Disconnect from a REST Server

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.Disconnect, which closes the current HTTP connection. The argument is the maximum number of milliseconds to wait for the close to complete.

import { Rest } from '@chilkat/react-native'

async function chilkatExample() {
  const rest = new Rest();

  // 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.
  const bTls = true;
  const bAutoReconnect = true;
  try {
    await rest.connectAsync('example.com', 443, bTls, bAutoReconnect);
  } catch {
    console.log(rest.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  let responseText: string;
  try {
    responseText = await rest.fullRequestNoBodyAsync('GET', '/api/status');
  } catch {
    console.log(rest.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  console.log(responseText);

  // Close the connection.  The argument is the maximum number of milliseconds to wait for the
  // close to complete.
  try {
    await rest.disconnectAsync(200);
  } catch {
    console.log('The disconnect did not complete within the wait time.');
  }

  console.log('Done.');
