    text
    copied!<p>I am trying to replicate the example of the parse.com rest API below:</p> <pre><code>curl -X GET \ -H "X-Parse-Application-Id: APP_ID" \ -H "X-Parse-REST-API-Key: API_KEY" \ -G \ --data-urlencode 'where={"playerName":"John"}' \ https://api.parse.com/1/classes/GameScore </code></pre> <p>So, based on an example found on Stackoverflow, I implemented the function:</p> <pre><code>var https = require("https"); exports.getJSON = function(options, onResult){ var prot = options.port == 443 ? https : http; var req = prot.request(options, function(res){ var output = ''; res.setEncoding('utf8'); res.on('data', function (chunk) { output += chunk; }); res.on('end', function() { var obj = JSON.parse(output); onResult(res.statusCode, obj); }); }); req.on('error', function(err) { }); req.end(); }; </code></pre> <p>which I call like that :</p> <pre><code>var options = { host: 'api.parse.com', port: 443, path: '/1/classes/GameScore', method: 'GET', headers: { 'X-Parse-Application-Id': 'APP_ID', 'X-Parse-REST-API-Key': 'APP_KEY' } }; rest.getJSON(options, function(statusCode, result) { // I could work with the result html/json here. I could also just return it //console.log("onResult: (" + statusCode + ")" + JSON.stringify(result)); res.statusCode = statusCode; res.send(result); }); </code></pre> <p>My question is, how do I send the "--data-urlencode 'where={"playerName":"Sean Plott","cheatMode":false}' bit? I tried appending it to the path by setting the path in the options like that: '/1/classes/GameScore?playerName=John, but that didn't work, I received all the GameScore, not the ones from John</p>
