Add a Query Parameter to a REST Request

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.AddQueryParam, which adds or replaces a query-string parameter. The 1st argument is the parameter name and the 2nd is its value; Chilkat URL-encodes both as needed.

load ./chilkat.dll

set success 0

set rest [new_CkRest]

#  Connect to the REST server.  The 3rd argument enables TLS (use 1 for HTTPS on port 443),
#  and the 4th enables automatic reconnection if the connection is dropped between requests.
set bTls 1
set bAutoReconnect 1
set success [CkRest_Connect $rest "example.com" 443 $bTls $bAutoReconnect]
if {$success == 0} then {
    puts [CkRest_lastErrorText $rest]
    delete_CkRest $rest
    exit
}

#  Add query-string parameters.  The 1st argument is the parameter name and the 2nd is its value.
#  Chilkat automatically URL-encodes names and values as needed.
CkRest_AddQueryParam $rest "q" "chilkat rest"
CkRest_AddQueryParam $rest "limit" "10"

#  For a GET request the parameters are appended to the URL query string.
set responseText [CkRest_fullRequestNoBody $rest "GET" "/api/search"]
if {[CkRest_get_LastMethodSuccess $rest] == 0} then {
    puts [CkRest_lastErrorText $rest]
    delete_CkRest $rest
    exit
}

puts "$responseText"

delete_CkRest $rest
