(Swift) POST application/json HTTPS Request

Demonstrates how to send an HTTPS POST where the request body and response body both have the application/json Content-Type. Also demonstrates how to add a few custom headers to the request.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    // This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code

    let http = CkoHttp()!

    // Add a few custom headers.
    http.setRequestHeader("Client-ID", value: "my_client_id")
    http.setRequestHeader("Client-Token", value: "my_client_token")

    http.accept = "application/json"

    var url: String? = "https://api.fiscallog.eu/sign/v1"
    var jsonRequestBody: String? = "{ .... }"
    let resp = CkoHttpResponse()!
    success = http.httpStr("POST", url: url, bodyStr: jsonRequestBody, charset: "utf-8", contentType: "application/json", response: resp)
    if success == false {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("Response status code = \(resp.statusCode.intValue)")
    var jsonResponseStr: String? = resp.bodyStr

    print("\(jsonResponseStr!)")
