Uci set wireless configuration with ubus

For Developers
1

Hello everyone, I'm having trouble doing a curl set configuration using ubus to update my disabled value of wireless interface. Anyone can give me an example? I always receive the status code [2] => Invalid Argument
My steps:

  1. curl -d '{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "call", "params": [ "00000000000000000000000000000000", "session", "login", { "username": "root", "password": secret } ] }' url
  2. curl -s -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"call","params": [UBUS_SESSION,"uci","get",{"config": "'wireless'", "section": "'radio0'", "option":"'disabled'"}]}' -g url
  3. curl -s -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"call","params": [UBUS_SESSION,"uci","set",{"config": "'wireless'", "section": "radio0", "option":"disabled", "values":"1"}]}' -g url
    What I'm doing wrong? I cant get a new ubus session and get disabled value but i cant set a new value..

Hi, for the set operation use this payload:

{
   "jsonrpc": "2.0",
   "id": 1,
   "method": "call",
   "params": [
      "UBUS_SESSION",
      "uci",
      "get",
      {
         "config": "wireless",
         "section": "radio0",         
         "values": {
            "disabled": 0
         }
      }
   ]
}

Alternatively drop the disabled option entirely using the delete call with this payload:

{
   "jsonrpc": "2.0",
   "id": 1,
   "method": "call",
   "params": [
      "UBUS_SESSION",
      "uci",
      "delete",
      {
         "config": "wireless",
         "section": "radio0",         
         "options": [
            "disabled"
         ]
      }
   ]
}

It doenst work anymore... I was doing

 curl -s -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"call","params":
 ["'$UBUS_SESSION'","uci","set",{"config":"'teste_wireless'","section":"'radio0'",
"values": { "disabled":1}}]}' -g http://[2016:900d:c0de::1022]:80/ubus

But it had no effect in my device when i do a uci commit

curl -s -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"call","params":
 ["'$UBUS_SESSION'","uci","commit",{"config":"'teste_wireless'"}]}' -g 
http://[2016:900d:c0de::1022]:80/ubus

In documentation (https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/ubus) for uci set we had

uci	set	{ "package": "package",
  "section": "sname",
  "option":  "oname",
  "value":   "value" }

Can you help me?
