how to insert json data in curl using visual studio code-CodePudding

I am trying to insert the data using curl in Visual studio code.

PS C:\Golang> curl -v  http://localhost:9090/  -d '{"id": 1, "name": "tea","description": "Nice Tea"}' |jq

parse error: Invalid numeric literal at line 1, column 7
PS C:\Golang>

The structure definition for the request is

type Product struct {
    ID          int     `json:"id"`
    Name        string  `json:"name"`
    Description string  `json:"description"`
    Price       float32 `json:"price"`
    SKU         string  `json:"sku"`
    CreatedOn   string  `json:"-"`
    UpdatedOn   string  `json:"-"`
    DeletedOn   string  `json:"-"`
}

I went through some of the older question they were suggesting to send the data as d '{"id": 1", "name": "tea","description": "Nice Tea"}' but still it failed. Please help me and thanks in advance.

CodePudding user response：

Try escaping quotation marks like below:

curl -v --data '{\"id\": 1, \"name\": \"tea\",\"description\": \"Nice Tea\"}'  http://localhost:9090/

Or if you have complex json data and you want to avoid escaping, you can pass in the json request body as a file:

curl -v  -d '@dummy.json'  http://localhost:9090/
