make_http_request

Execute HTTP request matching given path and yield JSON result object. Depending on type it could be:

- HttpType.VIEW

The client should setup view_complete callback in order to fetch

the result. Also he can setup view_data callback to fetch response

body in chunks as soon as possible, it will be called each time the

library receive a data chunk from socket. The empty <tt>bytes</tt>

argument (NULL pointer and zero size) is the sign of end of

response. Chunked callback allows to save memory on large datasets.

- HttpType.MANAGEMENT

Management requests allow you to configure the cluster, add/remove

buckets, rebalance etc. The result will be passed to management

callbacks (data/complete).

Example: Fetch first 10 docs from '_design/test/_view/all' view

  HttpRequest req = HttpRequest();
  HttpCommand cmd = HttpCommand() {
      path = "_design/test/_view/all?limit=10",
      body = null,
      method = HttpMethod.GET,
      chunked = 1,
      content_type = "application/json"
  };
  StatusResponse response = instance.make_http_request(
      null, HttpType.VIEW, &cmd, &req
  );

Example: The same as above but with POST filter

  HttpRequest req = HttpRequest();
  HttpCommand cmd = HttpCommand() {
      path = "_design/test/_view/all?limit=10".data,
      body = """{"keys": ["test_1000", "test_10002"]}""".data,
      method = HttpMethod.POST,
      chunked = 0,
      content_type = "application/json"
  };
  StatusResponse response = instance.make_http_request(
      null, HttpType.VIEW, ref cmd, ref req
  );

Example: Delete bucket via REST management API

  HttpRequest req = HttpRequest();
  HttpCommand cmd = HttpCommand() {
      path = query.data,
      body = null,
      method = HttpMethod.DELETE,
      chunked = 0,
      content_type = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
  };
  StatusResponse response = instance.make_http_request(
      null, HttpType.MANAGEMENT, ref cmd, ref req
  );

command_cookie	A cookie passed to all of the notifications from this command
