SDN Delete Flow REST in Java

Avimanyu — Tue, 02 Jun 2015 08:06:12 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to delete a flow in the VAN controller using DELETE REST call, something like below:

curl -sk -H "X-Auth-Token:6b2fa61a754a4cb984cc943689e65276" -X DELETE -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -d '{"flow":{"priority":50000,"idle_timeout":200,"match":[{"eth_type":"ipv4"},{"ipv4_src":"10.0.0.1"},{"ipv4_dst":"10.0.0.2"},{"ip_proto":"tcp"},{"tcp_dst":"80"}],"actions":[{"output":2}]}}' https://127.0.0.1:8443/sdn/v2.0/of/datapaths/00:00:00:00:00:00:00:01/flows

Using curl command, this works fine. Is there a similar way in Java (library/package etc.), which can be used to do the same?

I have tried the common Http client libraries of Java but unable to implement the DELETE method with payload. Please help.

Hi Avimany,

There is a Java wrapper for libcurl. Since it's implemented on libcurl, anything that works with cURL also works with libcurl. For an example of using libcurl (in C, regrettably not in Java, but the principle should be the same) see here. Let me know whether this helps.

Best regards,
