Send a GET request to obtain the resource located at the URL "https://www.w3.org/", then print it to the console.
Checking the host certificate for validity is recommended.
Do not authenticate. That is the subject of other tasks.
Readers may wish to contrast with the HTTP Request task, and also the task on HTTPS request with authentication.

Task
HTTPS
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Task

Ada

Library: AWS

Exactly the same as the HTTP task, assuming you compiled AWS with openssl support.

with AWS.Client;
with AWS.Response;
with Ada.Text_IO; use Ada.Text_IO;
procedure GetHttps is
begin
   Put_Line (AWS.Response.Message_Body (AWS.Client.Get (
      URL => "https://sourceforge.net/")));
end GetHttps;

C#

Works with: C sharp version 3.0
using System;
using System.Net;

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var client = new WebClient();
        var data = client.DownloadString("https://www.google.com");

        Console.WriteLine(data);
    }
}

This does not work for urls requiring a secure (SSL) connection.

Clojure

Using the duck-streams as a convenient wrapper for Java's networking classes, grabbing the contents of an HTTPS URL is as easy as:

(use '[clojure.contrib.duck-streams :only (slurp*)])
(print (slurp* "https://sourceforge.net"))

The usual Java mechanisms can be used to manage acceptance of SSL certificates if required.

Works with: Clojure version 1.2
(print (slurp "https://sourceforge.net"))

D

Using curl

import std.stdio;
import std.net.curl;
auto data = get("https://sourceforge.net");
writeln(data);

Common Lisp

Library: DRAKMA

First grabbing the entire body as a string, and then by pulling from a stream. This is the same code as in HTTP Request; drakma:http-request supports SSL.

(defun wget-drakma-string (url &optional (out *standard-output*))
  "Grab the body as a string, and write it to out."
  (write-string (drakma:http-request url) out))
 
(defun wget-drakma-stream (url &optional (out *standard-output*))
  "Grab the body as a stream, and write it to out."
  (loop with body = (drakma:http-request url :want-stream t)
        for line = (read-line body nil nil)
        while line do (write-line line)
        finally (close body)))

;; Use
(wget-drakma-stream "https://sourceforge.net")
Library: Dexador
(format t "~a~%" (nth-value 0 (dex:get "https://www.w3.org/")))

const text = await response.text();
console.log(text);


fetch("https://sourceforge.net").then(function (response) {
    return response.text();
}).then(function (body) {
    return body;

Node.js

require("https").get("https://sourceforge.net", function (resp) {

LSL

Virtually identical to the HTTP Task.

To test it yourself; rez a box on the ground, and add the following as a New Script.

string sURL = "https://SourceForge.Net/";
key kHttpRequestId;
default {
	state_entry() {
		kHttpRequestId = llHTTPRequest(sURL, [], "");
	}
	http_response(key kRequestId, integer iStatus, list lMetaData, string sBody) {
		if(kRequestId==kHttpRequestId) {
			llOwnerSay("Status="+(string)iStatus);
			integer x = 0;
			for(x=0 ; x<llGetListLength(lMetaData) ; x++) {
				llOwnerSay("llList2String(lMetaData, "+(string)x+")="+llList2String(lMetaData, x));
			}
			list lBody = llParseString2List(sBody, ["\n"], []);
			for(x=0 ; x<llGetListLength(lBody) ; x++) {
				llOwnerSay("llList2String(lBody, "+(string)x+")="+llList2String(lBody, x));
			}
		}
	}
}

Library: lua-http
local request = require('http.request')
local headers, stream = request.new_from_uri("https://sourceforge.net/"):go()
local body = stream:get_body_as_string()
local status = headers:get(':status')
io.write(string.format('Status: %d\nBody: %s\n', status, body)

HTTPS requests can be also done with the much smaller libraries like LuaSec or lua-requests, but it currently don't support redirects, which is why I used lua-http in this example.

Maple

content := URL:-Get( "https://www.google.ca/" );

Mathematica / Wolfram Language

Straight forward "Import" task. More complicated secure web access can be done using J/Link; essentially a link to Java API.

content=Import["https://sourceforge.net", "HTML"]

MATLAB / Octave

Nemerle

This example is essentially identical to the HTTP task because the WebClient object can be used with http:, https:, ftp: and file: uri's.

module HTTP
{
    Main() : void
    {
        def wc = WebClient();
        def myStream = wc.OpenRead(https://sourceforge.com);
        def sr = StreamReader(myStream);
        
        WriteLine(sr.ReadToEnd());
        myStream.Close()
    }

PicoLisp

PicoLisp has no functionality for communicating with a HTTPS server (only for the other direction), but it is easy to use an external tool

(in '(curl "https://sourceforge.net")  # Open a pipe to 'curl'
   (out NIL (echo)) )                  # Echo to standard output

Pike

int main() {
    write("%s\n", Protocols.HTTP.get_url_data("https://sourceforge.net"));
}

PowerShell

Invoke-WebRequest 'https://www.rosettacode.org'
$wc = New-Object Net.WebClient
$wc.DownloadString('https://sourceforge.net')

If the certificate could not be validated (untrusted, self-signed, expired), then an Exception is thrown with the message “The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.” so certificate validation is done automatically by the method.

Python

Python's urllib.request library, has support for SSL if the interpreter's underlying httplib libraries were compiled with SSL support. By default this will be the enabled for default Python installations on most platforms.

import urllib.request
print(urllib.request.urlopen("https://sourceforge.net/").read())

R

Library: RCurl
Library: XML

The basic idea is to use getURL (as with HTTP_Request), but with some extra parameters.

library(RCurl)
webpage <- getURL("https://sourceforge.net/", .opts=list(followlocation=TRUE, ssl.verifyhost=FALSE, ssl.verifypeer=FALSE))

In this case, the webpage output contains unprocessed characters, e.g. \" instead of " and \\ instead of \, so we need to process the markup.

wp <- readLines(tc <- textConnection(webpage))
close(tc)

Finally, we parse the HTML and find the interesting bit.

pagetree <- htmlTreeParse(wp)
pagetree$children$html

There are several modules that provide HTTPS capability. WWW and HTTP::UserAgent are probably the most popular right now, but others exist.

use WWW;
say get 'https://sourceforge.net/';

or

use HTTP::UserAgent;
say HTTP::UserAgent.new.get('https://sourceforge.net/').content;

REALbasic

REALBasic provides an HTTPSecureSocket class for handling HTTPS connections. The 'Get' method of the HTTPSecureSocket is overloaded and can download data to a file or return data as a string, in both cases an optional timeout argument can be passed.

      Dim sock As New HTTPSecureSocket
      Print(sock.Get("https://sourceforge.net", 10))  //set the timeout period to 10 seconds.

RLaB

Ruby

This solution doesn't use the open-uri convenience package that the HTTP Request#Ruby solution uses: the Net::HTTP object must be told to use SSL before the session is started.

require 'net/https'
require 'uri'
require 'pp'

uri = URI.parse('https://sourceforge.net')
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host,uri.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE

http.start do
  content = http.get(uri)
  p [content.code, content.message]
  pp content.to_hash
  puts content.body
end

outputs

Seed7

The library gethttps.s7i defines the function getHttps which uses the HTTPS protocol go get a file.

$ include "seed7_05.s7i";
  include "gethttps.s7i";
  include "utf8.s7i";

const proc: main is func

Swift

import Foundation

// With https
let request = NSURLRequest(URL: NSURL(string: "https://sourceforge.net")!)

NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request, queue: NSOperationQueue()) {res, data, err in // callback

CFRunLoopRun() // dispatch

TAV

The preliminary function from the standard library actually pipes a shell invocation of 'curl', thus it might not work in the playground, as shell invocation is there inhibited.

main (parms):+
    url =: 'https://www.rosettacode.org'
    ?# lne =: network url url give lines
            print lne

Tcl

Though Tcl's built-in http package does not understand SSL, it does support the registration of external handlers to accommodate additional protocols. This allows the use of the Tls package to supply the missing functionality with only a single line to complete the registration.

package require http
package require tls

# Tell the http package what to do with “https:” URLs.
#
# First argument is the protocol name, second the default port, and
# third the connection builder command
http::register "https" 443 ::tls::socket
 
# Make a secure connection, which is almost identical to normal
# connections except for the different protocol in the URL.
set token [http::geturl "https://sourceforge.net/"]
 
# Now as for conventional use of the “http” package
puts [http::data $token]
http::cleanup $token

Wren

Translation of: C
Library: libcurl

An embedded program so we can ask the C host to communicate with libcurl for us.

/* HTTPS.wren */

var CURLOPT_URL = 10002
var CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION = 52
var CURLOPT_ERRORBUFFER = 10010

foreign class Curl {
    construct easyInit() {}

    foreign easySetOpt(opt, param)

    foreign easyPerform()

    foreign easyCleanup()
}

var curl = Curl.easyInit()
if (curl == 0) {
    System.print("Error initializing cURL.")
    return
}
curl.easySetOpt(CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.w3.org/")
curl.easySetOpt(CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1)
curl.easySetOpt(CURLOPT_ERRORBUFFER, 0) // buffer to be supplied by C

var status = curl.easyPerform()
if (status != 0) {
    System.print("Failed to perform task.")
    return
}
curl.easyCleanup()


We now embed this in the following C program, compile and run it.

/* gcc HTTPS.c -o HTTPS -lcurl -lwren -lm  */

zkl

Using the cURL library to do the heavy lifting:

zkl: var ZC=Import("zklCurl")
zkl: var data=ZC().get("https://sourceforge.net")
L(Data(36,265),826,0)

get returns the text of the response along with two counts: the bytes of header in front of the html code and the byte count of stuff after the end of the page. So, if you wanted to look at the header:

zkl: data[0][0,data[1]).text
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx
Date: Sun, 23 Mar 2014 07:36:51 GMT
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Connection: close
...

or some of the html:

zkl: data[0][data[1],200).text
<!doctype html>
