I am looking for a little instruction on how one would process a set of
parameters being sent to it through CGI. I have a script that sends
info to another script that lives on another server. The second script
would then process the information that is passed to it through a
parameters list in a URL. It would then trigger the script to do some
things via XMLRPC. I have the portion that connects to the XMLRPC
server, but not the 1st part. I can send it a list of command line
parameters, but the spec has changed. We want to do it with just curl
and send it parameters with a URL string. Not really looking for direct
code...just some ideas on how this is done for the most part. I looked
around, but nothing really fit what I wanted...mostly form
processing...thanks!
I assume the receiving script is going to be a cgi or something like
that. It sounds like all you want to do here is construct a GET request
to send to a web server.
=====================
import urllib
options = {'optone': '1' , 'opttwo': '2' , 'optthree': '3'}
url = 'http://www.example.com/path/to/script.cgi?%s' % \
urllib.urlencode(options)
u = urllib.urlopen(url)
# Here you can read the response if needs be
response = u.read()
u.close()
=====================
That's about it.
