a complete C rest client demo project

project structure

  • base64.c/base64.h: a util for base64.encode/decode

  • main.c: call the rest api for IoTDB

How to build

dependency: libcurl

  • example: Ubuntu 16.04 STL (Ubuntu 20.04 may have some problems)
shell
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

Before build, you must install the libcurl.

build steps:

shell
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Eventually, you will get an executable program c_rest_iotdb in build directory.

cross compilation

  • os : Ubuntu 16.04 STL
  1. choose and install cross compiler according to the target host

arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc as an example.

  • arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc
shell
sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf
  1. cross compile libcurl
shell
./configure --host=arm-linux/arm-linux-gnueabihf/others CC=arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc --prefix=`install dir` --enable-static --with-wolfssl
make
make install
  1. cross compile the example program
shell
arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc main.c base64.c -o c_rest -L `(libcurl install dir)/lib/` -l curl

if can't find curl/curl.h, you can just simply change to the absolutely path or specify the include path.
