Duplicate curl POST with JSON Body

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates how to duplicate the following curl command, which sends a POST w/ a JSON body.

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -i https://my-store.com/wp-json/wc/v2/products/batch?consumer_key=YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY&consumer_secret=YOUR_CONSUMER_SECRET  -d @test_product.txt

C++

#include <CkRest.h>
#include <CkStringBuilder.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

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

    CkRest rest;

    // Connect using TLS.
    bool bAutoReconnect = true;
    success = rest.Connect("my-store.com",443,true,bAutoReconnect);

    // test_product.txt contains this string:
    CkStringBuilder sbJson;
    sbJson.Append("{\"create\": [{\"name\": \"Woo Single #1\",\"type\": \"simple\",\"regular_price\": \"21.99\"}]}");

    // Add query parameters

    // Add the Content-Type HTTP request header.
    success = rest.AddHeader("Content-Type","application/json");

    const char *jsonResponseStr = rest.fullRequestString("POST","/wp-json/wc/v2/products/batch?consumer_key=YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY&consumer_secret=YOUR_CONSUMER_SECRET",sbJson.getAsString());
    if (rest.get_LastMethodSuccess() != true) {
        std::cout << rest.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
        return;
    }

    // Show the JSON response.  (See below for a sample JSON response.)
    std::cout << "Json Response: " << jsonResponseStr << "\r\n";
    }
