Hey!
1. Did try latest gnoga on git repo and its works perfect. Sorry for the
delayed confirmation.
2. For further references, I take this opportunity to share some infos
regarding a server connection as an https-client:
- You can find some basic flow/test code under
gnoga/deps/simple_components/test_components/test_https_client.adb
- For whaterver reasons, my GPS kept freezing to death when ever I did not
have all the file dependencies properly added to my project; file being
test_https_client.adb. e.g: with GNUTLS; and any code trying to reference
it would just freeze GPS for eternity. One thing that worked was to disable
Smart Completion in the GPS preferences.
- I am using this https-client connection to order mails at mailgun.
Mailgun has good example code to properly make use of their REST api for
sending emails. One thing that made me struggled a lot was to properly add
my credentials in the https request header. I had to trace with curl to
find what was expected from mail gun. Here I explain the catch: (You should
understand if ever you have to use their api)
Mailgun gives you a secret api key that you have to set in the header of
your https POST request. In all their example, they use mainstream
languages OO facilities to set the authentication parameter of an http
request e.g in Python:
def send_simple_message():
return requests.post(
"https://api.mailgun.net/v3/YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME/messages";,
auth=("api", "YOUR_API_KEY"),
data={"from": "Excited User <mailgun@YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME>",
"to": ["b...@example.com", "YOU@YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME"],
"subject": "Hello",
"text": "Testing some Mailgun awesomness!"})
I did not find such utility in gnoga or the simple components api. I
managed to build it myself and it does the trick. Here is the code snippet:
...
Client : HTTP_Session_Signaled renames HTTP_Session_Signaled (Ptr
(Reference).all);
begin
Connect (Client, "api.mailgun.net", 443);
Client.Set_Request_Header (Header => Authorization_Header,
Value => "Basic " &
To_Base64("api:key-blablabla...blabla"));
...
Hope it can help someone some day.
Ciao :)
