CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD(3) | Library Functions Manual | CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD(3) |
NAME
CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD - username and password to use for proxy authentication
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, char *userpwd);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a char pointer as parameter, which should be [username]:[password] to use for the connection to the HTTP proxy. Both the name and the password are URL decoded before used, so to include for example a colon in the username you should encode it as %3A. (This is different to how CURLOPT_USERPWD(3) is used - beware.)
Use CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH(3) to specify the authentication method.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.
Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the previous ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again.
DEFAULT
NULL
PROTOCOLS

EXAMPLE
int main(void) { CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { CURLcode res; curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/foo.bin"); curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://localhost:8080"); curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, "clark%20kent:superman"); res = curl_easy_perform(curl); curl_easy_cleanup(curl); } }
