2.0 web service, I'm stuck. The web service does have the System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService attribute, so I can hit it via JavaScript; however, the web service always...always...returns data in XML format, no matter if I explicitly say I want JSON as the datatype in my JQuery code. So I don't know if this is an issue with the web service or the JQuery code. I posted this here, but realize that the category could be incorrect depending on where the issue is. Is there no way to return JSON data from a 2.0 web service? It's a production web service, so I can't change the code unfortunately.

Return A Json Object In Webforms Programming?

In ASP.Net MVC action methods can return json objects simply by returning something like so:
