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.

<?php

include("chilkat.php");

$success = false;

$rest = new CkRest();
$bTls = true;
$bAutoReconnect = true;
$success = $rest->Connect('example.com',443,$bTls,$bAutoReconnect);
if ($success == false) {
    print $rest->lastErrorText() . "\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 = new CkStringBuilder();
$sbRequest->Append('{ \'query\': \'chilkat\' }');

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

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

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

print $responseText . "\n";
