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 secrets = try chilkat.Secrets.init();
    defer secrets.deinit();

    // On Windows, this is the Windows Credentials Manager
    // On MacOS/iOS, it is the Apple Keychain
    secrets.setLocation("local_manager");

    // Specify the name of the secret.
    // service and username are required.
    // appName and domain are optional.
    // Note: The values are arbitrary and can be anything you want.
    const json = try chilkat.JsonObject.init();
    defer json.deinit();
    json.updateString("appName", "Test2") catch {};
    json.updateString("service", "Custom") catch {};

    // The purpose of this example is to show how arbitrary binary data
    // can be stored as a secret.

    // We'll use a small JPG image that is approximately 2KB in size.
    // You can test using this same JPG at this URL:
    const url = "https://chilkatdownload.com/sample_data/starfish20.jpg";
    const http = try chilkat.Http.init();
    defer http.deinit();
    const bd = try chilkat.BinData.init();

        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try http.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
