Rust Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

HTTP PUT JSON

See more HTTP Examples

Demonstrates how to send a JSON PUT and get the JSON response body. Rust

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

let req = chilkat::HttpRequest::new();
let http = chilkat::Http::new();

// The PUT request to be sent will look like this:

// PUT /request HTTP/1.1
// Content-Type: application/jsonrequest
// Cookie: JSESSIONID=1234
// Content-Encoding: identity
// Host: json.penzance.org
// Accept: application/jsonrequest
// Accept-Encoding:
// Content-Length: 72
// 
// {"user":"doctoravatar@penzance.com","forecast":7,"t":"vlIj","zip":94089}

// First, remove default header fields that would be automatically
// sent.  (These headers are harmless, and shouldn't need to 
// be suppressed, but just in case...)
http.set_accept_charset("");
http.set_user_agent("");
http.set_accept_language("");

// Suppress the Accept-Encoding header by disallowing 
// a gzip response:
http.set_allow_gzip(false);

// If a Cookie needs to be added...
http.set_request_header("Cookie", "JSESSIONID=1234");

// Add the Content-Encoding: identity header.
http.set_request_header("Content-Encoding", "identity");

// Modify the default "Accept" header:
http.set_accept("application/jsonrequest");

let json_text = "{\"user\":\"doctoravatar@penzance.com\",\"forecast\":7,\"t\":\"vlIj\",\"zip\":94089}".to_string();

// IMPORTANT: Make sure to change the URL, JSON text,
// and other data items to your own values.  The URL used
// in this example will not actually work.

let resp = chilkat::HttpResponse::new();
if http.http_str("PUT", "http://json.penzance.org/request", &json_text, "utf-8", "application/jsonrequest", &resp).is_err() {
    println!("{}", http.last_error_text());
    return;
}

println!("Response status code: {}", resp.status_code());
println!("Response JSON:");
println!("{}", resp.body_str());
