CCS/CC3220S-LAUNCHXL: http and https client sample codes utilizing the latest simplelink SDK 1.60.00.04 http client library

Hi Benjamin,

Thanks for the caveats and another question is : can I use the "portable + wifi" example steps to create the TI-RTOS for the http client file you are sharing?

-Antolin-

Hi Ben,

Thanks for the pointer, and which libraries do we need to add?

regards,
Antolin

Anolin,

It relies on slnetsock_release, slnetifwifi, httpclient, and simplelink libraries. The TI-DRIVERs build should already be there. As is, you will want the display driver, but this can be adjusted to use whichever printing mechanism you prefer.

Best Regards,
Ben M

hi Ben,

I included the paths as best I can but I got the following errors at the end, might just be something simple I'm missing, thanks  in advance

Hi Ben,

I fixed the above errors by editing and adding back the main_tirtos.c file and referencing the mainThread() that is an extern called from platform.c ( commenting out irrelevant threads: console and temperature)

but after that fix, I'm getting the following errors at the bottom part, please see last part

hi I've posted my latest linker related errors after adding the libraries, please look at my latest errors posting at bottom

Hi Ben,

 thanks for the additional info above and how do I change the C files you provided to target and work as a basic https client? 

-Antolin-

Hi Antolin,

I'm not sure I understand the question. Please confirm that the example above is running correctly (i.e. GET action succeeds and the data is printed to the console).

Best Regards,
Ben M

Hi Ben,

How do I see the print out from the Display_printf() functions? 

I tried opening several of the CCS consoles but I see none of the output messages?

-Antolin-

Hi Antolin,

This should print to a serial terminal through the UART just like UART_PRINT.

Best Regards,
Ben M

Thanks Ben,
I got my Putty hooked up to COM4 where the Launchpad showed up and at 115kbaud 8 bits no parity, the basic http client is getting a response from httpbin.org

my next question is:

How do you to enable the https client connectivity? -- a basic one that uses the https:// but no certificates?

Hi Ben,

I have further question on the cert file, its appreciated if you can give advice

1) do the cert file need to save into specific folder?
2) if i need to file the cert to a folder, is it i just put the file name together with the path,
eg, i save the file in folder, serverA, i should save the file name as below?

httpClientSecParams.rootCa = "serverA/ca.der";

3) if i have assigned the file name of rootCa successfully, is the SlNetSock library would load the cert from file system directly?

4) beside the UniFlash, is it support to create the cert file using fs library?
i am using ccs7 in deubg mode with fs library, its able to open, read and wirte file during debugging. However, i am not able to review the created file using UniFlash. It seems the file is deleted once exit debug mode.

Thanks

Nick

Nicky

Also note that you should set the device time to the current date when using secure sockets (i.e. HTTPS client). The time will be needed for verifying the validity of the server certs.

Best Regards,
Ben M

Ben

thanks for the reply

Q4)
I tested the file system based on the network terminal trrtos version. When using UniFlash, i can only find the default files of network terminal project such as cert, .bin.

when i user sl_FsGetFileList(), i can see the new created files from the list.

Regards

Nicky

Hello Benjamin,

            I have tried this httpget code given by you and it is working fine . I also want to post the data from CC3220SF to server.

            I am setting http header -  "Content-type = "application/json" . However I am getting error - 400 - bad request.

            Kindly let me know what changes do I have to make in httpget.c  code to post the data and also information required from my side.

Regards,

Omkar

hi Ben,
A couple of questions:
the code changes you specified compile the modified http client into the https client without error
but
it is not connecting to https://httpbin.org

How do I use the default dummy-ca-cert.der file already in the cc3220s launchpad?
and
do I need to generate the ca.der file you refer to? how to do that and do you have a link to show how to put that into the cc3220s ?

thanks,
Antolin

Hi Nicky,

Since this question is not related to the http client library, can you open a new thread to discuss it? We will look for the new post and make sure it gets answered.

Thanks,

Ben M

hi Ben,

I'm getting the following errors after following those steps:

Connecting to : Anova Private.

Sending a HTTP GET request to 'https://httpbin.org'

Error! code = -456, desc = httpTask: connect failed


-Antolin-

hi Ben,
perhaps do I need to copy both the .der and .pem from the peer (ie server which is httpbin.org) ?

here is the code snippets relating to the steps, I've copied the .der file into the user area :

/*

/*

void* httpTask(void* pvParameters)
{
bool moreDataFlag = false;
char data[256];
int16_t ret = 0;
int16_t len = 0;
sem_wait(&ipEventSyncObj);
Display_printf(display, 0, 0, "Sending a HTTPS GET request to '%s'\n",
HOSTNAME);

HTTPClient_Handle httpClientHandle;
int16_t statusCode;

}

ret = HTTPClient_setHeader(httpClientHandle, HTTPClient_HFIELD_REQ_USER_AGENT,USER_AGENT,strlen(USER_AGENT),HTTPClient_HFIELD_PERSISTENT);
if (ret < 0) {

}

//ret = HTTPClient_connect(httpClientHandle,HOSTNAME,0,0);
// https enabling
//Update the HTTPClient_connect() call to use the security parameters
ret = HTTPClient_connect(httpClientHandle, HOSTNAME, &httpClientSecParams, 0);
if (ret < 0) {
printError("httpTask: connect failed", ret);
}
ret = HTTPClient_sendRequest(httpClientHandle,HTTP_METHOD_GET,REQUEST_URI,NULL,0,0);
if (ret < 0) {
printError("httpTask: send failed", ret);
}

if (ret != HTTP_SC_OK) {
printError("httpTask: cannot get status", ret);
}

Display_printf(display, 0, 0, "HTTP Response Status Code: %d\n", ret);

len = 0;
do {
ret = HTTPClient_readResponseBody(httpClientHandle, data, sizeof(data), &moreDataFlag);
if (ret < 0) {
printError("httpTask: response body processing failed", ret);
}
Display_printf(display, 0, 0, "%.*s \r\n",ret ,data);
len += ret;
}while (moreDataFlag);

Display_printf(display, 0, 0, "Received %d bytes of payload\n", len);

ret = HTTPClient_disconnect(httpClientHandle);
if (ret < 0)
{
printError("httpTask: disconnect failed", ret);
}

HTTPClient_destroy(httpClientHandle);
return(0);
}

do you have a .der and .pem files you can share to test with a known good https website?

-Antolin-

Ben,
I'm still getting that same error I mentioned and
I changed the url to: https://www.example.com and then used the ssltools.com to download the cert as a .der and specified it simply as "ca.der" file.
I saved the ca.der file under the "/" using uniflash and clicking "add"

Is there a path to this file I need to specify?

hi Ben,

Does sl_DeviceSet() need to be called before the HTTPClient_setHeader() function?
Does it have certain parameters that need to be set?
Any values returned that need saving? assigning to some other functions?

regards,
-Antolin-

Should be fine as long as it is called after the network processor is started and before the HTTPClient_connect() call.
There is an example of using it to set the device time in the doxygen. Open up <SDK Install Location>/docs/wifi_host_driver_api/index.html and look at Modules->Device->sl_DeviceSet.

Best Regards,
Ben M

hi Ben,

I placed the code in the platform.c file and the code snippet looks like below:
void mainThread(void *pvParameters)
{
int32_t status = 0;
pthread_attr_t pAttrs_spawn;
pthread_attr_t pAttrs;
struct sched_param priParam;
int32_t mode;
int16_t ret;

SlDateTime_t dateTime= {0};
dateTime.tm_day = (_u32)7; // Day of month (DD format) range 1-31
dateTime.tm_mon = (_u32)3; // Month (MM format) in the range of 1-12
dateTime.tm_year = (_u32)2018; // Year (YYYY format)
dateTime.tm_hour = (_u32)18; // Hours in the range of 0-23
dateTime.tm_min = (_u32)6; // Minutes in the range of 0-59
dateTime.tm_sec = (_u32)22; // Seconds in the range of 0-59

sl_DeviceSet(SL_DEVICE_GENERAL,
SL_DEVICE_GENERAL_DATE_TIME,
sizeof(SlDateTime_t),
(_u8 *)(&dateTime));

SPI_init();
...

but now I'm getting an error that says:

Connecting to : Anova Private.

Error! code = -2050, desc = Connection failed , error code : %d


-Antolin-

hi Ben,

I'm getting the following error:

Error! code = 2, desc = Failed to set device in STA role, %d
after putting the above code lines in platform.c in the connect() function.

Could you please post and send a copy of your working code, thanks as we're out of time on this and we need the https client working.
please include the changes to the platform.c and httpget.c that made it work for you, thanks

hi Ben,

I'm getting a new error after correcting the above:

Connecting to : Anova Private.

Sending a HTTPS GET request to 'https://httpbin.org'

Error! code = -380, desc = httpTask: connect failed

The corrected code changes in platform.c are the following (right after where the httpTask thread gets created):

  status = pthread_create(&httpThread, &pAttrs, httpTask, NULL);
  if(status)
  {
    printError("Task create failed, error code : %d \r\n", status);
  }
  /* initialize the device */
  mode = sl_Start(0, 0, 0);

Any ideas?  what else is missing do you think?

Hi Antolin,

Where you have the code to configure the role and connect to the local network should be fine because the httpTask will pend on semaphore until the device acquires an IP address, but the way I did it was to have that before I create the httpTask.

Attached is my latest platform.c and httpget.c for your reference (note that not all of the configuration in ConfigureSimpleLinkToDefaultState() is needed).

Are you testing on a corporate network?

platform.c

httpget.c

hi Ben,

Thanks for the files and I'll try them out.

yes I'm testing in a corporate network( I put in the password in previous platform.c in the plain http client and it connected - verified that connects).

Hi

I also got the bad request error when get data from https server

I taraced the code and the cert name  is succesfully port to httpclient_handle when first creat and connect. Then I call sendrequest, it will autoconnect to the server again I found the sec value is change.

Please see if you have idra on this issue

Nicky

Hi Nicky,

Please confirm what server you are using and if you are performing the default get request. Please also share how you are seeing the "auto-connect" to server with the security value changed.

Thanks,
