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. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

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 = Chilkat::CkHttpCurl.new()

#  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() + "\n";
    exit
end

responseJson = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
responseJson.put_EmitCompact(false)

statusCode = httpCurl.get_StatusCode()
print "response status code: " + statusCode.to_s() + "\n";

httpCurl.GetResponseJson(responseJson)
print responseJson.emit() + "\n";

#  Output:

#  response status code: 200
