我正在尝试使用API​​调用TextGetRankedNamedEntities http://www.alchemyapi.com/api/entity/textc.html#rtext

以下是我的相关代码:

NSString *data = @"Data I want analyzed";
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *appFile = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"result.txt"];
[data writeToFile:appFile atomically:YES encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:NULL];

//I have verified the data is in the file

NSString *queryString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://access.alchemyapi.com/calls/text/TextGetRankedNamedEntities?apikey=MY_API_KEY&showSourceText=1"];

NSMutableURLRequest *theRequest=[NSMutableURLRequest
                           requestWithURL:[
                               NSURL URLWithString: queryString]
                                       cachePolicy:NSURLRequestUseProtocolCachePolicy
                                   timeoutInterval:60.0];
    //Set request method to post
    [theRequest setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
    NSString *post = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"&text=%@", appFile];
    NSData *postData = [post dataUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
    [theRequest setHTTPBody:postData];

此请求的结果是:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<results>
    <status>OK</status>
    <usage>By accessing AlchemyAPI or using information generated by AlchemyAPI, you are agreeing to be bound by the AlchemyAPI Terms of Use: http://www.alchemyapi.com/company/terms.html</usage>
    <url></url>
    <language>english</language>
    <text>/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/6C00A4F8-4DEE-44F2-9DBF-7568CEF72054/Documents/result.txt</text>
    <entities>
    </entities>
</results>

似乎正在发送的数据是文件路径,而不是文件的实际内容。

编辑:已解决,留下关于在iOS中使用HTTTP请求的可能反馈和最佳做法的问题,因为我对两者都不熟悉。

答案 0 :(得分:0)

变化:

NSString *post = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"&text=%@", appFile];

要:

NSString *post = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"&text=%@", data];

在发布问题之前我没有想过尝试这个,因为我之前尝试过这样做,但此时我发送的请求是使用GET方法而不是POST方法。
