If you want compatibolity with 1.8.2, yes, you can not use any 1.9 specific features.

You may search for 3rd party modules that implement the 1.9 functionality you were looking for. For example, there are a few json modules here that may be a good replacement for the json functionality in 1.9.

Can you suggest me something?

I found this but it has no proper documentation and I can't get it to work for what I need:

I recommend using AmxxEasyHttp instead of AmxxCurl, it is much easier to use.

First of all, use json_decode to get a JSON handle and then use json_get_...

Maybe gRIP?

I'm getting some errors when I try the example code for http get:

===== include\easy_http.inc =====
WARNING [28]: symbol "EZH_SSL_REMOTE_CERTIFICATE_ERRO" is truncated to 31 characters
WARNING [67]: symbol "ezhttp_option_set_connect_timeo" is truncated to 31 characters
WARNING [72]: symbol "ezhttp_option_set_plugin_end_be" is truncated to 31 characters

===== plugin.sma =====
ERROR [90]: undefined symbol "fmt"

ezhttp_save_data_to_file(request_id, fmt("addons/amxmodx/response_%d.json", request_id))

If I remove this line, plugin compiles and seems to be working ok.
Are the warnings in easy_http.inc normal? Is it ok to ignore them? I'm using amx 1.8.2 .

You can replace it with native formatex(); if you need.

Was fmt(); introduces in 1.9?

Yes, it was added on February 4th, 2016 which is in the 1.9-dev branch of the code.

You can't replace it with formatex() directly, you have to create a buffer variable that you would format into with formatex() and then use that buffer variable instead of fmt(). I assume you probably know that but I figured for clarity of others who might not understand what "replacing" it requires.

formatex worked. Thanks.

So eventually I decided on using AmxxEasyHttp and I'm sending all the variables as headers in a post request to my web server.
I don't need sockets or json at all. It works perfectly. Even if I spam the server with messages (like 10 requests at the same time), AmxxEasyHttp is doing them in parallel on multiple threads.

Are you too angry to answer stupid questions? Thank you

Why are you picking on words? I think they have to use their head and look at docs

Uh . . . what?

I'm not "picking on words" (whatever that means), I'm clarifying for people who might not be as familiar with these functions already. It's not a critique of you.
