HTTP Requests

HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is essential for data communication on the web. Below are examples of making HTTP requests in various programming languages.

Python

Using the requests library:

import requests
 
response = requests.get('https://api.example.com/data')
print(response.text)

JavaScript

Using the fetch API:

fetch("https://api.example.com/data")
  .then((response) => response.text())
  .then((data) => console.log(data));

Using the axios library:

const axios = require('axios');

axios.get('https://api.example.com/data')
  .then(response => console.log(response.data));

Go

Using the net/http package:

package main
 
import (
  "fmt"
  "io/ioutil"
  "net/http"
)
 
func main() {
  response, err := http.Get("https://api.example.com/data")
  if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
  }
  defer response.Body.Close()
  body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(response.Body)
  if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
  }
  fmt.Println(string(body))
}

C/C++

Using the libcurl library:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <curl/curl.h>
 
int main() {
  CURL *curl;
  CURLcode res;
 
  curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://api.example.com/data");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    if(res != CURLE_OK)
      fprintf(stderr, "curl_easy_perform() failed: %s\n", curl_easy_strerror(res));
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
  return 0;
}
