curl with Path Variables and Query Param Variables

See more CURL Examples

This example demonstrates using variables located in the path and query params with the {{variable_name}} syntax. Chilkat2-Python

import sys
import chilkat2

success = False

# Variables can occur in the path and query params.  
# Variable names are enclosed between {{ and }}

#  curl -X GET https://httpbin.org/{{verb}}?id={id_value}}
targetCurl = "curl -X GET https://httpbin.org/{{verb}}?id={{id_value}}"

httpCurl = chilkat2.HttpCurl()

# Provide values for variables.
# In this example, "verb" is a path variable, and "id_value" is a query param variable.
httpCurl.SetVar("verb","get")
httpCurl.SetVar("id_value","123")

# Run the curl command.
success = httpCurl.DoYourThing(targetCurl)
if (success == False):
    print(httpCurl.LastErrorText)
    sys.exit()

responseJson = chilkat2.JsonObject()
responseJson.EmitCompact = False

statusCode = httpCurl.StatusCode
print("response status code: " + str(statusCode))

httpCurl.GetResponseJson(responseJson)
print(responseJson.Emit())

# Output:

# response status code: 200
