SamplePythonDataBridgesCall compilation error

[ahalma]

Hey Valerio,

Thank you for putting up examples on using the DataBridges API!

I believe the SamplePythonDataBridgesCall contains some code at the end that prevents it from compiling... (from line 200).

It seems to be a recipe for creating an API token from a key and a secret. A standalone example to do that with curl would be helpful in it's own right!

In case it comes in handy, here is a bash script, to retrieve the initial API token, given your key and secret.

BASIC_AUTH_USER=mykey
BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD=mysecret
AUTH=$(echo -ne "$BASIC_AUTH_USER:$BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD" | base64 --wrap 0)
curl -X POST -d "grant_type=client_credentials&scope=" -H "Authorization: Basic $AUTH" https://api.wfp.org/token

It can be of use in case you decide to use something other than Python to use the API...
