HackerRank Native HTTP Request
Hello Developers.
I just did a test on HackerRank for a company which need me to do a GET request to an API:
“https://jsonmock.hackerrank.com/api/articles?author=epaga&page=1”
But not client code example was provided.
I assumed then that I should use something native from erlang like:
Application.ensure_all_started(:inets)
Application.ensure_all_started(:ssl)
httpc.request(:get, {https://jsonmock.hackerrank.com/api/articles?author=epaga&page=1', []}, [], [])
But then I received another http:port_request/1 error.
(There was no way of adding external libraries)
How would you have solved this?
Best Regards

I don’t know about your error, but the correct answer would be something like:
Application.ensure_all_started(:inets)
Application.ensure_all_started(:ssl)
:httpc.request(:get, {'https://jsonmock.hackerrank.com/api/articles?author=epaga&page=1', []}, [
ssl: [
verify: :verify_peer,
cacertfile: '/etc/ssl/cert.pem',
depth: 3,
customize_hostname_check: [
match_fun: :public_key.pkix_verify_hostname_match_fun(:https)
]
]
], [])
