如何使用 Julia lang HTTP 库将 POST 请求发送到 Django RESTFUL API (DRF)

Question

There is very limited documentation when it comes to the HTTP library in Julia Lang. Not just that, but there are no up to date Stack Overflow questions regarding the HTTP library in general.

With that said, how do you send POST requests using Julia + HTTP to a Django Restful API (DRF)?

Answer 1

Julia 1.7, 1.8

If you are sending json formatted data (simple Django POST request):

begin

using JSON
using HTTP

const url = "http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/profile"
payload = Dict("email" => "email@email.com", "password" => "12345password")

response = HTTP.request(
        "POST", url, ["Content-Type" => "application/json"], JSON.json(payload))

# this is necessary, JULIA discontinued python style Dictionaries
response = JSON.parse(String(response.body))
println(response)


end

If you are sending header information like Authentication tokens, etc.

begin

using JSON
using HTTP

const url = "http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/profile"
payload = Dict("email" => "email@email.com", "password" => "12345password")
access_token = "some access token"

headers = Dict(
        "Content-Type" => "application/json",
        "Authorization" => "Bearer $access_token")

response = HTTP.request(
        "POST", url, headers, JSON.json(payload))

# this is necessary, JULIA discontinued python style Dictionaries
response = JSON.parse(String(response.body))
println(response)


end
