RESTful POST requests with LwIP with Nucleo F429ZI

[carlosdelfino]

Hi All,
Dears.

I am studying how to make http requests with Nucleo-F429ZI. I have already had success with the web server example (HTTP Server), but now I need to make requests on another server, where a number of endpoints will be available. The difficulty I am having is that all the examples I found use the GET method, and I need to make some requests with the POST method. Is this possible?

Could you recommend some reading material with examples?

Hi,

the two following references are not HTTP tutorials, but embedded implementation that may be helpful:

 

X-CUBE-CLD-GEN STM32Cube Expansion Package contains application examples which connect to cloud platforms over REST requests.It is based on FreeRTOS kernel and LwIP TCP/IP stack.

The Groovestreams example uses PUT requests.

The Exosite example uses POST requests.

 

For new developments, a maintained embedded library such as coreHTTP could be considered.
