See more REST Examples

This example demonstrates sending an HTTP GET request without waiting for the response. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

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

rest = Chilkat::CkRest.new()

# Connect to the server using TLS
bAutoReconnect = false
success = rest.Connect("example.com",443,true,bAutoReconnect)
if (success == false)
    print rest.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Send a GET request to https://example.com/some/path 
success = rest.SendReqNoBody("GET","/some/path")
if (success == false)
    print rest.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# OK, the request was sent.
# Close the connection.
maxWaitMs = 50
rest.Disconnect(maxWaitMs)

print "GET Request Sent." + "\n";
