Use Case

Below is a sample use case for HttpRequester, it is written in Lua script but comments should allow anyone unfamiliar to follow along.

JSON = (loadfile "JSON.lua")()

-- Command line args for HttpRequester.
local args = "\"{'Url':'http://www.google.co.uk','HttpMethod':'GET'}\""

-- Start HttpRequester and read all output
local httpRequester = io.popen("HttpRequester.exe " .. args)
local responseObj = ""

for line in httpRequester:lines() do
    responseObj = responseObj .. line
end

-- Decode JSON response object.
local responseObj = JSON:decode(responseObj)

-- Check for error then print response body to html file.
if responseObj.Error == nil then
    local file = assert(io.open("google.html", "w"))
    file:write(responseObj.ResponseBody)
    file:close()
end

I used to process standard output re-director here but you could just as easily do 'HttpRequester "..." > someTempFile.temp', then read the file contents and delete it.

An aside here is that I use a JSON library for Lua, http://regex.info/blog/lua/json, but you do not require a JSON library to use this tool, one could parse the output manually using any standard string library.
