Julia wrapper for libCURL
This is a simple Julia wrapper around http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/ generated using Clang.jl. Please see the libcurl API documentation for help on how to use this package.
using LibCURL
# init a curl handle
curl = curl_easy_init()
# set the URL and request to follow redirects
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com")
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1)
# setup the callback function to recv data
function curl_write_cb(curlbuf::Ptr{Cvoid}, s::Csize_t, n::Csize_t, p_ctxt::Ptr{Cvoid})
sz = s * n
data = Array{UInt8}(undef, sz)
ccall(:memcpy, Ptr{Cvoid}, (Ptr{Cvoid}, Ptr{Cvoid}, UInt64), data, curlbuf, sz)
println("recd: ", String(data))
sz::Csize_t
end
c_curl_write_cb = @cfunction(curl_write_cb, Csize_t, (Ptr{Cvoid}, Csize_t, Csize_t, Ptr{Cvoid}))
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, c_curl_write_cb)
# execute the query
res = curl_easy_perform(curl)
println("curl url exec response : ", res)
# retrieve HTTP code
http_code = Array{Clong}(undef, 1)
curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE, http_code)
println("httpcode : ", http_code)
# release handle
curl_easy_cleanup(curl)
This package uses the LibCURL_jll binary package to install compiled libCURL binaries on all supported platforms. The following products are defined in the jll
libcurl: ALibraryProductreferencing the shared librarycurl: AnExecutableProductreferencing the binary
This package also uses the MozillaCACerts_jll package to supply the Mozilla CA root certificate bundle. Note that the cacert symbol is re-exported from this package for ease of use.
cacert: AFileProductreferencing the Mozilla CA certificate bundle
Making SSL/TLS connections usually needs access to a CA certificate to validate peers. The Mozilla CA bundle can be used via this package. To use this certificate bundle, set the following option:
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CAINFO, LibCURL.cacert)
