HTTP Digest-MD5 Authentication Testing with httpbin.org

See more HTTP Examples

The URL https://httpbin.org/digest-auth/auth/user/passwd is password protected with user="user" and password="passwd". It requires Digest-MD5 authentication. Chilkat will automatically handle Digest-MD5 authentication as required by the server response. In this case, however, the server will fail the authentication unless a Cookie is included in the request. The cookie can have any name and any value. (Yes, this is ridiculous, and many developers have probably spent countless hours assuming their Digest-MD5 implementations were incorrect.) Zig

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

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

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

    const http = try chilkat.Http.init();
    defer http.deinit();

    http.setLogin("user");
    http.setPassword("passwd");

    // Add a cookie to satisfy httpbin.org's desire for cookies..
    // Otherwise, it will fail the perfectly valid Digest-MD5 authentication.
    http.setRequestHeader("Cookie", "something=\"something\"");

    const str_response = http.quickGetStr(alloc, "https://httpbin.org/digest-auth/auth/user/passwd") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try http.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{str_response});

    const status = http.getLastStatus();
    std.debug.print("response status code = {d}\n", .{status});

    // The output of this program is:
    //
    //     {
    //       "authenticated": true,
    //       "user": "user"
    //     }
    //
    //     response status code = 200
