How to create and PUT a file on the Document endpoint ?

Hi,
I'm having some trouble about the POST /me/document
endpoint.
My use case is the following :
- I want to provision a database with a dump from another database
If my understanding of the OVH Api is right, I need to do the following steps :
- Create a dump from the database 1
- Call
POST /hosting/privateDatabase/MyService/database/DB1/dump
- This is working fine
- Call
- Download the dump
- Call
GET /hosting/privateDatabase/MyService/database/DB1/dump/xxxx
- Retrieve the
url
field from the response - Call
GET
on theurl
- This is working fine
- Call
- Create a document
- Call
POST /me/document
- Retrieve the
putUrl
field from the response - Call that
putUrl
with a file content - Here is my problem : How should I call this url ? With the ovh/ovh api wrapper ? Or with a simple Curl call ?
- How should I pass my file content to this call ?
- Call
- Import the document in the database 2 :
- Call
POST /hosting/privateDatabase/MyService/database/DB2/import
with the document ID created just before.
- Call
Maybe my workflow is wrong too and there is another / simpler way to provision a database with a dump from another database ?
Help ! ^^
Hello,
Sorry for the late answer.
This issue tracker is dedicated on problems with the php-ovh wrapper, please note that for every questions related to the API, you need to subscribe to the api-subscribe@ml.ovh.net
, then, post your question to api@ml.ovh.net
.
Regarding your question, a call to POST /me/document
just return a putUrl
as you said, and this URL is not related to the OVH API, so you don't need to use the php-ovh to call it. A simple cURL will work.
The content of the file should be sent directly in request body, with the correct header Content-Type
set.
Thanks
