Create a New Table in an Azure Storage Account

See more Azure Table Service Examples

Creates a new table using the Azure Table Service REST API. Zig

const std = @import("std");
const chilkat = @import("chilkat");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

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

    const rest = try chilkat.Rest.init();
    defer rest.deinit();

    // Implements the following CURL command:

    // curl -X POST \
    //   -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    //   -H "Accept: application/json;odata=fullmetadata" \
    //   -H "Prefer: return-content" \
    //   -d '{
    //     "TableName":"mytable"
    // }' https://myaccount.table.core.windows.net/Tables

    // Use the following online tool to generate REST code from a CURL command
    // Convert a cURL Command to REST Source Code

    // IMPORTANT: Make sure to change "myaccount" to your actual Azure Storage Account name.
    // URL: https://myaccount.table.core.windows.net/Tables

    az_auth.setAccount("myaccount");
    az_auth.setScheme("SharedKey");
    az_auth.setService("Table");

    // This causes the "x-ms-version: 2019-07-07" header to be automatically added.
    az_auth.setXMsVersion("2019-07-07");
    try rest.setAuthAzureStorage(az_auth);

    // Note: The application does not need to explicitly set the following
    // headers: Content-Length, x-ms-date, Authorization.  These headers
    // are automatically set by Chilkat.

    // Note: The above code does not need to be repeatedly called for each REST request.
    // The rest object can be setup once, and then many requests can be sent.  Chilkat will automatically
    // reconnect within a FullRequest* method as needed.  It is only the very first connection that is explicitly
    // made via the Connect method.

    // Use this online tool to generate code from sample JSON:
    // Generate Code to Create JSON
