About
mhttpd.js contains javascript function wrappers for most MIDAS AJAX functions typically used for implementing interactive custom pages for MIDAS experiments.
AJAX is a set of web development techniques used to construct interactive web applications:
mhttpd.js is typically served by mhttpd from $MIDASSYS/resources/mhttpd.js
<html> <head> ... <script src='mhttpd.js'></script> ... </head> ... </html>
A mostly up to date copy of mhttpd.js is linked here:
- http://ladd00.triumf.ca/~daqweb/doc/midas/resources/mhttpd.js
- https://bitbucket.org/tmidas/midas/src/HEAD/resources/mhttpd.js?at=develop
An example for using all mhttpd.js functions is included in the MIDAS distribution under examples/javascript1:
- http://ladd00.triumf.ca/~daqweb/doc/midas/examples/javascript1/
- http://ladd00.triumf.ca/~daqweb/doc/midas/examples/javascript1/example.html
MIDAS AJAX functions can be accessed directly without using mhttpd.js wrappers (i.e. using the JSON-P script-tag method)

ODBSet
ODBGet
- BUG: read the BUG sections in AJAX#jget
ODBMGet
Valid ODB path targets are: simple variables and arrays (specified as "/eq/foo/var/array[*]").
ODBMGet for subdirectories does not work (AJAX jget returns correct data, but incorrectly decoded by ODBMGet() javascript code).
ODBMGet for arrays specified without "[*]" is unknown.
- BUG: read the BUG sections in AJAX#jget
ODBKey
(doc incomplete)
Usage:
var key = new ODBKey("/Equipment/RpcExample/Variables/SLOW");
Returns a javascript object with data fields corresponding to the data fields of MIDAS KEY (midas.h):
{"name":"SLOW","type":"TID_DOUBLE","num_values":"3","item_size":"8","last_written":"1376633931"}
ODBCopy
Usage:
var data_json = ODBCopy("/Equipment/RpcExample/Variables", "json"); var obj = JSON.parse(data_json); document.getElementById('json_data0').innerHTML = obj.SLOW[0];
Return value:
{ "SLOW/key" : { "type" : 10, "num_values" : 3, "last_written" : 1376634320 }, "SLOW" : [ 2357, 1376634320, -8.6602540236010100e+01 ] }
ODBMCopy
Usage:
var paths = [ "/Equipment/deapvme01/Settings/EnableControl", "/Equipment/deapvme01/Settings/mainSwitch", "/Equipment/deapvme01/Readback/sysMainSwitch.0", "/Equipment/deapvme01/Variables", "/Equipment/deapvme02/Settings/EnableControl", "/Equipment/deapvme02/Settings/mainSwitch", "/Equipment/deapvme02/Readback/sysMainSwitch.0", "/Equipment/deapvme02/Variables", "/Equipment/deapvme03/Settings/EnableControl", "/Equipment/deapvme03/Settings/mainSwitch", "/Equipment/deapvme03/Readback/sysMainSwitch.0", "/Equipment/deapvme03/Variables", ]; ODBMCopy(paths, load_callback, "json"); ... function load_callback(data) { var obj = JSON.parse(data); document.getElementById('enableControl1').innerHTML = obj[0].EnableControl; document.getElementById('mainSwitch1').innerHTML = obj[1]['mainSwitch'] + " / " + obj[2]['sysMainSwitch.0']; document.getElementById('p5v1').innerHTML = obj[3].current[0]; ...
