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. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = 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}}
    var targetCurl: String? = "curl -X GET https://httpbin.org/{{verb}}?id={{id_value}}"

    let httpCurl = CkoHttpCurl()!

    // Provide values for variables.
    // In this example, "verb" is a path variable, and "id_value" is a query param variable.
    httpCurl.setVar(varName: "verb", varValue: "get")
    httpCurl.setVar(varName: "id_value", varValue: "123")

    // Run the curl command.
    success = httpCurl.doYourThing(targetCurl: targetCurl)
    if success == false {
        print("\(httpCurl.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    let responseJson = CkoJsonObject()!
    responseJson.emitCompact = false

    var statusCode: Int = httpCurl.statusCode.intValue
    print("response status code: \(statusCode)")

    httpCurl.getResponseJson(json: responseJson)
    print("\(responseJson.emit()!)")

    // Output:

    // response status code: 200
    // {
    //   "args": {
    //     "id": "123"
    //   },
    //   "headers": {
    //     "Host": "httpbin.org",
    //     "X-Amzn-Trace-Id": "Root=1-69e92914-5d4136d240f2f7fe1056f126"
    //   },
    //   "origin": "222.222.222.222",
    //   "url": "https://httpbin.org/get?id=123"
    // }
