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. Xbase++

LOCAL nSuccess
LOCAL cTargetCurl
LOCAL oHttpCurl
LOCAL oResponseJson
LOCAL nStatusCode

nSuccess := 0

//  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}}
cTargetCurl := "curl -X GET https://httpbin.org/{{verb}}?id={{id_value}}"

oHttpCurl := CreateObject("Chilkat.HttpCurl")

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

//  Run the curl command.
