ManageClient and AdminManager don't support UTF8 JSON strings

[derms]

Having non-ascii characters in element range indexes is support by MarkLogic and the REST api, but when using ml-app-deployer and ml-gradle, it fails. The solution is to specify the utf8 charset as part of the content type declaration (as per below)

Details of Error

Consider the config -

{
"range-element-index": [
    {
      "collation": "http://marklogic.com/collation/",
      "invalid-values": "reject",
      "localname": "ÉÉÉ",
      "namespace-uri": "",
      "range-value-positions": false,
      "scalar-type": "string"
    }
]}

When this is included in a database.json file, the payload fails with the following error -

:mlDeployApp
Logging HTTP response body to assist with debugging: {"errorResponse":{"statusCode":"400", "status":"Bad Request", "messageCode":"MANAGE-INVALIDPAYLOAD", "message":"MANAGE-INVALIDPAYLOA
D: (err:FOER0000) Payload has errors in structure, content-type or values. Unable to read request body (check content-type)."}}
:mlDeployApp FAILED

When the rest API is called directly, it works fine -

curl -X PUT --anyauth  -u admin:admin -H "Content-type: application/json" -d '{
"range-element-index": [
    {
      "collation": "http://marklogic.com/collation/",
      "invalid-values": "reject",
      "localname": "ÉÉÉ",
      "namespace-uri": "",
      "range-value-positions": false,
      "scalar-type": "string"
    }
]}' http://localhost:8002/manage/v2/databases/Documents/properties

Solution

Change
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
to
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8);

in the AdminManager and ManageClient classes

Thanks @derms for the catch!

Reopening this - running into some issues in the ml-app-deployer test suite, will track down.

Realized only want to do this when building an HttpEntity
