Golang使用数据发出GET请求

Question

Is it possible to do a GET request with data such as:

curl -G -v https://someendpoint \
  -d "api_key=myapikey"

Which works. In Golang I tried:

payload := url.Values{}
payload.Add("api_key", "myapikey")
req, err := http.NewRequest(
    "GET",
    "https://someendpoint",
    bytes.NewBufferString(payload.Encode()),
)

But the api key is not being recognised.

Answer 1

The curl command passes the API key to the server in the URL query string. Here's how to do the same in Go:

payload := url.Values{}
payload.Add("api_key", "myapikey")
req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "https://someendpoint?" + payload.Encode(), nil)
