-- Step 1: Import the required HTTP library
local http = require("socket.http")
-- Step 2: Define the base URL for the Rhyme API
local apiUrl = "https://api.rhyme.com/v1/rhymes"
-- Step 3: Prepare the request headers
local headers = {
["Content-Type"] = "application/json",
["Authorization"] = "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" -- Replace with your actual API key
}
-- Step 4: Prepare the request body with the input word
local inputWord = "example" -- Replace with the word for which you want rhymes
local requestBody = string.format('{"word": "%s"}', inputWord)
-- Step 5: Make the HTTP POST request to the Rhyme API
local response, status, headers = http.request {
url = apiUrl,
method = "POST",
headers = headers,
source = ltn12.source.string(requestBody),
sink = ltn12.sink.table(responseBody)
}
-- Step 6: Check if the request was successful (status code 200)
if status == 200 then
-- Step 7: Process and use the rhymes from the response body (assumed to be in JSON format)
local rhymesJson = table.concat(responseBody)
local rhymes = decodeJson(rhymesJson) -- Assume a function decodeJson is defined for JSON decoding
-- Now you can use the 'rhymes' data as needed
else
-- Step 8: Handle the case where the request was not successful
print("Error: Unable to retrieve rhymes. Status code: " .. status)
