HADotNet stopped working after 0.118 update about hadotnet

[SamKr]

Found this in the dev blog: api changes

[SamKr]

Actually I don't think the api changes are relevant. When I use curl to fetch the json, using the same uri and bearer, it works and I get a json string. When I deserialize that, using the classes in your project, it works.

When I extend your library to include the restsharp error message, it gives this:

Error: Found invalid data while decoding.

At a loss why it's saying that though. Any idea?

[SamKr]

Ended up extending your library to use a curl fallback in case restsharp fails, which works fine for now.

I'm experiencing the same problem.

I'm experiencing this as described above. @SamKr can you share your fork that works?

[SamKr]

Sure @PockyBum522, will do tomorrow.

[SamKr]

Here you go @PockyBum522 : HADotNet fork.

Please read the readme for instructions. Let me know if it doesn't work for you.

[PockyBum522]

Thank you very much! I'll have a chance to test today.

@SamKr What platform/OS are you running on? curl isn't a Windows thing so I'm assuming you're on something else?

RestSharp may have issues on other platforms and that could be the cause. I can try bumping up RestSharp's dependency version to see if that resolves it.

[SamKr]

I'm using Windows, curl is available for windows: https://curl.se/windows/

Well sure, but not out of the box and not (easily?) as a NuGet dependency... so CliWrap fails if you didn't go out of your way to install curl manually. 😉

In any case, this looks like a bug with 0.118.x, I'll take a look and see if I can find out what changed.

Worst case, I can enhance that error message - response codes of 0 indicate a network issue of some kind, for which there's an error message that should be printed out in those cases.

Curl is a stand alone exe, so as long as I provide it along with the project's executable it's fine. And it's a backup method which is working fine for now.

I tried bumping restsharp and looking what's happening, but didn't get much result. Hopefully you'll do better :)

Why use Curl when you can use HttpClient? I don't understand. The REST API still works without any issues with HttpClient.

Ahh, nvm, probably because there is an issue in RestSharp.. Which is able to use a fallback.

[Trozmagon]

The Curl solution doesn't work when performing Posts, any updates on a RestSharp solution?

[Trozmagon]

Can confirm a basic HttpClient is working just fine:

var client = new HttpClient { BaseAddress = new Uri(""), Timeout = new TimeSpan(0, 0, 0, 0, -1) };
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", "***");

var request = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Post, "/api/services/media_player/volume_up");
request.Content = new StringContent("{"entity_id":"media_player.living_room_speaker"}", Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
request.Content.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/json");

await client.SendAsync(request).ContinueWith(r => {
Console.WriteLine("Response: {0}", r.Result);
});

Version 1.4.0 has just been pushed out to NuGet that addresses this. Closing this issue.
