Currently, I am working on developing a function for firebase that will trigger a POST request to call a specific URL. While I have successfully implemented GET requests, tackling the POST method has proven to be more challenging.
I have some sample code utilizing fetch for making the call, but I am unsure about how to properly structure the parameters in the following snippet:
<?php
$url = 'https://profootballapi.com/schedule';
$api_key = '__YOUR__API__KEY__';
$query_string = 'api_key='.$api_key.'&year=2014&week=7&season_type=REG';
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $query_string);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo $result;
?>
My sample code takes the form of a POST request and here is what it looks like:
const apiKey = "myAPIkey";
const url = "https://profootballapi.com/schedule";
const response = await fetch(url, {
method: 'POST',
body: 'api_key'= apiKey, '&year=2018&week=7&season_typeRG';
headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8'}});
if (!response.ok) {/* Handle */}
// If you care about a response:
if (response.body !== null) {
functions.logger.log(response.body);
}
