Objective-C Example

#import <CkoRest.h>
#import <NSString.h>
#import <CkoJsonObject.h>

CkoRest *rest = [[CkoRest alloc] init];
BOOL success;

//  URL: https://api.stripe.com/v1/tokens
BOOL bTls = YES;
int port = 443;
BOOL bAutoReconnect = YES;
success = [rest Connect: @"api.stripe.com" port: [NSNumber numberWithInt: port] tls: bTls autoReconnect: bAutoReconnect];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@%d",@"ConnectFailReason: ",[rest.ConnectFailReason intValue]);
    NSLog(@"%@",rest.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

[rest SetAuthBasic: @"STRIPE_SECRET_KEY" password: @""];

[rest AddQueryParam: @"pii[personal_id_number]" value: @"000000000"];

NSString *strResponseBody = [rest FullRequestFormUrlEncoded: @"POST" uriPath: @"/v1/tokens"];
if (rest.LastMethodSuccess != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",rest.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

CkoJsonObject *jsonResponse = [[CkoJsonObject alloc] init];
[jsonResponse Load: strResponseBody];

NSString *id = 0;
NSString *object = 0;
BOOL client_ip;
int created;
BOOL livemode;
NSString *type = 0;
BOOL used;

id = [jsonResponse StringOf: @"id"];

created = [[jsonResponse IntOf: @"created"] intValue];
livemode = [jsonResponse BoolOf: @"livemode"];
type = [jsonResponse StringOf: @"type"];
