CURLOPT_NETRC(3)					     curl_easy_setopt options						  CURLOPT_NETRC(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_NETRC - request that .netrc is used SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_NETRC, long level); DESCRIPTION
This parameter controls the preference level of libcurl between using user names and passwords from your ~/.netrc file, relative to user names and passwords in the URL supplied with CURLOPT_URL(3). libcurl uses a user name (and supplied or prompted password) supplied with CURLOPT_USERPWD(3) or CURLOPT_USERNAME(3) in preference to any of the options controlled by this parameter. Only machine name, user name and password are taken into account (init macros and similar things aren't supported). libcurl does not verify that the file has the correct properties set (as the standard Unix ftp client does). It should only be readable by user. level should be set to one of the values described below. CURL_NETRC_OPTIONAL The use of your ~/.netrc file is optional, and information in the URL is to be preferred. The file will be scanned for the host and user name (to find the password only) or for the host only, to find the first user name and password after that machine, which ever information is not specified in the URL. Undefined values of the option will have this effect. CURL_NETRC_IGNORED The library will ignore the file and use only the information in the URL. This is the default. CURL_NETRC_REQUIRED This value tells the library that use of the file is required, to ignore the information in the URL, and to search the file for the host only. DEFAULT

CURLOPT_UPLOAD(3)					     curl_easy_setopt options						 CURLOPT_UPLOAD(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_UPLOAD - enable data upload SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_UPLOAD, long upload); DESCRIPTION
The long parameter upload set to 1 tells the library to prepare for and perform an upload. The CURLOPT_READDATA(3) and CURLOPT_INFILE- SIZE(3) or CURLOPT_INFILESIZE_LARGE(3) options are also interesting for uploads. If the protocol is HTTP, uploading means using the PUT request unless you tell libcurl otherwise. Using PUT with HTTP 1.1 implies the use of a "Expect: 100-continue" header. You can disable this header with CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3) as usual. If you use PUT to a HTTP 1.1 server, you can upload data without knowing the size before starting the transfer if you use chunked encoding. You enable this by adding a header like "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" with CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3). With HTTP 1.0 or without chunked transfer, you must specify the size. DEFAULT
0, default is download PROTOCOLS

CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { /* we want to use our own read function */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_READFUNCTION, read_callback); /* enable uploading */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_UPLOAD, 1L); /* specify target */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/dir/to/newfile"); /* now specify which pointer to pass to our callback */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_READDATA, hd_src); /* Set the size of the file to upload */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_INFILESIZE_LARGE, (curl_off_t)fsize); /* Now run off and do what you've been told! */ curl_easy_perform(curl); } AVAILABILITY
