Add a Query Parameter from a StringBuilder

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.AddQueryParamSb, which adds or replaces a query parameter whose value is read from a StringBuilder. The 1st argument is the name and the 2nd is the StringBuilder.

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

local rest = chilkat.Rest.new()

-- Connect to the REST server.  The 3rd argument enables TLS (use true for HTTPS on port 443),
-- and the 4th enables automatic reconnection if the connection is dropped between requests.
local bTls = true
local bAutoReconnect = true
local success = rest:connect("example.com", 443, bTls, bAutoReconnect)
if not success then
    print(rest.last_error_text)
    return
end

-- The parameter value can also be supplied from a StringBuilder.  The 1st argument is the name and
-- the 2nd is the StringBuilder holding the value.
local sbValue = chilkat.StringBuilder.new()
sbValue:append("chilkat rest")

rest:add_query_param_sb("q", sbValue)

local responseText = rest:full_request_no_body("GET", "/api/search")
if not rest.last_method_success then
    print(rest.last_error_text)
    return
end

print(responseText)
