HTTP Post request with auth header

[sty...@gmail.com]

Hey guys,

I can't seem to figure out how to create a http post request with basic auth.

I figured out the following:

Create a new request with 

client := &http.Client{}

req := http.NewRequest("POST", "URL", nil)

req.SetBasicAuth('u', 'p')

client.Do(req)

Problem with this is I have no clue as to how to set the post data.

With the following example I don't know how to set the auth header:

client.PostForm("URL", url.Values{ ... values ...})

Help is much appreciated! :)

Cheers,

Jeff

The 3rd parameter for http.NewRequest is the body.

I think it's possible to simply use the PostForm method with a url like "http://user:pa...@example.com" (but I haven't tried it). Anyway, if you want to create a request object on your own, you can do so:

data := url.Values{ ... values ... }

req := http.NewRequest("POST", "URL", strings.NewReader(data.Encode()))

req.Header.Set("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")

req.SetBasicAuth('u', 'p')

client.Do(req)

Regards,

Christoph
