[result, status, headers] = http_delete(url, <opt_args>)

Arguments

url

A string containing the server address following by the optional port, the route of the request and query datas. syntax: "address:port/route?queryfield=querydata"

<opt_args>

This represents a sequence of statements key1=value1, key2=value2, ... where key1, key2, ... can be one of the following:

headers

Strings defined as "name: value".

cookies

Strings defined as "name=value". This parameter is used to send custom cookies regardless of cookie preferences. Those cookies are sent in addition to stored cookies.

cert

This option determines whether Scilab verifies the authenticity of the peer's certificate. If none is given, no verification is performed.

Disabling verification of the certificate allows bad guys to man-in-the-middle the communication without you knowing it. Disabling verification makes the communication insecure. Just having encryption on a transfer is not enough as you cannot be sure that you are communicating with the correct end-point.

follow

By default, follow is false. Set follow=%t to follow eventual redirections.

auth

Username and password can be specified for the websites which required authentication.

The syntax is auth="username:password"

verbose

This option displays information in the Scilab console to diagnose potential network issues. It is disabled by default, set verbose=%t to display the in-progress log.

result

Result is a string which contains the server answer or a Scilab variable if the answer is in JSON format.

status

HTTP response code.

headers

struct: HTTP headers of the request result.

When the optional argument follow is set to %t, all headers are returned in a list that contains one struct per request made to follow redirections.
