HTTP Basic Authentication Test

Demonstrates how to do HTTP basic authentication using Chilkat. Zig

const std = @import("std");
const chilkat = @import("chilkat");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

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

    const http = try chilkat.Http.init();
    defer http.deinit();

    // To use HTTP Basic authentication:
    http.setLogin("myLogin");
    http.setPassword("myPassword");
    http.setBasicAuth(true);

    // Run the test using this URL with the credentials above.
    // (Works while httpbin.org keeps the test endpoint available.)
    const json_response = http.quickGetStr(alloc, "https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/myLogin/myPassword") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try http.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    std.debug.print("Response status code: {d}\n", .{http.getLastStatus()});

    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{json_response});

    // Output:

    // Response status code: 200
    // {
    //   "authenticated": true,
    //   "user": "myLogin"
    // }
}
