Send a REST Request using StringBuilder Bodies

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.FullRequestSb, which sends a complete request whose text body is read from a StringBuilder and stores the text response body in a second StringBuilder.

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

$rest = chilkat::CkRest->new();
$bTls = 1;
$bAutoReconnect = 1;
$success = $rest->Connect("example.com",443,$bTls,$bAutoReconnect);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $rest->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

#  FullRequestSb sends a request whose text body is read from a StringBuilder and stores the text
#  response body in a second StringBuilder.  This avoids extra string conversions for large bodies.
$sbRequest = chilkat::CkStringBuilder->new();
$sbRequest->Append("{ \"query\": \"chilkat\" }");

$rest->AddHeader("Content-Type","application/json");

$sbResponse = chilkat::CkStringBuilder->new();
$success = $rest->FullRequestSb("POST","/api/search",$sbRequest,$sbResponse);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $rest->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

$responseText = $sbResponse->getAsString();
if ($sbResponse->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 0) {
    print $sbResponse->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

print $responseText . "\r\n";
