Transform Curl http://IP:PORT/sendLocalEvent? eventName=_event into Javafx

Question

I would like to make an app in javafx , when you press a button sends a command like: curl http://IP:PORTA/sendLocalEvent?eventName=_evento to a server on the same network to start the _event event.

Would it be using httpUrlConnection and POST? How would it be?

Answer 1

In this case Javafx does not differ from Java, so the same traditional method is used:

URL url = new URL("http://IP:PORTA/sendLocalEvent?eventName=_evento");
HttpURLConnection httpcon = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
httpcon.setRequestMethod("POST");
httpcon.setDoOutPut(true);
