Karate | String Split for CLI output [duplicate] - karate

Question

I'm unsure about how I can split the response string from an already created feature to obtain the response header "Location" value.
What I've tried
1)
Feature: Create Tariff
Background:
* def result = call read('../../get-user-token.feature')
* def serviceId = call read('create-service.feature')
Scenario: Create Tariff
Given url 'https://app-dev.topbox.pro/tariff-svc/api/v1/tariffs'
And header Authorization = result.response.token_type + " " + result.response.access_token
And request
"""
{
serviceTypeId: '#(serviceId.responseHeaders['Location'].split('/')[1])',
owner: 1,
type: 0,
pencePerMile: '69.69',
minMileage: '1.00',
minCost: 5,
zoneFrom: '',
zoneTo: '',
fixedCost: 0
}
"""
When method POST
Then status 201
Which resulted in...
IntegrationTests.TestSetup.create-tariff: create-tariff.feature:10 -
net.minidev.json.parser.ParseException: Unexpected token L at position
46.
2)
Feature: Create Tariff
Background:
* def result = call read('../../get-user-token.feature')
* def serviceId = call read('create-service.feature').responseHeaders['Location'].split('/')[1]
Scenario: Create Tariff
Given url 'https://app-dev.topbox.pro/tariff-svc/api/v1/tariffs'
And header Authorization = result.response.token_type + " " + result.response.access_token
And request
"""
{
serviceTypeId: '#(serviceId)',
owner: 1,
type: 0,
pencePerMile: '69.69',
minMileage: '1.00',
minCost: 5,
zoneFrom: '',
zoneTo: '',
fixedCost: 0
}
"""
When method POST
Then status 201
Which resulted in...
failed features: IntegrationTests.TestSetup.create-tariff: -unknown-:5
- javascript evaluation failed: read('create-service.feature').responseHeaders['Location'].split('/')1,
TypeError: Cannot read property "Location" from undefined in at
line number 1
NOTE
The specified feature "create-service.feature" does indeed work when isolated and does produce the response header, as shown below

Answer 1

Use lastIndexOf instead of split:
* def location = responseHeaders['Location'][0]
* def serviceId = location.substring(location.lastIndexOf('/') + 1)

Answer 2

You need to use a Javascript function : https://github.com/intuit/karate#javascript-functions
* def greeter = function(name){ return 'hello ' + name }
* assert greeter('Bob') == 'hello Bob'
EDIT:
* def service = { key : "someinfo/myServiceId"}
* def func = function(service){return service.key.split('/')[1]}
* def serviceId = func(service)
* match serviceId == "myServiceId"

Answer 3

I think the first error is due to single quotes inside your expression, try escaping that
like,
And request
"""
{
serviceTypeId: '#(serviceId.responseHeaders.Location[0].split(\'/\')[1])',
owner: 1,
type: 0,
pencePerMile: '69.69',
minMileage: '1.00',
minCost: 5,
zoneFrom: '',
zoneTo: '',
fixedCost: 0
}
"""
Edit: Just now noted each value in responseHeader has a list type value so access it like Location[0]
And your second Approach should be something like this,
* def serviceId = call read('create-service.feature').responseHeaders.Location[0].split('/')[1]

Answer 4

I just face the same issue (.split is not a function), and in my case, I need to convert the data to string first, before using split function.
Here is the custom code from adrien answer:
* def service = { key : "someinfo/myServiceId"}
* def func = function(service){return service.key.toString().split('/')[1]}
