6670 :: HTTPS requests in Nim

• lum (orginal) [2020-08-12T11:51:05+02:00] view original

  Hi. I was looking for the library for HTTPS requests(like requests in Python).

  I found standart httpClient. But when I did request to https://github.com/ and compile my programm with -d:ssl I caught this error:

   not load: (libcrypto-1_1-x64|libeay64).dll
  Run

  Code:

  import httpClient
  
  var client = newHttpClient()
  echo client.getContent("https://github.com")
  
  Run

  Do you know, how to fix it? Or do you know some other Nim libraries for HTTPS requests?

  OS: Windows 10

  Guys,

  I've got the same problem in GNU/Linux.

  Hint: 88119 LOC; 12.865 sec; 89.07MiB peakmem; Debug build; proj: /home/seba/Pobrane/netw.nim; out: /home/seba/Pobrane/netw [SuccessX] Hint: /home/seba/Pobrane/netw [Exec] could not load: libcrypto.so(.1.1|.1.0.2|.1.0.1|.1.0.0|.0.9.9|.0.9.8|.47|.46|.45|.44|.43|.41|.39|.38|.10|) compile with -d:nimDebugDlOpen for more information Error: execution of an external program failed: '/home/seba/Pobrane/netw '

  It looks like libcrypto is present:

  [seba@sebapc ~]$ ls -l /usr/lib | grep libcrypto lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 05-24 21:14 libcrypto.so -> libcrypto.so.1.1

  -r-xr-xr-x

  1 root root 2828704 2020-01-25 libcrypto.so.1.0.0

  -rwxr-xr-x

  1 root root 2982648 05-24 21:14 libcrypto.so.1.1

  Tried with nim from choosenim and the result isthe same. Bashrc files contains nimble and nim added to path.

  Maybe openssl should be in devel version?

  Just guessing, but it could also be an 32/64 bit mismatch.
