- .TH CURLOPT_HTTPPOST 3 "May 17, 2022" "libcurl 7.85.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
- .SH NAME
- CURLOPT_HTTPPOST \- multipart formpost content
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .nf
- #include <curl/curl.h>
- CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTPPOST,
- struct curl_httppost *formpost);
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- Tells libcurl you want a multipart/formdata HTTP POST to be made and you
- instruct what data to pass on to the server in the \fIformpost\fP argument.
- Pass a pointer to a linked list of curl_httppost structs as parameter. The
- easiest way to create such a list, is to use \fIcurl_formadd(3)\fP as
- documented. The data in this list must remain intact as long as the curl
- transfer is alive and is using it.
- Using POST with HTTP 1.1 implies the use of a "Expect: 100-continue" header.
- You can disable this header with \fICURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3)\fP.
- When setting \fICURLOPT_HTTPPOST(3)\fP, it will automatically set
- \fICURLOPT_NOBODY(3)\fP to 0.
- This option is deprecated! Do not use it. Use \fICURLOPT_MIMEPOST(3)\fP
- instead after having prepared mime data.
- .SH DEFAULT
- NULL
- .SH PROTOCOLS
- HTTP
- .SH EXAMPLE
- .nf
- /* Fill in the file upload field. This makes libcurl load data from
- the given file name when curl_easy_perform() is called. */
- curl_formadd(&formpost,
- &lastptr,
- CURLFORM_COPYNAME, "sendfile",
- CURLFORM_FILE, "postit2.c",
- CURLFORM_END);
- /* Fill in the filename field */
- curl_formadd(&formpost,
- &lastptr,
- CURLFORM_COPYNAME, "filename",
- CURLFORM_COPYCONTENTS, "postit2.c",
- CURLFORM_END);
- /* Fill in the submit field too, even if this is rarely needed */
- curl_formadd(&formpost,
- &lastptr,
- CURLFORM_COPYNAME, "submit",
- CURLFORM_COPYCONTENTS, "send",
- CURLFORM_END);
- .fi
- .SH AVAILABILITY
- As long as HTTP is enabled. Deprecated in 7.56.0.
- .SH RETURN VALUE
- Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is enabled, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
