I am wondering if Restler handle validation on JSON request format?

In example, I have this JSON request:

{ "id" : 1, "party_id" : , "description" : "say it here" }

The value for party_id should invalid. Any insights? Thanks.

    JSON Validation in Restler 2.0.5

    Starting from Restler version 2.0.5, restler automatically throws HTTP 400 status with a meaningful error message when the JSON body in the request is malformed.

    for example

    curl -X POST http://restler2.dev/examples/_006_crud/index.php/author -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name": "Another", "email": "another@email.com'

    returns

    {
  "error": {
    "code": 400,
    "message": "Bad Request: Error parsing JSON, malformed JSON"
  }
}

    It requires PHP 5.3 and above

    Update

    Restler 2.0.6 adds error support for older versions of PHP 5

    So help.luracast.com/restler/examples which is using PHP 5.2.17 will return the following response for cURL

    curl -X POST http://help.luracast.com/restler/examples/_006_crud/index.php/authr -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name": "Another", "email": "another@email.com",}'

{
  "error": {
    "code": 400,
    "message": "Bad Request: Error parsing JSON"
  }
}
