(AutoIt) Shopify Private Authentication for Private Apps

Shopify private authentication is for interacting with your own store through private applications. It uses HTTP "Basic" authentication with your Shopify private application key and secret key.

This example demonstrates how to send a private authenticated request using Chilkat Http, and then the same using Chilkat Rest.

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

; First demonstrate sending a simple request using Shopify private authentication w/ the Chilkat Http API.
$oHttp = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Http")

; To use HTTP Basic Authentication with any HTTP request, we simply set the Login, Password, and BasicAuth properties.
; Important: All HTTP requests using Basic authentication must be over SSL/TLS.
$oHttp.Login = "SHOPIFY_PRIVATE_API_KEY"
$oHttp.Password = "SHOPIFY_PRIVATE_API_SECRET_KEY"
$oHttp.BasicAuth = True

; Make sure to replace "chilkat" with your store name.
Local $oResp = $oHttp.QuickGetObj("https://chilkat.myshopify.com/admin/products.json")
If ($oHttp.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oHttp.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

; Examine the response code.
If ($oResp.StatusCode <> 200) Then
    ConsoleWrite("Received error response code: " & $oResp.StatusCode & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite("Response body:" & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite($oResp.BodyStr & @CRLF)

    Exit
EndIf

; Success.
ConsoleWrite("Success." & @CRLF)

; Examine the JSON response 
$oSbJson = ObjCreate("Chilkat.StringBuilder")
$oResp.GetBodySb($oSbJson)

$oJson = ObjCreate("Chilkat.JsonObject")
$oJson.LoadSb($oSbJson)
$oJson.EmitCompact = False
ConsoleWrite($oJson.Emit() & @CRLF)

; -------------------------------------------------
; Now let's do the same using the Chilkat Rest API.
$oRest = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Rest")

; Provide the private app credentials:
$oRest.SetAuthBasic("SHOPIFY_PRIVATE_API_KEY","SHOPIFY_PRIVATE_API_SECRET_KEY")

; Connect to the shopify server.
Local $bTls = True
Local $iPort = 443
Local $bAutoReconnect = True
; Make sure to replace "chilkat" with your store name.
Local $bSuccess = $oRest.Connect("chilkat.myshopify.com",$iPort,$bTls,$bAutoReconnect)
If ($bSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oRest.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

$oSbJson.Clear 
$bSuccess = $oRest.FullRequestNoBodySb("GET","/admin/products.json",$oSbJson)
If ($oRest.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oRest.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

If ($oRest.ResponseStatusCode <> 200) Then
    ConsoleWrite("Received error response code: " & $oRest.ResponseStatusCode & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite("Response body:" & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite($oSbJson.GetAsString() & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

; Success...
$oJson.LoadSb($oSbJson)
ConsoleWrite($oJson.Emit() & @CRLF)
