Is it possible to make http requests with MATLAB?

I am specifically interested in the way to make a request and store the response as a new varia开发者_如何转开发ble.

Try starting with the functions urlread and web.

urlread will make an HTTP request to any URL and return the results as a char array.

For example:

>> s = urlread('http://www.mathworks.com');
>> whos s
  Name      Size               Bytes  Class    Attributes

  s         1x23346            46692  char               

Depending on exactly what you're looking to extract as a variable, you may have to further post-process the result using functions like regexp and str2double.

You can use matlab.net.http

header = [matlab.net.http.field.AcceptField(matlab.net.http.MediaType('application/json'))...
    matlab.net.http.field.ContentTypeField('text/plain');];
body = jsonencode(data);
request = matlab.net.http.RequestMessage(matlab.net.http.RequestMethod.POST,...
    header,...
    body);
response = send(request, self.address);
result = response.Body.Data;
