Perl Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

WebDAV PROPFIND

See more HTTP Examples

Demonstrates how to send a WebDAV PROPFIND HTTP request. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

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

$req = chilkat::CkHttpRequest->new();
$http = chilkat::CkHttp->new();

#  The PROPFIND request to be sent will look similar to this:
#  This is from RFC 4918 at http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4918#section-9.1.3

#       PROPFIND /file HTTP/1.1
#       Host: www.example.com
#       Content-type: application/xml; charset="utf-8";
#       Content-Length: xxxx
#  
#       <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
#       <D:propfind xmlns:D="DAV:">
#         <D:prop xmlns:R="http://ns.example.com/boxschema/">
#           <R:bigbox/>
#           <R:author/>
#           <R:DingALing/>
#           <R:Random/>
#         </D:prop>
#       </D:propfind>

#  Build the HTTP request object. 

#  The HTTP verb should be "PROPFIND";
$req->put_HttpVerb("PROPFIND");

#  The Content-Type should be "application/xml", and
#  the charset attribute in the Content-Type header should
#  be utf-8:
$req->put_ContentType("application/xml");
$req->put_Charset("utf-8");
$req->put_SendCharset(1);

#  Load the request body with the XML.  Your application 
#  is free to construct the XML using any means desired.
#  Once the XML is prepared, load it into the request body
#  like this:
$xmlBody = "This is the string that should contain the XML body...";
$success = $req->LoadBodyFromString($xmlBody,"utf-8");
if ($success == 0) {
    print $req->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

#  For this example, pretend the WEBDAV endpoint is:
#  https://webdav.chilkatstorage.com/

#  Note: There is no actual "chilkatstorage.com" site.  
#  This is only an example...

#  The "path" part of this endpoint URL is simply "/".

#  Send the request to the WebDAV endpoint using 
#  the HttpSReq method:

$resp = chilkat::CkHttpResponse->new();
$success = $http->HttpSReq("webdav.chilkatstorage.com",443,1,$req,$resp);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $http->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

#  Get the XML response:

$responseXml = $resp->bodyStr();
print "XML Response: " . $responseXml . "\r\n";

#  Get the response status code, such as 207

$statusCode = $resp->get_StatusCode();
print "StatusCode = " . $statusCode . "\r\n";
