Golang : Set or Add HTTP Request Headers
Problem :
While coding the tutorial on how to interface with PayPal, I need to add header value for Content-Type before posting to PayPal. How to Set or Add HTTP Request Headers?
Solution :
Header (http://golang.org/pkg/net/http/#Header) has Add() and Set() methods.
Example 1:
req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "http://example.com", nil)
req.Header.Set("name", "value")
Example 2:
// post data back to PayPal
client := &http.Client{}
req, err := http.NewRequest("POST", postStr, nil)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}
req.Header.Add("Content-Type: ", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
resp, err := client.Do(req)
