Rust Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Example: Http.HttpBd method

Shows how to use the HttpBd method to send an HTTP POST request with the contents of a BinData as the request body. The example sends the following request:

POST /api/v1/sites/123/deploys HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
Accept: */*
Accept-Encoding: gzip
Content-Type: application/zip
Content-Length: 123456

[binary data bytes of the BinData]

Rust

let local_file_path = "C:/example/zips/data.zip".to_string();
let bd = chilkat::BinData::new();
if bd.load_file(&local_file_path).is_err() {
    println!("{}", bd.last_error_text());
    return;
}

let url = "https://example.com/api/v1/sites/123/deploys".to_string();

// Send a POST with the contents of the BinData in the binary HTTP request body.
let resp = chilkat::HttpResponse::new();
let http = chilkat::Http::new();
if http.http_bd("POST", &url, &bd, "application/zip", &resp).is_err() {
    println!("{}", http.last_error_text());
    return;
}

println!("Response Status Code: {}", resp.status_code());
println!("Response body:");
println!("{}", resp.body_str());
