Hi all,
it seems that the new http client in basex 10.x behaves differently when evaluating the response.
If, for example, an API that usually delivers JSON then delivers an HTML page on a 404, I run into a parser problem.
[experr:HC0002] Conversion failed: Stopped at ., 1/1: [json:parse] (1:1): Unexpected JSON value: '<br />...'.
The error page is correctly delivered with content type "text/html".
How is it decided which parser to use?
I would have expected the content type of the response to be used.
Has anyone else observed this behaviour?
This is how I used the http module:
let $response := http:send-request(<http:request method='post' >http:body media-type='application/json'/</http:request>, fn:concat($host, $apiKey), $body)
return
(
(: do someting :)
)
The problem definitely does not occur with BaseX 9.x.
Many thanks and best regards
Andreas
