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

$oHttp = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Http")

; If SharePoint Windows classic authentication is used, then set the 
; Login, Password, LoginDomain, and NtlmAuth properties.
$oHttp.Login = "SHAREPOINT_USERNAME"
$oHttp.Password = "SHAREPOINT_PASSWORD"
$oHttp.LoginDomain = "SHAREPOINT_NTLM_DOMAIN"
$oHttp.NtlmAuth = True

; The more common case is to use SharePoint Online authentication (via the SPOIDCRL cookie).
; If so, do not set Login, Password, LoginDomain, and NtlmAuth, and instead
; establish the cookie as shown at SharePoint Online Authentication

; Indicate that we want a JSON reply
$oHttp.Accept = "application/json;odata=verbose"
$oHttp.AcceptCharset = "utf-8"

Local $sUrl = "https://SHAREPOINT_HTTPS_DOMAIN/_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('/Documents/VCAC-document.docx')"

Local $sJsonReply = $oHttp.QuickGetStr($sUrl)

EndIf

; Examine the file's metadata in JSON format.
$oJson = ObjCreate("Chilkat.JsonObject")

; Make sure it was a success response, and that we really have metadata.
; If it was an error response, then the JSON is error information..
If ($oHttp.LastStatus <> 200) Then

$oLastmod = ObjCreate("Chilkat.CkDateTime")
$oLastmod.SetFromTimestamp($oJson.StringOf("d.TimeLastModified"))

; Once we have the CkDateTime object, we can get the date/time in all sorts of formats:

; Get as a RFC822 GMT string:
Local $bLocalTime = False
ConsoleWrite($oLastmod.GetAsRfc822($bLocalTime) & @CRLF)

; Get as an RFC822 string in the local timezone.
; (remember, the daylight savings that existed at the given time in the past is applied)
$bLocalTime = True
ConsoleWrite($oLastmod.GetAsRfc822($bLocalTime) & @CRLF)

; Get as a 32-bit UNIX time (local or GMT..)
; The Unix time is number of seconds since the Epoch, 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 (UTC). 
Local $iUnixTime = $oLastmod.GetAsUnixTime($bLocalTime)
ConsoleWrite("Unix time: " & $iUnixTime & @CRLF)

; One can also get the as a "DtObj" object for accessing the individual
; parts of the date/time, such as month, day, year, hour, minute, etc.
; The DtObj can be obtained in the GMT or local timezone:
Local $oDtObj = $oLastmod.GetDtObj($bLocalTime)
If ($oLastmod.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite("This should never really happen!" & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

ConsoleWrite($oDtObj.Day & "-" & $oDtObj.Month & "-" & $oDtObj.Year & " " & $oDtObj.Hour & ":" & $oDtObj.Minute _
     & ":" & $oDtObj.Second & @CRLF)
