CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE(3)     Library Functions Manual     CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE - type of client SSL certificate

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE, char *type);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string as parameter. The string
       should be the format of your certificate.

       Supported formats are "PEM" and "DER", except with Secure Transport or
       Schannel. OpenSSL (versions 0.9.3 and later), Secure Transport (on iOS
       5 or later, or OS X 10.7 or later) and Schannel support "P12" for
       PKCS#12-encoded files.

       The application does not have to keep the string around after setting
       this option.

DEFAULT
       "PEM"

PROTOCOLS
       All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

       This option works only with the following TLS backends: GnuTLS,
       OpenSSL, Schannel, Secure Transport, mbedTLS and wolfSSL

EXAMPLE
       int main(void)
       {
         CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
         if(curl) {
           CURLcode res;
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, "client.pem");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE, "PEM");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLKEY, "key.pem");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }

AVAILABILITY
       If built TLS enabled. Added in 7.9.3

RETURN VALUE
       Returns CURLE_OK if TLS is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or
       CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
