有什么方法可以简单地用c++发出HTTP请求吗?具体来说,我想下载一个页面(一个API)的内容,并检查内容,看看它是否包含1或0。是否也可以将内容下载到字符串中?


当前回答

你可以使用embeddedRest库。它是一个轻量级的头文件库。所以很容易将它包含到你的项目中,它不需要编译,因为里面没有。cpp文件。

从自述文件中请求示例。Md from repo:

#include "UrlRequest.hpp"

//...

UrlRequest request;
request.host("api.vk.com");
const auto countryId = 1;
const auto count = 1000;
request.uri("/method/database.getCities",{
    { "lang", "ru" },
    { "country_id", countryId },
    { "count", count },
    { "need_all", "1" },
});
request.addHeader("Content-Type: application/json");
auto response = std::move(request.perform());
if (response.statusCode() == 200) {
  cout << "status code = " << response.statusCode() << ", body = *" << response.body() << "*" << endl;
}else{
  cout << "status code = " << response.statusCode() << ", description = " << response.statusDescription() << endl;
}

对于这个答案,我参考了Software_Developer的答案。通过重新构建代码,我发现一些部分已弃用(gethostbyname())或不为操作提供错误处理(创建套接字,发送一些东西)。

下面的windows代码是用Visual Studio 2013和windows 8.1 64位以及windows 7 64位进行测试的。它将目标与www.google.com的Web服务器的IPv4 TCP连接。

#include <winsock2.h>
#include <WS2tcpip.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>
#pragma comment(lib,"ws2_32.lib")
using namespace std;
    int main (){
    // Initialize Dependencies to the Windows Socket.
    WSADATA wsaData;
    if (WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(2,2), &wsaData) != 0) {
        cout << "WSAStartup failed.\n";
        system("pause");
        return -1;
    }

    // We first prepare some "hints" for the "getaddrinfo" function
    // to tell it, that we are looking for a IPv4 TCP Connection.
    struct addrinfo hints;
    ZeroMemory(&hints, sizeof(hints));
    hints.ai_family = AF_INET;          // We are targeting IPv4
    hints.ai_protocol = IPPROTO_TCP;    // We are targeting TCP
    hints.ai_socktype = SOCK_STREAM;    // We are targeting TCP so its SOCK_STREAM

    // Aquiring of the IPv4 address of a host using the newer
    // "getaddrinfo" function which outdated "gethostbyname".
    // It will search for IPv4 addresses using the TCP-Protocol.
    struct addrinfo* targetAdressInfo = NULL;
    DWORD getAddrRes = getaddrinfo("www.google.com", NULL, &hints, &targetAdressInfo);
    if (getAddrRes != 0 || targetAdressInfo == NULL)
    {
        cout << "Could not resolve the Host Name" << endl;
        system("pause");
        WSACleanup();
        return -1;
    }

    // Create the Socket Address Informations, using IPv4
    // We dont have to take care of sin_zero, it is only used to extend the length of SOCKADDR_IN to the size of SOCKADDR
    SOCKADDR_IN sockAddr;
    sockAddr.sin_addr = ((struct sockaddr_in*) targetAdressInfo->ai_addr)->sin_addr;    // The IPv4 Address from the Address Resolution Result
    sockAddr.sin_family = AF_INET;  // IPv4
    sockAddr.sin_port = htons(80);  // HTTP Port: 80

    // We have to free the Address-Information from getaddrinfo again
    freeaddrinfo(targetAdressInfo);

    // Creation of a socket for the communication with the Web Server,
    // using IPv4 and the TCP-Protocol
    SOCKET webSocket = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP);
    if (webSocket == INVALID_SOCKET)
    {
        cout << "Creation of the Socket Failed" << endl;
        system("pause");
        WSACleanup();
        return -1;
    }

    // Establishing a connection to the web Socket
    cout << "Connecting...\n";
    if(connect(webSocket, (SOCKADDR*)&sockAddr, sizeof(sockAddr)) != 0)
    {
        cout << "Could not connect";
        system("pause");
        closesocket(webSocket);
        WSACleanup();
        return -1;
    }
    cout << "Connected.\n";

    // Sending a HTTP-GET-Request to the Web Server
    const char* httpRequest = "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: www.google.com\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n";
    int sentBytes = send(webSocket, httpRequest, strlen(httpRequest),0);
    if (sentBytes < strlen(httpRequest) || sentBytes == SOCKET_ERROR)
    {
        cout << "Could not send the request to the Server" << endl;
        system("pause");
        closesocket(webSocket);
        WSACleanup();
        return -1;
    }

    // Receiving and Displaying an answer from the Web Server
    char buffer[10000];
    ZeroMemory(buffer, sizeof(buffer));
    int dataLen;
    while ((dataLen = recv(webSocket, buffer, sizeof(buffer), 0) > 0))
    {
        int i = 0;
        while (buffer[i] >= 32 || buffer[i] == '\n' || buffer[i] == '\r') {
            cout << buffer[i];
            i += 1;
        }
    }

    // Cleaning up Windows Socket Dependencies
    closesocket(webSocket);
    WSACleanup();

    system("pause");
    return 0;
}

虽然有点晚了。你可能更喜欢https://github.com/Taymindis/backcurl。

它允许你在移动c++开发上进行http调用。适合手机游戏开发

bcl::init(); // init when using

bcl::execute<std::string>([&](bcl::Request *req) {
    bcl::setOpts(req, CURLOPT_URL , "http://www.google.com",
             CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1L,

}, [&](bcl::Response * resp) {
    std::string ret =  std::string(resp->getBody<std::string>()->c_str());

有什么方法可以简单地用c++发出HTTP请求吗?具体来说,我想下载一个页面(一个API)的内容,并检查内容,看看它是否包含1或0。是否也可以将内容下载到字符串中?

首先……我知道这个问题已经有12年了。然而。没有一个答案给出的例子是“简单的”,不需要构建一些外部库

下面是我能想到的检索和打印网页内容的最简单的解决方案。

#include <iostream>

#include <WinSock2.h>
#include <wininet.h>
#pragma comment(lib, "wininet.lib")

int main()
{
    //  ESTABLISH SOME LOOSE VARIABLES
    const int size = 4096;
    char buf[size];
    DWORD length;

    //  ESTABLISH CONNECTION TO THE INTERNET
    HINTERNET internet = InternetOpenA("Mozilla/5.0", INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_DIRECT, NULL, NULL, NULL);
    if (!internet)
        ExitProcess(EXIT_FAILURE);  //  Failed to establish connection to internet, Exit

    //  ATTEMPT TO CONNECT TO WEBSITE "google.com"
    HINTERNET response = InternetOpenUrlA(internet, "http://www.google.com", NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);
    if (!response) {
        //  CONNECTION TO "google.com" FAILED
        InternetCloseHandle(internet);  //  Close handle to internet
        ExitProcess(EXIT_FAILURE);
    }

    //  READ CONTENTS OF WEBPAGE IN HTML FORMAT
    if (!InternetReadFile(response, buf, size, &length)) {     
        //  FAILED TO READ CONTENTS OF WEBPAGE
        //  Close handles and Exit
        InternetCloseHandle(response);                      //  Close handle to response
        InternetCloseHandle(internet);                      //  Close handle to internet
        ExitProcess(EXIT_FAILURE);
    }
    
    //  CLOSE HANDLES AND OUTPUT CONTENTS OF WEBPAGE
    InternetCloseHandle(response);                      //  Close handle to response
    InternetCloseHandle(internet);                      //  Close handle to internet
    std::cout << buf << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

注意,这并不需要libcurl, Windows.h,或WinSock!没有编译库,没有项目配置,等等。我有这段代码在Windows 10上的Visual Studio 2017 c++中工作:

#pragma comment(lib, "urlmon.lib")

#include <urlmon.h>
#include <sstream>

using namespace std;

...

IStream* stream;
//Also works with https URL's - unsure about the extent of SSL support though.
HRESULT result = URLOpenBlockingStream(0, "http://google.com", &stream, 0, 0);
if (result != 0)
{
    return 1;
}
char buffer[100];
unsigned long bytesRead;
stringstream ss;
stream->Read(buffer, 100, &bytesRead);
while (bytesRead > 0U)
{
    ss.write(buffer, (long long)bytesRead);
    stream->Read(buffer, 100, &bytesRead);
}
stream->Release();
string resultString = ss.str();

我只是想出了如何做到这一点,因为我想要一个简单的API访问脚本,像libcurl这样的库给我带来了各种各样的问题(即使我遵循了说明……),而WinSock只是太低级和复杂了。

我不太确定所有的IStream读取代码(特别是while条件-请随意纠正/改进),但嘿,它工作,麻烦!(这对我来说是有意义的,因为我使用了一个阻塞(同步)调用,这是很好的,bytesRead将始终是> 0U,直到流(ISequentialStream?)完成读取,但谁知道呢。)

如果您正在寻找在多个平台(Linux, Windows和Mac)支持的c++中的HTTP客户端库,以使用Restful web服务。您可以有以下选项。
