REST Upload Bandwidth Throttle

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates how to use upload bandwidth throttling with the REST API. This example will upload a file to Drobox using a file stream, with a limit on the bandwidth that can be used for the transfer. 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.

    // A Dropbox access token should have been previously obtained.
    // Dropbox access tokens do not expire.
    // See Dropbox Access Token.

    // To use bandwidth throttling, the connection should be made using the socket API.
    // This provides numerous properties to customize the connection, such as
    // BandwidthThrottleDown, BandwidthThrottleUp, ClientIpAddress, ClintPort, Http Proxy,
    // KeepAlive, PreferIpv6, RequireSslCertVerify, SoRcvBuf, SoSndBuf, SoReuseAddr,
    // SOCKS proxy, TcpNoSDelay, TlsPinSet, TlsCipherSuite, SslAllowedCiphers, etc.

    const socket = try chilkat.Socket.init();

        std.debug.print("Connect Fail Reason: {d}\n", .{socket.getConnectFailReason()});
        return;
    };

    // Set the upload bandwidth throttle rate to 50000 bytes per second.
    socket.setBandwidthThrottleUp(50000);

    const rest = try chilkat.Rest.init();

    // Tell the REST object to use the connected socket.
    rest.useConnection(socket, true) catch {};

    // Add request headers.
    rest.addHeader("Content-Type", "application/octet-stream") catch {};

    // The upload "parameters" contained in JSON passed in an HTTP request header.
    // This is the JSON to be added in this example:
