POST JSON Without Waiting for the Response

See more REST Examples

This example demonstrates sending a POST w/ content-type "application/json" where the body of the POST contains a JSON document. The POST is sent, but we don't wait for the response. Go

    success := false

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

    rest := chilkat.NewRest()

    // Connect to the server using TLS
    bAutoReconnect := false
    success = rest.Connect("example.com",443,true,bAutoReconnect)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(rest.LastErrorText())
        rest.DisposeRest()
        return
    }

    // Create some sample JSON to be sent in the body of the request.
    sbJson := chilkat.NewStringBuilder()
    sbJson.Append("{\"create\": [{\"name\": \"Woo Single #1\",\"type\": \"simple\",\"regular_price\": \"21.99\"}]}")

    // Add the Content-Type HTTP request header.
    rest.AddHeader("Content-Type","application/json")

    // Just send the request.  Don't read the response.
    // The request is sent to https://example.com/something?arg1=xyz&arg2=abc
    somePath := "/something?arg1=xyz&arg2=abc"
    success = rest.SendReqSb("POST",somePath,sbJson)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(rest.LastErrorText())
        rest.DisposeRest()
        sbJson.DisposeStringBuilder()
        return
    }

    // OK, the request was sent.
    // Close the connection.
    maxWaitMs := 50
    rest.Disconnect(maxWaitMs)

    fmt.Println("JSON POST Sent.")

    rest.DisposeRest()
    sbJson.DisposeStringBuilder()
