CkPython Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Transition from Http.PostUrlEncoded to Http.HttpReq

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated PostUrlEncoded method calls with HttpReq.

Sends the following raw HTTP request:

POST /echoPost.asp HTTP/1.1
Host: www.chilkatsoft.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 50

company=example&ip=111.111.111.111&url=example.com

CkPython

import sys
import chilkat

success = False

http = chilkat.CkHttp()

url = "https://www.chilkatsoft.com/echoPost.asp"

req = chilkat.CkHttpRequest()
req.AddParam("company","example")
req.AddParam("ip","111.111.111.111")
req.AddParam("url","example.com")

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  The PostUrlEncoded method is deprecated:

# responseObj is a CkHttpResponse
responseObj = http.PostUrlEncoded(url,req)
if (http.get_LastMethodSuccess() == False):
    print(http.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

#  ...
#  ...

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  Do the equivalent using HttpReq.
#  Your application creates a new, empty HttpResponse object which is passed 
#  in the last argument and filled upon success.

req2 = chilkat.CkHttpRequest()
req2.AddParam("company","example")
req2.AddParam("ip","111.111.111.111")
req2.AddParam("url","example.com")

req2.put_HttpVerb("POST")
req2.put_ContentType("application/x-www-form-urlencoded")

resp = chilkat.CkHttpResponse()
success = http.HttpReq(url,req2,resp)
if (success == False):
    print(http.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

#  Results are contained in the HTTP response object...
