Function

ARSubmitGet(url, destfile, parameters, options)

send an HTTP GET request

url - string web URL of the request

destfile - string file in which to save results of the HTTP request

parameters - table table of key-value parameters to include with the request

options - table table of additional options accepted by ARDownloadFile

Code

This convenience function for HTTP GET requests allows you to supply the request parameters as a table of key-value pairs. It calls ARDownloadParamString to urlencode and concatenate the parameters and then appends them to the URL before sending the request via ARDownloadFile.

function ARSubmitGet(url, dest, params, options)
   if not options then
      options = {};
   end
   params = ARDownloadParamString(params);
   ARDownloadFile(url.."?"..params,dest,options);
end
