Hello, as the title says, can someone write a example script with REST in Pawn to send a POST reqeust, the script should send something like this:

http://example.com/myfile.php?steamid={STEAMID}&points={points}

in sourcemod example:
...("http://example.com/myfile.php?steamid=%s&points=%i", steamid, points);
or how ever...

thanks.

http://example.com/myfile.php?steamid={STEAMID}&points={points} is a GET request, not a POST. And if all you are doing is sending a GET request to a web server, you don't need a JSON API.

how can i do this without a extension?

You can't do this without extensions. SourceMod doesn't provide for plugins any API for working with network (sockets) or web-sites (HTTP).

I just edited the example that came with the Connect extension:

// example for the socket extension

#include <sourcemod>
#include <socket>

public Plugin:myinfo = {
name = "socket example",
author = "",
description = "",
version = "",
url = ""
};

public OnPluginStart() {
// create a new tcp socket
new Handle:socket = SocketCreate(SOCKET_TCP, OnSocketError);

// connect the socket
SocketConnect(socket, OnSocketConnected, OnSocketReceive, OnSocketDisconnected, "example.com", 80)
}

public OnSocketConnected(Handle:socket, any:arg) {
// socket is connected, send the http request

new String:requestStr[100];
new points = 0;
new String:steamid[256];
Format(steamid, sizeof(steamid), "1234567890");

Format(requestStr, sizeof(requestStr), "GET /myfile.php?steamid=%s&points=%d HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: example.com\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n", steamid, points);
SocketSend(socket, requestStr);
}

public OnSocketReceive(Handle:socket, String:receiveData[], const dataSize, any:hFile) {

}

public OnSocketDisconnected(Handle:socket, any:hFile) {
// Connection: close advises the webserver to close the connection when the transfer is finished
// we're done here

CloseHandle(socket);
}

public OnSocketError(Handle:socket, const errorType, const errorNum, any:hFile) {
// a socket error occured

LogError("socket error %d (errno %d)", errorType, errorNum);
CloseHandle(socket);
}

Curious but why use socket if you're using it similar to other http extensions and just opening and closing the connection?
