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

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Http')
$http = new COM("Chilkat.Http");

// If SharePoint Windows classic authentication is used, then set the 
// Login, Password, LoginDomain, and NtlmAuth properties.
$http->Login = 'SHAREPOINT_USERNAME';
$http->Password = 'SHAREPOINT_PASSWORD';
$http->LoginDomain = 'SHAREPOINT_NTLM_DOMAIN';
$http->NtlmAuth = 1;

// 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

// To create a list, we're going to POST to
// https://SHAREPOINT_HTTPS_DOMAIN/_api/web/lists(guid'{list_guid}')
// with a request body containing the following JSON:
// 
// {
//   "__metadata": {
//     "type": "SP.List"
//   },
//   "Title": "New title"
// }

// In this case, the list_guid is "b0d92cec-4be1-4e52-943d-ebcb432e1c3b"
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.HttpRequest')

// We need to add a form digest value in the X-RequestDigest header field.
// See this example for details on
// how to get (and cache) a form digest value
$req->AddHeader('X-RequestDigest','SHAREPOINT_FORM_DIGEST');

// Set the Content-Type, and indicate that a JSON response is desired.
$req->ContentType = 'application/json;odata=verbose';
$req->AddHeader('Accept','application/json;odata=verbose');

// Create and add the JSON body.
// Use this online tool to generate code from sample JSON: 
// Generate Code to Create JSON
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.JsonObject')
$json = new COM("Chilkat.JsonObject");
$json->UpdateString('__metadata.type','SP.List');
$json->UpdateString('Title','New title');

// Send the POST using HTTPS (TLS). Port 443 is the default port for https.
$bUseTls = 1;
// resp is a Chilkat.HttpResponse
$resp = $http->SynchronousRequest('SHAREPOINT_HTTPS_DOMAIN',443,$bUseTls,$req);
if ($http->LastMethodSuccess != 1) {
    print $http->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// The response body contains JSON.

// The expected success response code is 201.
// (Let's also check for 200, just in case things change..)
