Is it possible to show me a sample http session with range requests.
I mean what would be the request and response headers?
The following exchange is between Chrome and a static web server, retrieving an MP4 video.
Initial request - for the video. Note the Accept-Ranges response header to indicate the server has range header support:
GET /BigBuckBunny_320x180.mp4
Cache-Control: max-age=0
Connection: keep-alive
Accept-Language: en-GB,en-US,en
Host: localhost:8080

Range header in previous response detected - subsequent request with open-ended range to confirm support. Response returns a 206 status and Content-Range header to indicate the bytes present in the response body:

I am trying to get info from a website using AJAX. The Website showing different size for perfume and basically, the price would change when selecting different size.
I checked chrome Network Tab and found it's a XHR request, but looking at the request head I have no idea how to generate the same headers and data with the Requests package.
This is how my code currently looks like:
import requests
url = "https://www.beautyfresh.com/uc_aac"
session = requests.Session()
data = {"attributes[Size]":"100ml"} # I want to get the price for 100ml
headers = {"Referer": "https://www.beautyfresh.com/product/fragrance/men/perfume-fragrance/women/perfume-men/fragrance/perfume/jo-malone-orange-blossom-cologne",}
r = session.post(url,headers=headers,data=data)
print(r.text)
The General information under Chrome Network tab is
Request URL: https://www.beautyfresh.com/uc_aac
Request Method: POST
Status Code: 200 OK
Remote Address: 103.255.250.100:443

I don't actually know how to construct my request so it can be successfully posted to the server the get the proper response. It should return the price for "100ml", but currently my code get nothing.
Thank you so much for any help!
You are missing some information in your data. To receive a response, try adding "aac_nid": "2905" to your data when sending the post request:
import requests
headers = {
"Referer": "https://www.beautyfresh.com/product/fragrance/men/perfume-fragrance/women/perfume-men/fragrance/perfume/jo-malone-orange-blossom-cologne",
}
data = {"attributes[Size]": "30ml", "aac_nid": "2905"}
response = requests.post(
"https://www.beautyfresh.com/uc_aac", headers=headers, data=data
)
>>> print(response.content)
b'{"nid":"2905","model":"690251006564","replacements":{"sellprice":"<div class=\\"product-info sellprice\\"><div class=\'retail_price\'>City Price: <div class=\'product-info retail_price\'><span class=\'uc-price\'>S$110.00<\\/span><\\/div><\\/div>\\r\\n <div class=\'promoprice\'>Our Price: <div class=\'product-info sellprice1\'><span class=\'uc-price\'>S$89.00<\\/span><\\/div><\\/div><\\/div>","model":"<div class=\\"model\\"><span class=\\"label\\">Product Code: <\\/span>690251006564<\\/div>"},"form":"<form action=\\"\\/uc_aac\\" accept-charset=\\"UTF-8\\" method=\\"post\\" id=\\"uc-product-add-to-cart-form\\" class=\\" uc-aac-cart\\">\\n<div><div class=\'attributes\'><div class=\\"form-item\\" id=\\"edit-attributes-Size-wrapper\\">\\n <label for=\\"edit-attributes-Size\\">Size <span class=\\"form-required\\" title=\\"This field is required.\\">*<\\/span><\\/label>\\n <select name=\\"attributes[Size]\\" class=\\"form-select required chosen-widget\\" data-name=\\"Size\\" id=\\"edit-attributes-Size\\" ><option value=\\"30ml\\" selected=\\"selected\\">30ml<\\/option><option value=\\"100ml\\">100ml<\\/option><\\/select>\\n<\\/div>\\n<\\/div><input type=\\"hidden\\" name=\\"nid\\" id=\\"edit-nid\\" value=\\"2905\\" \\/>\\n<div class=\\"form-item\\" id=\\"edit-qty-wrapper\\">\\n <label for=\\"edit-qty\\">Qty <\\/label>\\n <input type=\\"text\\" maxlength=\\"3\\" name=\\"qty\\" id=\\"edit-qty\\" size=\\"5\\" value=\\"1\\" class=\\"form-text textfield\\" \\/>\\n<\\/div>\\n<input type=\\"hidden\\" name=\\"form_build_id\\" id=\\"form-b7adf002178f04ed96377894057352a2\\" value=\\"form-b7adf002178f04ed96377894057352a2\\" \\/>\\n<input type=\\"hidden\\" name=\\"form_id\\" id=\\"edit-uc-product-add-to-cart-form\\" value=\\"uc_product_add_to_cart_form\\" \\/>\\n<input type=\\"hidden\\" name=\\"aac_nid\\" id=\\"edit-aac-nid\\" value=\\"2905\\" \\/>\\n<div class=\'leadtime_message\' style=\'margin-bottom:1em;\'><p>Delivers in 1-3 working days<\\/p><\\/div><input type=\\"submit\\" name=\\"op\\" id=\\"edit-submit-2905\\" value=\\"Add to Cart\\" class=\\"notranslate form-submit node-add-to-cart primary\\" \\/>\\n\\n<\\/div><\\/form>\\n"}'
To get the price, try searching for it with the help of the built-in re (regex) module:
import re
prices = re.findall(r"'uc-price\\'>S(\$\d.*?)<", str(response.content))
print("Original Price:", prices[0])
print("Our Price:", prices[1])
Output:
Original Price: $110.00
Our Price: $89.00
I'm trying return video partially, using 206 Partial Content, I transfer all the headers correctly, but the request passes only 4kb, but if I answer 200 OK, the video will work, what could be the problem?
(If I answer 200 OK, then I can't rewind the video)

The problem was in localhost, everything works on server, thanks :)
I want to make a POST to a webserver running a Rails application (I didn't develop the application, I just need to post to it) and I've been trying to use R with little success.
I've been doing this with httr and jsonlite:
install.packages("httr");
install.packages("jsonlite")
library(jsonlite)
library("httr");
url = "http://192.168.0.168:3000/api/styles";
b <- list(name="Lorem", description="Ipsum");
POST(url,body=b,encode='json');
Which nets me the result of actually being able to post but renders a warning from Rails:

All other attempts at using other encoding options or content-type headers have given me a warning of 422 Unprocessable Entity.
I have however been successful at doing this in Python with this snippet:
import requests
url = "http://192.168.0.168:3000/api/styles"
payload = {'name': 'Lorem', 'description': 'Ipsum'}
r = requests.post(url, json=payload)
Can anyone shine a light on what am I doing wrong in the R request?

But when I go to my home page # profile->your network update, I am not able to see my posts.
I waited more than 30 mins.
I have the following get:

{
String text = "returntext";
text+="\r\n";
return text;
}

How do I change the connection header value to close ?
I think this maybe a restlet bug.
Whether the server closes the connection or not, depends on whether the client request asks for the connection to close or not.
Here is a sample Server code:
import org.restlet.data.Form;
import org.restlet.data.MediaType;
import org.restlet.data.Parameter;
import org.restlet.resource.Get;
import org.restlet.resource.ServerResource;
import org.restlet.util.Series;
public class TestRestlet extends ServerResource {
#Get
public String getImpl(){
return "Sample Response Text\r\n";
}
}
And here is what i got on linux commmand line (using only telnet):
[Please note that the last line in request-header in each request is followed by 2 newlines] [To avoid any confusion, some of the requests do not contain request-body.]

In the above examples, several types of HTTP connections are made.
The response to the 1st request:
GET /TestRestlet HTTP/1.1
Host: 172.16.101.34:6060
[Note: the line Host: 172.16.101.34:6060 is followed by 2 \r\n: \r\n\r\n]
is:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=C2E77F4D0437E525A0FC66498EF09E8B; Path=/hotelSoft

Sample Response Text
The connection is not closed yet, and we send another request:
GET /TestRestlet HTTP/1.1
Host: 172.16.101.34:6060
Connection: Keep-Alive
That gets the response:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=1873DE26443F5DF62379B895AEA0F004; Path=/hotelSoft

Accept-Ranges: bytes
Server: Restlet-Framework/2.0.15
Vary: Accept-Charset, Accept-Encoding, Accept-Language, Accept
Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8
Content-Length: 22
Still the connection is not closed.
However on the 3rd request:
GET /TestRestlet HTTP/1.1
Host: 172.16.101.34:6060
Connection: close
The connection is closed, because the request contains Connection: close header.
You can see the telnet exits after displaying a message: Connection closed by foreign host.
There are 2 more sample request-response in the above given examples:
1.An HTTP 1.0 request:
GET /TestRestlet HTTP/1.0
With response:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=2C879A91F2501DD9D3B39EF50C3F46CA; Path=/hotelSoft
Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2013 08:26:09 GMT
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Server: Restlet-Framework/2.0.15
Vary: Accept-Charset, Accept-Encoding, Accept-Language, Accept
Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8
Content-Length: 22
Connection: close
Sample Response Text
And the telnet exits after displaying: Connection closed by foreign host.
2.A request without HTTP version mentioned:
GET /TestRestlet
And response is: (Without headers)
Sample Response Text
And the telnet exits with a message: Connection closed by foreign host.
Conclusion:
Whatever is your client / client-program , make it send an HTTP-1.0 request , or a HTTP-1.1 request with Connection: close header.
In Java, you achieve this by:
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
import java.net.URL;
.
.
.
HttpURLConnection httpURLConnection = (HttpURLConnection) new URL("http://....").openConnection();
httpURLConnection.setRequestProperty("Connection","close");
// rest of the code here....
Also check if a statement like this:
httpURLConnection.disconnect();
can help you disconnect the connection.
