需要帮助来了解此HTTP GET请求

Question

I am trying the construct a HTTP GET web request that satisfies the following criteria

 GET /v1/session  
 Host: developer.messenger.yahooapis.com  
 Authorization: < Standard OAuth credentials >

From what I know about get requests is that they are something like this :

https://someaddress.com/&parameterA=valA&parameterB=valB

where parameterA and parameterB are the parameters that are required.

Now I want to construct a similar address for the above mentioned criteria. How can I do that. I believe the address would be https://developer.messenger.yahooapis.com however I am not sure what the other requirements are for such a get request. I would appreciate it if someone could disect and specify the requirements of the above(Topmost) Get Request so that I may be able to construct a valid GET request URI.

Answer 1

https://developer.messenger.yahooapis.com so your request url should be like

https://developer.messenger.yahooapis.com?parameterA=valA&parameterB=valB

you get your data in your $_GET array, just add print_r($_GET)

Answer 2

For a request, you need a URL like

https://developer.messenger.yahooapis.com

BUT that is only the hostname. you need to specify a resource that you want to GET like /v1/session , so your URL is

https://developer.messenger.yahooapis.com/v1/session

If you want to pass some parameters you have to signal that the pointing part of the URL is finished. You do this with an ? . Now to add the parameters, you basically add name-value pairs, like var1=value . For multiple params use a & to seperate them. Slapping all together you get a

https://developer.messenger.yahooapis.com/v1/session?var1=value&var2=value

as URL. Now hand it to your HttpGet-method.

HttpGet will now build a request and later send it to https://developer.messenger.yahooapis.com the host/server who will return the resource to your client. To tell the host that you have the rights to access that resource, the request must contain the neccessary login informations, thats what oAuth is for. Those credentials have to be added in the request header before executing the get-request.
