Get Json body and Response Status from Bash Script POST - bash

Question

Currently I am using:
#!/bin/bash
PROCESS=$(curl --location --request -v -X POST 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{"title": "foo","body": "bar","userId": "1"}')
echo "$PROCESS"
And getting:
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current
Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed
100 111 100 67 100 44 208 137 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 344
{
"title": "foo",
"body": "bar",
"userId": "1",
"id": 101
}
But I also want the response status e.g. 201 or like this.

I want to do the post and the echo out body and response code in a nice way.

Answer 1

Response code is sent in HTTP headers.
You may redirect headers to STDERR e.g. as described here: Report HTTP Response Headers to stderr?
So you may do this:
out=$(curl -s -D /dev/stderr http://boardreader.com 2>/tmp/headers)
# parse /tmp/headers
If you don't want to mess with temp file, you may try more complex solutions like
Capture stdout and stderr into different variables

Answer 2

You can only issue either a post or header request in one call and so you will need to do this in two separate calls read into the same variable and so:
PROCESS=$(curl -I 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts' && curl -X POST 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts' --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --data '{"title": "foo","body": "bar","userId": "1"}')
To me it makes sense to check the headers first and if this command is successful, get the json response with both being read into the PROCESS variable. You can of course change the order if you wish.
