How to use getInputStream() to get POST request data in Clojure. I am getting an NullPointerException in Reflector


This is my function to get the msg from email:

    (defn parse-message [request]
    (let [session (javax.mail.Session/getDefaultInstance (java.util.Properties.) nil)
          msg (javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage. session (.getInputStream (:request request)))])

When I run this I get the exception:

Can anyone tell how to resolve this and why I am getting this exception. I imported Java.io InputStream and OutStream both. Is there anything wrong with the code or any other way to parse the message from a received email as post request. Thanks for any help.


Solution

  • Assuming that request is a Ring request map, you can read the POST request body using (slurp (:body request)). Refer https://github.com/ring-clojure/ring/wiki/Concepts#requests for details.
