I'm trying to emulate a curl -X GET with Go, but the server I'm contacting has authentication. I've followed several sites that recommend me to use r.Header.Add()
, but I can't get my curl call to work.
My curl call that actually returns something:
curl -X GET https://myserver.com/test/anothertest -H 'x-access-token: a1b2c3d4'
My code that doesn't return the expected JSON object:
func get(api string, headers map[string]string, dataStruct interface{}) (data interface{}, err error) {
req, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", api, nil)
for k, v := range headers {
req.Header[k] = []string{v}
}
currentHeader, _ := httputil.DumpRequestOut(req, true)
fmt.Println(string(currentHeader))
client := &http.Client{}
resp, err := client.Do(req)
if err != nil {
return
}
defer resp.Body.Close()
data = dataStruct
err = getJson(api, &data)
if err != nil {
return
}
return
}
func main() {
// args := parse_args(Options{})
args := Options{Api: "my_server",
Headers: map[string]string{
"x-access-token": "a1b2c3d4"}}
body, _ := get(args.Api, args.Headers, HistoryDecoder{})
fmt.Println(body)
}
Returns:
GET /v1pre3/users/current HTTP/1.1
Host: my_server
User-Agent: Go-http-client/1.1
X-Access-Token: a1b2c3d4
Accept-Encoding: gzip
map[ResponseStatus:map[Message:Please ensure that valid credentials are being provided for this API call (This request requires authentication but none were provided)] Notifications:[map[Type:error Item:Please ensure that valid credentials are being provided for this API call (This request requires authentication but none were provided)]]]
Could anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
