How to execute web requests from behavior delegate without additional input from user?

My goal is to make a setup for my widget with some fancy ProgressBar animation. As I discovered it is impossible to start app in ProgressBar view i have to create transitional view and delegate(SetupEntry and SetupEntryDelegate). Delegate checks if bluetooth is connected and finally push ProgressBarView. Then I make a couple chained web requests. As this setup should be automated I need it to run without additional clicks so I do it from constructor, but probably it is not the right way, because I am getting -300 errors(Request timed out before a response was received ) and call stack does not seem right. What are common patterns in solving similar automated setup and download problems?

you set:

var options = {
            :responseType => Communications.HTTP_RESPONSE_CONTENT_TYPE_JSON,
            :headers => {
                "Content-Type" => Communications.REQUEST_CONTENT_TYPE_URL_ENCODED
            }
        };

so url…

of course

var _url1 = Lang.format(""vilniaus"]);">kauno-autai.herokuapp.com/.../$1$",["vilniaus"]);

gives you

it means your code is bad :(

I can't see RequestDelegate class...

it has only constructor, as this view does not handle any input only downloads data. Also even if my code is bad why it runs on actual device, that is strangest thing to me.

can you put all code to git?

how external object returns data to :OnReceive1?

why in

OnReceive1(code as String, data as Dictionary or Null)

code is string?

but if should be string you can't check

if(code == 200)

current edition: github repository

edit: about that code and string. Yeah that's strange quirk with both string and number behavior to my eye is identical.

Are you using the same parameters and options in the sample app as you use in your app?

0 adas over 3 years ago in reply to jim_m_58

yes sir copy pasted from WebRequest sample

edit: there is one difference i pass callback method to the parameter

0 jim_m_58 over 3 years ago in reply to adas

You are only doing 1 quest at a time, correct? To make sure, put a println at every makeWebRequest and in every callback for that.

Yes one by one in chain. After adding bunch of println here is the output:

Making first request
Web request (kauno-autai.herokuapp.com/.../Mituvos g.) initiating
-300
OnReceive1 is called
Making second request
Web request (kauno-autai.herokuapp.com/.../Vilniaus g.) initiating
OnReceive2 is called
