curl with Path Variables and Query Param Variables

See more CURL Examples

This example demonstrates using variables located in the path and query params with the {{variable_name}} syntax. Xojo Plugin

Dim success As Boolean
success = False

// Variables can occur in the path and query params.  
// Variable names are enclosed between {{ and }}

//  curl -X GET https://httpbin.org/{{verb}}?id={id_value}}
Dim targetCurl As String
targetCurl = "curl -X GET https://httpbin.org/{{verb}}?id={{id_value}}"

Dim httpCurl As New Chilkat.HttpCurl

// Provide values for variables.
// In this example, "verb" is a path variable, and "id_value" is a query param variable.
httpCurl.SetVar "verb","get"
httpCurl.SetVar "id_value","123"

// Run the curl command.
success = httpCurl.DoYourThing(targetCurl)
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(httpCurl.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

Dim responseJson As New Chilkat.JsonObject
responseJson.EmitCompact = False

Dim statusCode As Int32
statusCode = httpCurl.StatusCode
System.DebugLog("response status code: " + Str(statusCode))

success = httpCurl.GetResponseJson(responseJson)
System.DebugLog(responseJson.Emit())

// Output:

// response status code: 200
