Add a Query Parameter to a REST Request

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.AddQueryParam, which adds or replaces a query-string parameter. The 1st argument is the parameter name and the 2nd is its value; Chilkat URL-encodes both as needed.

<?php

$success = 0;

$rest = new COM("Chilkat.Rest");

//  Connect to the REST server.  The 3rd argument enables TLS (use 1 for HTTPS on port 443),
//  and the 4th enables automatic reconnection if the connection is dropped between requests.
$bTls = 1;
$bAutoReconnect = 1;
$success = $rest->Connect('example.com',443,$bTls,$bAutoReconnect);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $rest->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

//  Add query-string parameters.  The 1st argument is the parameter name and the 2nd is its value.
//  Chilkat automatically URL-encodes names and values as needed.
$rest->AddQueryParam('q','chilkat rest');
$rest->AddQueryParam('limit','10');

//  For a GET request the parameters are appended to the URL query string.
$responseText = $rest->fullRequestNoBody('GET','/api/search');
if ($rest->LastMethodSuccess == 0) {
    print $rest->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

print $responseText . "\n";
