Send a Form-URL-Encoded REST Request

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.FullRequestFormUrlEncoded, which sends an application/x-www-form-urlencoded request. The body is built from the query parameters added to the object, and the response body is returned as text.

import 'package:chilkat/chilkat.dart';

void main() {
  final rest = CkRest();
  final bTls = true;
  final bAutoReconnect = true;
  try {
    rest.connect('example.com', 443, bTls, bAutoReconnect);
  } on ChilkatException catch (e) {
    print(e.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  // The application/x-www-form-urlencoded body is built from the query parameters added to the object.
  rest.addQueryParam('username', 'alice');
  rest.addQueryParam('action', 'login');

  // Send the form-url-encoded request.  The parameters become the request body rather than the URL
  // query string.
  final String responseText;
  try {
    responseText = rest.fullRequestFormUrlEncoded('POST', '/api/login');
  } on ChilkatException catch (e) {
    print(e.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  print(responseText);
}
