Payload variable in Go examples

Technical Issue Reporting
#1

Perhaps I missed it in the documentation - what is intended to be in the payload variable in the Go examples?

Like this:
req, _ := http.NewRequest(“GET”, url, payload)

#2

You are referring to a specific endpoint or in general?

#3

There are many endpoints that have it referenced, but in this case I’m looking at this one

#4

It looks like a typo in documentation as that variable wasn’t declared before.

#5

payload is required for the call but I don’t know what’s expected to be in it

#6

Did you try with an empty value?

#7

Yes, that didn’t work.

#8

You can check the example with curl and make an equivalent in go assuming that you know go better than the other programming languages form the documentation.

#9

I think what’s there is the equivalent in Go, it’s just missing some doco. Hmmmm.

#10

This is where I’m currently stuck - not sure what’s wrong

package main

import (
“fmt”
“io/ioutil”
“net/http”
“strings”
)

func main() {

url := "https://deep-index.moralis.io/api/v2/nft/0x7d1afa7b718fb893db30a3abc0cfc608aacfebb0/trades?chain=eth&marketplace=opensea"
payload := getPayload()
req, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", url, payload)

req.Header.Add("Accept", "application/json")
req.Header.Add("X-API-Key", "MyAPIKey")

res, err := http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
if err != nil {
	fmt.Println("Error executing request:", err)
	return
}

defer func() {
	if err := res.Body.Close(); err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Error closing response body:", err)
	}
}()

body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(res.Body)
if err != nil {
	fmt.Println("Error reading response body:", err)
	return
}

fmt.Println(res)
fmt.Println(string(body))

}

func getPayload() *strings.Reader {
payload := strings.NewReader({"from_block":1,"to_block":9999999999,"limit":500,"cursor":"","disable_total":true})
return payload
}

#11

What happens? What doesn’t work?

#12

I actually rewrote the function entirely and it works - I am having some issues getting the cursor part to work now
