How to post data in a url
how do i post data to a url with its parameters eg
www.sendmessage.com/client/xml/send?client&pass&message&phone
i want to pick the fields client, pass, message and phone from the db and pass them to a function like
def send_msg(entry) do
{:ok, url} ->
options = [
hackney: [basic_auth: {url.client, url.pass}],
ssl: [verify: :verify_none]]
{:ok, post_params} = prepare_request_params(entry, url)
case HTTPoison.post(String.trim(url.url), post_params, headers, options) do
{:ok, %HTTPoison.Response{status_code: 200, body: body}} ->
IO.inspect(process_response_body(body))
end
end
def prepare_request_params(entry, url) do
{:ok,Poison.encode!(%{
"username" => "#{url.client}",
"password" => "#{url.pass}",
"recipient" => ["#{entry.phone}"],
"message" => "#{entry.message}"
})}
end

Aside: this is a very strange construction. Don’t use the ! version of Poison.encode if you want an :ok tuple as a return value. Just take away the ! and you’ll get an :ok tuple. (Also, Poison is an old library not much used for new code these days).
