sending POST request to azure ML Web service using poster - r

I have successfully deployed a web service using Azure ML and am able to get output both on Azure ML as well as a sample R client application.
I would like to however get response using the firefox poster.
I have followed the instructions from the Azure page on deploying the web service and tried using the same request headers and parameters as follows

How can I form a correct URL which works?

The "Content to Send" section is incorrect, you have specified URL-encoded, while you need to put application/json.

getting error when trying post tweet using httr and twitter PIN-based authorization

I am trying to post a new tweet from R using httr. But I am getting the following error:
{"errors":[{"code":32,"message":"Could not authenticate you."}]}
I am using the following code to authorize my app using PIN-based authorization
app <- oauth_app(
app = "",
key = "CONSUMER_KEY",
secret = "CONSUMER_SECRET"
)
create_oauth_signature <- function(url, method, oauth_app, token = NULL, token_secret = NULL, private_key = NULL, ...){
httr::oauth_header(
httr::oauth_signature(
url,
method,
app = oauth_app,
token,
token_secret,
private_key,
other_params = list(...)
)
)
}
get_authorization_url <- function(app, callback, permission = NULL){
response <- POST(
url = "https://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token",
create_oauth_signature("https://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token", "POST", app, oauth_callback = callback)
)
stop_for_status(response)
params <- httr::content(
response,
type = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
)
authorization_url <- modify_url(
"https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authenticate",
query = list(
oauth_token = params$oauth_token
)
)
return(list(authorization_url, params$oauth_token))
}
get_user_oauth_token <- function(verfier_code, token){
response <- POST(
modify_url(
url = "https://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token",
query = list(
oauth_verifier = verfier_code,
oauth_token = token
)
)
)
return(response)
}
authUrl <- get_authorization_url(app, callback = "oob")
after this, I get authorization link from authUrl[[1]] and visit the link from my browser. Authorize the app and copy the code. Then use the get_user_oauth_token() to get the token and secret as follows:
token <- get_user_oauth_token("THE_CODE_FROM_TWITTER", authURL[[2]])
token <- content(token, type = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
Now I want to use the user's oauth_token and secret to post a tweet. I am following this documentation.
response <- POST(
url = modify_url(
url = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json",
query = list(status = "Hello")
),
create_oauth_signature("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json", "POST", app, token = token$oauth_token, token_secret = token$oauth_token_secret),
content_type("application/json")
)
But I am getting the following error:
$`{"errors":[{"code":32,"message":"Could not authenticate you."}]}`
I am sure that the credentials are valid. Because If I use the same credentials with rtweet::post_tweet() it works just fine.
It would be so helpful if anybody could just point out what I am doing wrong.
Thanks in advance.

Sending emails in R without outlook app in the system

I'm able to send emails using the following code.
OutlookForSend = RDCOMClient::COMCreate("Outlook.Application")
emailToSend = OutlookForSend$CreateItem(0)
emailToSend[["subject"]] = "Subject"
emailToSend[["HTMLBody"]] = bodyToSend
emailToSend[["To"]] = "Email"
emailToSend$Send()
However, I don't have outlook installed, in the server machine but still need to send emails.
I'm able to achieve the same using the package mailer in Python , what is the best way to achieve the same in R.
Thanks
Any SMTP client implemented in R will do the job.
Check out this one: Rmailer
From their example:
library(Rmailer)
message <- c(
"Hey,",
"",
"I have a nice pic for you!",
"",
"Best",
"C."
)
settings <- list(
server = "smtp.example.org",
username = "user",
password = "password"
)
## send message:
sendmail(
from = "sender#example.org",
to = "receiver#example.org",
subject = "Good news!",
msg = message,
smtpsettings = settings,
attachment = "nice_pic.jpg"
)
Solved the problem, using mailR package and it works well.
library(mailR)
send.mail(from = "email#company.com",
to = "email#company.com",
subject = subjectToSend ,
body = bodyToSend,
html = TRUE,
smtp = list(host.name = "smtp.company.com", port = 25),
send = TRUE)

Logging each request to a separate json file with RestRserve

How would one set up logging each request to a different json file with RestRserve?
I tried using the lgr package (referred to in RestRserve's doc on logging) like so:
library(RestRserve)
library(lgr)
app = Application$new(content_type = "text/plain")
# RestRserve logger
app$logger = RestRserve::Logger$new(level = "trace", name = "mylogger",
printer=function(timestamp, level, logger_name, pid, message, ...)
{
lgr$log(level=tolower(level), msg=message, ...)
}
)
# JSON appender in lgr
tf <- tempfile(tmpdir="D:/temp", fileext=".log")
lgr$add_appender(AppenderJson$new(tf), name = "json")
# Endpoint
app$add_get("/sqrt", function(request, response) {
on.exit({
# Next log file
tf <- tempfile(tmpdir="D:/temp", fileext=".log")
lgr$appenders$json$set_file(tf)
})
app$logger$info(msg="", context=list(request_id = request$id, message="Process start"))
response$body = sqrt(x)
app$logger$info(msg="", context=list(request_id = request$id, message="Process end"))
})
# Submit request
request = Request$new(path = "/sqrt", method = "GET", parameters_query = list(x = "10"))
response = app$process_request(request)
But this splits up a request's log info across two files. I'm also quite sure it wouldn't work for simultaneous requests.
I believe you even don't need any special logger - just use writeLines. Also you can rely on req$id to name files since it is unique.
library(RestRserve)
req = Request$new()
res = Response$new()
fl = file.path(tempdir(), paste0(req$id, ".log"))
con = file(fl, open = "at")
writeLines("Process start", con)
res$set_body(sqrt(10))
writeLines("Process end", con)
close(con)
readLines(fl)
unlink(fl)

R interface to imgflip API (https://api.imgflip.com/). Always ends in with the failure "No texts supplied"

A simple post using the httr package always ends with an error?
# Post a random meme and print its url
res <- httr::POST(
url = "https://api.imgflip.com/caption_image",
body = list(
template_id = "61579",
username = "<my-username>",
password = "<my-password>",
text0 = "abc",
text1 = "def",
font = "impact",
max_font_size = "50"
),
httr::verbose(),
encode = "json"
)
httr::content(res, "text")
Im not sure how to do it in R, but I tried using postman and sending the request as JSON do not work you have to send it as a form-data:

How to: New order Binance API via RStudio

I am trying to create a new order via the Binance API using RStudio.
I found the Binance Official API Docs and figured out that I should use
POST /api/v3/order (HMAC SHA256).
The following script doesn't work out for me:
url='https://api.binance.com/api/v3/account'
GET(url,
add_headers("X-MBX-APIKEY"= *[my API key]*),
query=list("symbol"="ETHBTC",
"side"="BUY",
"type"="MARKET",
"quantity"=1,
recvWindow=5000,
"timestamp"=1499827319559,
"signature"=**???**),
verbose())
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong and how I can create an order via the Binance API using RSTUDIO and how I can create my signature?
library(httr)
timestamp <-
as.character(jsonlite::fromJSON(content(
GET("https://api.binance.com/api/v1/time"), "text"
))$serverTime + 999)
query <-
list(
"symbol" = "VENBTC",
"side" = "BUY",
"type" = "MARKET",
"quantity" = 1,
"recvWindow" = 5000,
"timestamp" = timestamp
)
signature <-
digest::hmac(
key = "*[my secret key]*",
object = paste(names(query), query, sep = "=", collapse = "&"),
algo = "sha256"
)
POST(
url,
add_headers("X-MBX-APIKEY" = "*[my API key]*"),
query = c(query, signature = signature),
verbose()
)
