Types

type Advanced

type Advanced = class

Advanced exposes a 1:1 low-level instance of the class, undocumented, for those who know what they are doing.

type Any

type Any interface {
	gd.IsClass
	AsHTTPRequest() Instance
}

type Expanded

type Expanded [1]gdclass.HTTPRequest

func (Expanded) Request

func (self Expanded) Request(url string, custom_headers []string, method HTTPClient.Method, request_data string) error

Creates request on the underlying [HTTPClient]. If there is no configuration errors, it tries to connect using [method HTTPClient.connect_to_host] and passes parameters onto [method HTTPClient.request]. Returns [constant OK] if request is successfully created. (Does not imply that the server has responded), [constant ERR_UNCONFIGURED] if not in the tree, [constant ERR_BUSY] if still processing previous request, [constant ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER] if given string is not a valid URL format, or [constant ERR_CANT_CONNECT] if not using thread and the [HTTPClient] cannot connect to host. [b]Note:[/b] When [param method] is [constant HTTPClient.METHOD_GET], the payload sent via [param request_data] might be ignored by the server or even cause the server to reject the request (check [url=https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7231#section-4.3.1]RFC 7231 section 4.3.1[/url] for more details). As a workaround, you can send data as a query string in the URL (see [method String.uri_encode] for an example). [b]Note:[/b] It's recommended to use transport encryption (TLS) and to avoid sending sensitive information (such as login credentials) in HTTP GET URL parameters. Consider using HTTP POST requests or HTTP headers for such information instead.

func (Expanded) RequestRaw

func (self Expanded) RequestRaw(url string, custom_headers []string, method HTTPClient.Method, request_data_raw []byte) error

Creates request on the underlying [HTTPClient] using a raw array of bytes for the request body. If there is no configuration errors, it tries to connect using [method HTTPClient.connect_to_host] and passes parameters onto [method HTTPClient.request]. Returns [constant OK] if request is successfully created. (Does not imply that the server has responded), [constant ERR_UNCONFIGURED] if not in the tree, [constant ERR_BUSY] if still processing previous request, [constant ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER] if given string is not a valid URL format, or [constant ERR_CANT_CONNECT] if not using thread and the [HTTPClient] cannot connect to host.

type Extension

type Extension[T gdclass.Interface] struct{ gdclass.Extension[T, Instance] }

Extension can be embedded in a new struct to create an extension of this class. T should be the type that is embedding this Extension

func (*Extension[T]) AsHTTPRequest

func (self *Extension[T]) AsHTTPRequest() Instance

func (*Extension[T]) AsNode

func (self *Extension[T]) AsNode() Node.Instance

func (*Extension[T]) AsObject

func (self *Extension[T]) AsObject() [1]gd.Object

type ID

type ID Object.ID

ID is a typed object ID (reference) to an instance of this class, use it to store references to objects with unknown lifetimes, as an ID will not panic on use if the underlying object has been destroyed.

func (ID) Instance

func (id ID) Instance() (Instance, bool)

type Instance

type Instance [1]gdclass.HTTPRequest

A node with the ability to send HTTP requests. Uses [HTTPClient] internally. Can be used to make HTTP requests, i.e. download or upload files or web content via HTTP. [b]Warning:[/b] See the notes and warnings on [HTTPClient] for limitations, especially regarding TLS security. [b]Note:[/b] When exporting to Android, make sure to enable the [code]INTERNET[/code] permission in the Android export preset before exporting the project or using one-click deploy. Otherwise, network communication of any kind will be blocked by Android. [b]Example:[/b] Contact a REST API and print one of its returned fields: [codeblocks] [gdscript] func _ready():

# Create an HTTP request node and connect its completion signal.
var http_request = HTTPRequest.new()
add_child(http_request)
http_request.request_completed.connect(self._http_request_completed)

# Perform a GET request. The URL below returns JSON as of writing.
var error = http_request.request("https://httpbin.org/get")
if error != OK:
    push_error("An error occurred in the HTTP request.")

# Perform a POST request. The URL below returns JSON as of writing.
# Note: Don't make simultaneous requests using a single HTTPRequest node.
# The snippet below is provided for reference only.
var body = JSON.new().stringify({"name": "Godette"})
error = http_request.request("https://httpbin.org/post", [], HTTPClient.METHOD_POST, body)
if error != OK:
    push_error("An error occurred in the HTTP request.")

# Called when the HTTP request is completed. func _http_request_completed(result, response_code, headers, body):

var json = JSON.new()
json.parse(body.get_string_from_utf8())
var response = json.get_data()

# Will print the user agent string used by the HTTPRequest node (as recognized by httpbin.org).
print(response.headers["User-Agent"])

[/gdscript] [csharp] public override void _Ready()

{
    // Create an HTTP request node and connect its completion signal.
    var httpRequest = new HttpRequest();
    AddChild(httpRequest);
    httpRequest.RequestCompleted += HttpRequestCompleted;

    // Perform a GET request. The URL below returns JSON as of writing.
    Error error = httpRequest.Request("https://httpbin.org/get");
    if (error != Error.Ok)
    {
        GD.PushError("An error occurred in the HTTP request.");
    }

    // Perform a POST request. The URL below returns JSON as of writing.
    // Note: Don't make simultaneous requests using a single HTTPRequest node.
    // The snippet below is provided for reference only.
    string body = new Json().Stringify(new Godot.Collections.Dictionary
    {
        { "name", "Godette" }
    });
    error = httpRequest.Request("https://httpbin.org/post", null, HttpClient.Method.Post, body);
    if (error != Error.Ok)
    {
        GD.PushError("An error occurred in the HTTP request.");
    }
}

// Called when the HTTP request is completed. private void HttpRequestCompleted(long result, long responseCode, string[] headers, byte[] body)

{
    var json = new Json();
    json.Parse(body.GetStringFromUtf8());
    var response = json.GetData().AsGodotDictionary();

    // Will print the user agent string used by the HTTPRequest node (as recognized by httpbin.org).
    GD.Print((response["headers"].AsGodotDictionary())["User-Agent"]);
}

[/csharp] [/codeblocks] [b]Example:[/b] Load an image using [HTTPRequest] and display it: [codeblocks] [gdscript] func _ready():

# Create an HTTP request node and connect its completion signal.
var http_request = HTTPRequest.new()
add_child(http_request)
http_request.request_completed.connect(self._http_request_completed)

# Perform the HTTP request. The URL below returns a PNG image as of writing.
var error = http_request.request("https://placehold.co/512")
if error != OK:
    push_error("An error occurred in the HTTP request.")

# Called when the HTTP request is completed. func _http_request_completed(result, response_code, headers, body):

if result != HTTPRequest.RESULT_SUCCESS:
    push_error("Image couldn't be downloaded. Try a different image.")

var image = Image.new()
var error = image.load_png_from_buffer(body)
if error != OK:
    push_error("Couldn't load the image.")

var texture = ImageTexture.create_from_image(image)

# Display the image in a TextureRect node.
var texture_rect = TextureRect.new()
add_child(texture_rect)
texture_rect.texture = texture

[/gdscript] [csharp] public override void _Ready()

{
    // Create an HTTP request node and connect its completion signal.
    var httpRequest = new HttpRequest();
    AddChild(httpRequest);
    httpRequest.RequestCompleted += HttpRequestCompleted;

    // Perform the HTTP request. The URL below returns a PNG image as of writing.
    Error error = httpRequest.Request("https://placehold.co/512");
    if (error != Error.Ok)
    {
        GD.PushError("An error occurred in the HTTP request.");
    }
}

// Called when the HTTP request is completed. private void HttpRequestCompleted(long result, long responseCode, string[] headers, byte[] body)

{
    if (result != (long)HttpRequest.Result.Success)
    {
        GD.PushError("Image couldn't be downloaded. Try a different image.");
    }
    var image = new Image();
    Error error = image.LoadPngFromBuffer(body);
    if (error != Error.Ok)
    {
        GD.PushError("Couldn't load the image.");
    }

    var texture = ImageTexture.CreateFromImage(image);

    // Display the image in a TextureRect node.
    var textureRect = new TextureRect();
    AddChild(textureRect);
    textureRect.Texture = texture;
}

[/csharp] [/codeblocks] [b]Note:[/b] [HTTPRequest] nodes will automatically handle decompression of response bodies. A [code]Accept-Encoding[/code] header will be automatically added to each of your requests, unless one is already specified. Any response with a [code]Content-Encoding: gzip[/code] header will automatically be decompressed and delivered to you as uncompressed bytes.
