将curl命令转换为httparty

Question

I want to consume some API data from a Rails app. A curl example is curl --data 'api_key=your_api_key&api_secret=your_api_secret&host_id=your_user_host_id' https://api.zoom.us/v1/webinar/list I have experimented with this at the terminal and I am seeing expected responses. I'm now experimenting in a ruby script using httparty. My question is how should I handle the 'stuff' before the endpoint (api_key…secret…ect)? Are these headers?

In regard to curl --data only tells me that it is a post request, but I'm not sure how that translates to httparty.

Here is a first attempt:

require 'httparty'

api_key = 'myKey'
api_secret = 'secret'
host_id = 'host'
data_type = 'JSON'

response = HTTParty.post("api_key&api_secret&host_id&data_type https://api.zoom.us/v1/webinar/list/registration")

puts response.parsed_response

But this gives me a bad URI response. If I run this same script with the endpoint only I do get a response code back from zoom saying that API key and secret are required.

Looking at this example I think this should work:

require 'httparty'

api_key = 'myKey'
api_secret = 'secret'
host_id = 'host'
data_type = 'JSON'

options = {
  body: {
    api_key: api_key,
    api_secret: api_secret,
    host_id: host_id,
    data_type: data_type
  }
}
response = HTTParty.post("https://api.zoom.us/v1/webinar/list/registration", options)

puts response.parsed_response

I get the response:

{"error"=>{"code"=>200, "message"=>"Invalid api key or secret."}}

which I think is a step in the right direction.

No those are not headers those are parameters. Header are usually denoated by the -H flag.

Try this:

require 'httparty'

query_params = {api_key: 'myKey',
                api_secret: 'secret',
                host_id: 'host',
                data_type: 'JSON'}

response = HTTParty.post("api_key&api_secret&host_id&data_type https://api.zoom.us/v1/webinar/list/registration", :query => query_params)

puts response.parsed_response
