Magento 2 - Curl Method coding standard?

Question

I am calling third party API using below methods:

$ch = curl_init();
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $this->_url . 'api/v1/ShipTos');
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data_string);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array("Content-Type: application/json", "Authorization: Bearer $session", "Content-Length: " . strlen($data_string)));

        $out = curl_exec($ch);

How to call curl method in Magento 2 with example please?

Answer 1

 protected $curlClient;  

in construct add this

  public function __construct(     
        \Magento\Framework\HTTP\Client\Curl $curl

    ) {
        $this->curlClient = $curl;
    }

You can use this like

$this->curlClient->post($serviceUrl, []);
//response will contain the output in form of JSON string
$response = $this->curlClient->getBody();

For more option you can see this file, vendor\magento\framework\HTTP\Client\Curl.php

like

getBody()

addHeader()

setCredentials()

addCookie()

get() // for get request

makeRequest() // for make request

setOption() // set curl options
