// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

let http = chilkat::Http::new();

// Setting the AuthToken property causes the "Authorization: Bearer <token>" header to be added to each request.
// Set AuthToken equal to your token without the keyword "Bearer".
http.set_auth_token("Your access token");

// Send the GET request and get the response text (assuming you know beforehand that the response will be text, such as JSON, XML, HTML, etc.)
let Ok(response_text) = http.quick_get_str("https://www.example.com/something") else {
    // This means something failed where you did not get an HTTP response.
    println!("{}", http.last_error_text());
    return;
};

// If you get here, then you received an HTTP response where you can check the response status code, and the responseText will contain
// the response body.
println!("Response status code = {}", http.last_status());
if http.last_status() != 200 {
    // Probably an error from the server.  Examine the HTTP response body.
    println!("{}", response_text);
    return;
}

// If you get here, the response status code was the expected value indicating success,
// if you know the response is JSON, you can load it into a Chilkat JSON object and continue ...
let json = chilkat::JsonObject::new();
json.set_emit_compact(true);
let _ = json.load(&response_text);
println!("{}", json.emit().unwrap_or_default());
