# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

set http [new_CkHttp]

# If SharePoint Windows classic authentication is used, then set the 
# Login, Password, LoginDomain, and NtlmAuth properties.
CkHttp_put_Login $http "SHAREPOINT_USERNAME"
CkHttp_put_Password $http "SHAREPOINT_PASSWORD"
CkHttp_put_LoginDomain $http "SHAREPOINT_NTLM_DOMAIN"
CkHttp_put_NtlmAuth $http 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

# This example will check in the file named "penguins2.jpg" 
# which is located in the "/Documents" folder.

set req [new_CkHttpRequest]

CkHttpRequest_put_HttpVerb $req "POST"
# Note that our path uses GetFileByServerRelativeUrl and not GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl
# Also, if your Sharepoint site is within a site collection, the URL is formatted like this (where "teamA" is the name of the site)
# /sites/teamA/_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('/sites/teamA/Documents/penguins2.jpg')/CheckIn(comment='Comment',checkintype=0)
CkHttpRequest_put_Path $req "/_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('/Documents/penguins2.jpg')/CheckIn(comment='Comment',checkintype=0)"

# 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
CkHttpRequest_AddHeader $req "X-RequestDigest" "SHAREPOINT_FORM_DIGEST"

# Send the POST using HTTPS (TLS). Port 443 is the default port for https.

# resp is a CkHttpResponse
