NAME¶
HTTP::postURL - Post data to a URL by HTTP.
SYNOPSIS¶
String postURL( String post, HTTPURL url, [Pair<String, String>
] headers=createArray(1), HTTPversion version=HTTP10, [String]
certfiles=[] )
ARGUMENTS¶
post The data to post, encoded as application/x-www-form-urlencoded data
url A
HTTP.HTTPURL (3kaya)
headers A list of key/value pairs of extra HTTP headers (optional,
defaulting to the empty list)
version The HTTP version
certfiles A list of SSL certificate files, each containing one or more
PEM encoded certificates of trusted Certification Authorities, used for HTTPS
connections. This list may be empty (the default), but this is much less
secure. For HTTP connections, this parameter is ignored.
DESCRIPTION¶
Post data to a URL by HTTP. The String returned will contain the HTTP response
headers and response body exactly as sent by the server. Because Strings may
not contain null bytes, this function is not suitable for requests that may
return binary data.
