This is an interface to the libcurl library.
Converted to D from curl headers by htod and cleaned up by Jonas Drewsen (jdrewsen)

enum string LIBCURL_COPYRIGHT;
This is the global package copyright
enum string LIBCURL_VERSION;
This is the version number of the libcurl package from which this header file origins:
enum int LIBCURL_VERSION_MAJOR;

enum int LIBCURL_VERSION_MINOR;

enum int LIBCURL_VERSION_PATCH;
The numeric version number is also available "in parts" by using these constants
enum int LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM;
This is the numeric version of the libcurl version number, meant for easier parsing and comparions by programs. The LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM define will always follow this syntax:
0xXXYYZZ
Where XX, YY and ZZ are the main version, release and patch numbers in hexadecimal (using 8 bits each). All three numbers are always represented using two digits. 1.2 would appear as "0x010200" while version 9.11.7 appears as "0x090b07".
This 6-digit (24 bits) hexadecimal number does not show pre-release number, and it is always a greater number in a more recent release. It makes comparisons with greater than and less than work.
enum string LIBCURL_TIMESTAMP;
This is the date and time when the full source package was created. The timestamp is not stored in git, as the timestamp is properly set in the tarballs by the maketgz script.
The format of the date should follow this template:
"Mon Feb 12 11:35:33 UTC 2007"
alias curl_off_t = long;
Data type definition of curl_off_t.
jdrewsen - Always 64bit signed and that is what long is in D.
Comment below is from curlbuild.h:
NOTE 2:
For any given platform/compiler curl_off_t must be typedef'ed to a 64-bit wide signed integral data type. The width of this data type must remain constant and independent of any possible large file support settings.
As an exception to the above, curl_off_t shall be typedef'ed to a 32-bit wide signed integral data type if there is no 64-bit type.

alias curl_progress_callback = int function(void* clientp, double dltotal, double dlnow, double ultotal, double ulnow);
enum int CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE;
Tests have proven that 20K is a very bad buffer size for uploads on Windows, while 16K for some odd reason performed a lot better. We do the ifndef check to allow this value to easier be changed at build time for those who feel adventurous. The practical minimum is about 400 bytes since libcurl uses a buffer of this size as a scratch area (unrelated to network send operations).
enum int CURL_MAX_HTTP_HEADER;
The only reason to have a max limit for this is to avoid the risk of a bad server feeding libcurl with a never-ending header that will cause reallocs infinitely
enum int CURL_WRITEFUNC_PAUSE;
This is a magic return code for the write callback that, when returned, will signal libcurl to pause receiving on the current transfer.

If splitting of data transfer is enabled this callback is called after download of an individual chunk finished. Note! After this callback was set then it have to be called FOR ALL chunks. Even if downloading of this chunk was skipped in CHUNK_BGN_FUNC. This is the reason why we don't need "transfer_info" parameter in this callback and we are not interested in "remains" parameter too.

userpwd
"name:password" to use when fetching.
proxyuserpwd
"name:password" to use with proxy.
range
Range to get, specified as an ASCII string.
infile
not used
Specified file stream to upload from (use as input):
errorbuffer
Buffer to receive error messages in, must be at least CURL_ERROR_SIZE bytes big. If this is not used, error messages go to stderr instead:
writefunction
Function that will be called to store the output (instead of fwrite). The parameters will use fwrite() syntax, make sure to follow them.
readfunction
Function that will be called to read the input (instead of fread). The parameters will use fread() syntax, make sure to follow them.
timeout
Time-out the read operation after this amount of seconds
infilesize
If the CURLOPT_INFILE is used, this can be used to inform libcurl about how large the file being sent really is. That allows better error checking and better verifies that the upload was successful. -1 means unknown size.
For large file support, there is also a LARGE version of the key which takes an off_t type, allowing platforms with larger off_t sizes to handle larger files. See below for INFILESIZE_LARGE.
postfields
POST static input fields.
referer
Set the referrer page (needed by some CGIs)
ftpport
Set the FTP PORT string (interface name, named or numerical IP address) Use i.e '-' to use default address.
useragent
Set the User-Agent string (examined by some CGIs)
low_speed_limit
If the download receives less than "low speed limit" bytes/second during "low speed time" seconds, the operations is aborted. You could i.e if you have a pretty high speed connection, abort if it is less than 2000 bytes/sec during 20 seconds.
Set the "low speed limit"
low_speed_time
Set the "low speed time"
resume_from
Set the continuation offset.
Note there is also a LARGE version of this key which uses off_t types, allowing for large file offsets on platforms which use larger-than-32-bit off_t's. Look below for RESUME_FROM_LARGE.
cookie
Set cookie in request:
httpheader
This points to a linked list of headers, struct curl_slist kind
httppost
This points to a linked list of post entries, struct curl_httppost
sslcert
name of the file keeping your private SSL-certificate
keypasswd
password for the SSL or SSH private key
crlf
send TYPE parameter?
quote
send linked-list of QUOTE commands
writeheader
send FILE * or void * to store headers to, if you use a callback it is simply passed to the callback unmodified
cookiefile
point to a file to read the initial cookies from, also enables "cookie awareness"
sslversion
What version to specifically try to use. See CURL_SSLVERSION defines below.
timecondition
What kind of HTTP time condition to use, see defines
timevalue
Time to use with the above condition. Specified in number of seconds since 1 Jan 1970
customrequest
Custom request, for customizing the get command like

HTTP DELETE, TRACE and others

FTP to use a different list command

stderr
HTTP request, for odd commands like DELETE, TRACE and others
postquote
send linked-list of post-transfer QUOTE commands
writeinfo
Pass a pointer to string of the output using full variable-replacement as described elsewhere.

netrc
Specify whether to read the user+password from the .netrc or the URL. This must be one of the CURL_NETRC_* enums below.
followlocation
use Location: Luke!
transfertext
transfer data in text/ASCII format
put
HTTP PUT
progressfunction
Function that will be called instead of the internal progress display function. This function should be defined as the curl_progress_callback prototype defines.
progressdata
Data passed to the progress callback
autoreferer
We want the referrer field set automatically when following locations
proxyport
Port of the proxy, can be set in the proxy string as well with: [host]:[port]
postfieldsize
size of the POST input data, if strlen() is not good to use
httpproxytunnel
tunnel non-http operations through a HTTP proxy
intrface
Set the interface string to use as outgoing network interface
krblevel
Set the krb4/5 security level, this also enables krb4/5 awareness. This is a string, 'clear', 'safe', 'confidential' or 'private'. If the string is set but doesn't match one of these, 'private' will be used.
ssl_verifypeer
Set if we should verify the peer in ssl handshake, set 1 to verify.
cainfo
The CApath or CAfile used to validate the peer certificate this option is used only if SSL_VERIFYPEER is true
maxredirs
Maximum number of http redirects to follow
filetime
Pass a long set to 1 to get the date of the requested document (if possible)! Pass a zero to shut it off.
telnetoptions
This points to a linked list of telnet options
maxconnects
Max amount of cached alive connections
closepolicy
What policy to use when closing connections when the cache is filled up
fresh_connect
Set to explicitly use a new connection for the upcoming transfer. Do not use this unless you're absolutely sure of this, as it makes the operation slower and is less friendly for the network.
forbid_reuse
Set to explicitly forbid the upcoming transfer's connection to be re-used when done. Do not use this unless you're absolutely sure of this, as it makes the operation slower and is less friendly for the network.
random_file
Set to a file name that contains random data for libcurl to use to seed the random engine when doing SSL connects.
egdsocket
Set to the Entropy Gathering Daemon socket pathname
connecttimeout
Time-out connect operations after this amount of seconds, if connects are OK within this time, then fine... This only aborts the connect phase. [Only works on unix-style/SIGALRM operating systems]
headerfunction
Function that will be called to store headers (instead of fwrite). The parameters will use fwrite() syntax, make sure to follow them.
httpget
Set this to force the HTTP request to get back to GET. Only really usable if POST, PUT or a custom request have been used first.
ssl_verifyhost
Set if we should verify the Common name from the peer certificate in ssl handshake, set 1 to check existence, 2 to ensure that it matches the provided hostname.
cookiejar
Specify which file name to write all known cookies in after completed operation. Set file name to "-" (dash) to make it go to stdout.
ssl_cipher_list
Specify which SSL ciphers to use
http_version
Specify which HTTP version to use! This must be set to one of the CURL_HTTP_VERSION* enums set below.

buffersize
Instruct libcurl to use a smaller receive buffer
nosignal
Instruct libcurl to not use any signal/alarm handlers, even when using timeouts. This option is useful for multi-threaded applications. See libcurl-the-guide for more background information.
share
Provide a CURLShare for mutexing non-ts data
proxytype
indicates type of proxy. accepted values are CURLPROXY_HTTP (default), CURLPROXY_SOCKS4, CURLPROXY_SOCKS4A and CURLPROXY_SOCKS5.
encoding
Set the Accept-Encoding string. Use this to tell a server you would like the response to be compressed.
private_opt
Set pointer to private data
http200aliases
Set aliases for HTTP 200 in the HTTP Response header
unrestricted_auth
Continue to send authentication (user+password) when following locations, even when hostname changed. This can potentially send off the name and password to whatever host the server decides.
ftp_use_eprt
Specifically switch on or off the FTP engine's use of the EPRT command ( it also disables the LPRT attempt). By default, those ones will always be attempted before the good old traditional PORT command.
httpauth
Set this to a bitmask value to enable the particular authentications methods you like. Use this in combination with CURLOPT_USERPWD. Note that setting multiple bits may cause extra network round-trips.
ssl_ctx_function
Set the ssl context callback function, currently only for OpenSSL ssl_ctx in second argument. The function must be matching the curl_ssl_ctx_callback proto.
ssl_ctx_data
Set the userdata for the ssl context callback function's third argument
ftp_create_missing_dirs
FTP Option that causes missing dirs to be created on the remote server. In 7.19.4 we introduced the convenience enums for this option using the CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR prefix.
proxyauth
Set this to a bitmask value to enable the particular authentications methods you like. Use this in combination with CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD. Note that setting multiple bits may cause extra network round-trips.
ftp_response_timeout
FTP option that changes the timeout, in seconds, associated with getting a response. This is different from transfer timeout time and essentially places a demand on the FTP server to acknowledge commands in a timely manner.
ipresolve
Set this option to one of the CURL_IPRESOLVE_* defines (see below) to tell libcurl to resolve names to those IP versions only. This only has affect on systems with support for more than one, i.e IPv4 and_ IPv6.
maxfilesize
Set this option to limit the size of a file that will be downloaded from an HTTP or FTP server.
Note there is also LARGE version which adds large file support for platforms which have larger off_t sizes. See MAXFILESIZE_LARGE below.
infilesize_large
See the comment for INFILESIZE above, but in short, specifies the size of the file being uploaded. -1 means unknown.
resume_from_large
Sets the continuation offset. There is also a LONG version of this; look above for RESUME_FROM.
maxfilesize_large
Sets the maximum size of data that will be downloaded from an HTTP or FTP server. See MAXFILESIZE above for the LONG version.
netrc_file
Set this option to the file name of your .netrc file you want libcurl to parse (using the CURLOPT_NETRC option). If not set, libcurl will do a poor attempt to find the user's home directory and check for a .netrc file in there.
use_ssl
Enable SSL/TLS for FTP, pick one of: CURLFTPSSL_TRY - try using SSL, proceed anyway otherwise CURLFTPSSL_CONTROL - SSL for the control connection or fail CURLFTPSSL_ALL - SSL for all communication or fail
postfieldsize_large
The LARGE version of the standard POSTFIELDSIZE option
tcp_nodelay
Enable/disable the TCP Nagle algorithm
ftpsslauth
When FTP over SSL/TLS is selected (with CURLOPT_USE_SSL), this option can be used to change libcurl's default action which is to first try "AUTH SSL" and then "AUTH TLS" in this order, and proceed when a OK response has been received.
Available parameters are: CURLFTPAUTH_DEFAULT - let libcurl decide CURLFTPAUTH_SSL - try "AUTH SSL" first, then TLS CURLFTPAUTH_TLS - try "AUTH TLS" first, then SSL
ioctlfunction
ioctldata
ftp_account
zero terminated string for pass on to the FTP server when asked for "account" info
cookielist

ignore_content_length
ignore Content-Length
ftp_skip_pasv_ip
Set to non-zero to skip the IP address received in a 227 PASV FTP server response. Typically used for FTP-SSL purposes but is not restricted to that. libcurl will then instead use the same IP address it used for the control connection.
ftp_filemethod
Select "file method" to use when doing FTP, see the curl_ftpmethod above.
localport
Local port number to bind the socket to
localportrange
Number of ports to try, including the first one set with LOCALPORT. Thus, setting it to 1 will make no additional attempts but the first.
connect_only
no transfer, set up connection and let application use the socket by extracting it with CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET
conv_from_network_function
Function that will be called to convert from the network encoding (instead of using the iconv calls in libcurl)
conv_to_network_function
Function that will be called to convert to the network encoding (instead of using the iconv calls in libcurl)

new_file_perms

new_directory_perms
Permission used when creating new files and directories on the remote server for protocols that support it, SFTP/SCP/FILE
postredir
Set the behaviour of POST when redirecting. Values must be set to one of CURL_REDIR* defines below. This used to be called CURLOPT_POST301
ssh_host_public_key_md5
used by scp/sftp to verify the host's public key

proxypassword
"name" and "pwd" to use with Proxy when fetching.
noproxy
Comma separated list of hostnames defining no-proxy zones. These should match both hostnames directly, and hostnames within a domain. For example, local.com will match local.com and www.local.com, but NOT notlocal.com or www.notlocal.com. For compatibility with other implementations of this, .local.com will be considered to be the same as local.com. A single * is the only valid wildcard, and effectively disables the use of proxy.
tftp_blksize
block size for TFTP transfers
socks5_gssapi_service
Socks Service
socks5_gssapi_nec
Socks Service
protocols

redir_protocols
set the bitmask for the protocols that libcurl is allowed to follow to, as a subset of the CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS ones. That means the protocol needs to be set in both bitmasks to be allowed to get redirected to. Defaults to all protocols except FILE and SCP.

Name curl_easy_getinfo()

Description Request internal information from the curl session with this function. The third argument MUST be a pointer to a long, a pointer to a char * or a pointer to a double (as the documentation describes elsewhere). The data pointed to will be filled in accordingly and can be relied upon only if the function returns CURLE_OK. This function is intended to get used AFTER a performed transfer, all results from this function are undefined until the transfer is completed.

CURL* curl_easy_duphandle(CURL* curl);

Name curl_easy_duphandle()

Description Creates a new curl session handle with the same options set for the handle passed in. Duplicating a handle could only be a matter of cloning data and options, internal state info and things like persistant connections cannot be transfered. It is useful in multithreaded applications when you can run curl_easy_duphandle() for each new thread to avoid a series of identical curl_easy_setopt() invokes in every thread.

void curl_easy_reset(CURL* curl);

Name curl_easy_reset()

Description Re-initializes a CURL handle to the default values. This puts back the handle to the same state as it was in when it was just created.

Name curl_multi_perform()

Desc When the app thinks there's data available for curl it calls this function to read/write whatever there is right now. This returns as soon as the reads and writes are done. This function does not require that there actually is data available for reading or that data can be written, it can be called just in case. It returns the number of handles that still transfer data in the second argument's integer-pointer.

Returns:
CURLMcode type, general multi error code. NOTE that this only returns errors etc regarding the whole multi stack. There might still have occurred problems on invidual transfers even when this returns OK.
CURLMcode curl_multi_cleanup(CURLM* multi_handle);

Name curl_multi_cleanup()

Desc Cleans up and removes a whole multi stack. It does not free or touch any individual easy handles in any way. We need to define in what state those handles will be if this function is called in the middle of a transfer.

Returns:
CURLMcode type, general multi error code.
CURLMsg* curl_multi_info_read(CURLM* multi_handle, int* msgs_in_queue);

Name curl_multi_info_read()

Desc Ask the multi handle if there's any messages/informationals from the individual transfers. Messages include informationals such as error code from the transfer or just the fact that a transfer is completed. More details on these should be written down as well.

Repeated calls to this function will return a new struct each time, until a special "end of msgs" struct is returned as a signal that there is no more to get at this point.
The data the returned pointer points to will not survive calling curl_multi_cleanup().
The 'CURLMsg' struct is meant to be very simple and only contain very basic informations. If more involved information is wanted, we will provide the particular "transfer handle" in that struct and that should/could/would be used in subsequent curl_easy_getinfo() calls (or similar). The point being that we must never expose complex structs to applications, as then we'll undoubtably get backwards compatibility problems in the future.

Returns:
A pointer to a filled-in struct, or NULL if it failed or ran out of structs. It also writes the number of messages left in the queue (after this read) in the integer the second argument points to.
const(char)* curl_multi_strerror(CURLMcode);

Name curl_multi_strerror()

Desc The curl_multi_strerror function may be used to turn a CURLMcode value into the equivalent human readable error string. This is useful for printing meaningful error messages.

Returns:
A pointer to a zero-terminated error message.
enum CurlPoll: int;

Name curl_multi_socket() and curl_multi_socket_all()

Desc An alternative version of curl_multi_perform() that allows the application to pass in one of the file descriptors that have been detected to have "action" on them and let libcurl perform. See man page for details.

Name curl_multi_timer_callback

Desc Called by libcurl whenever the library detects a change in the maximum number of milliseconds the app is allowed to wait before curl_multi_socket() or curl_multi_perform() must be called (to allow libcurl's timed events to take place).

Returns:
The callback should return zero.
CURLMcode curl_multi_socket(CURLM* multi_handle, curl_socket_t s, int* running_handles);

Name curl_multi_timer_callback

Desc Called by libcurl whenever the library detects a change in the maximum number of milliseconds the app is allowed to wait before curl_multi_socket() or curl_multi_perform() must be called (to allow libcurl's timed events to take place).

Returns:
The callback should return zero.

Name curl_multi_timer_callback

Desc Called by libcurl whenever the library detects a change in the maximum number of milliseconds the app is allowed to wait before curl_multi_socket() or curl_multi_perform() must be called (to allow libcurl's timed events to take place).

Returns:
The callback should return zero.
CURLMcode curl_multi_socket_all(CURLM* multi_handle, int* running_handles);
ditto

Name curl_multi_timer_callback

Desc Called by libcurl whenever the library detects a change in the maximum number of milliseconds the app is allowed to wait before curl_multi_socket() or curl_multi_perform() must be called (to allow libcurl's timed events to take place).

Returns:
The callback should return zero.
CURLMcode curl_multi_timeout(CURLM* multi_handle, c_long* milliseconds);
This macro below was added in 7.16.3 to push users who recompile to use the new curl_multi_socket_action() instead of the old curl_multi_socket()

Name curl_multi_timeout()

Desc Returns the maximum number of milliseconds the app is allowed to wait before curl_multi_socket() or curl_multi_perform() must be called (to allow libcurl's timed events to take place).

Returns:
CURLM error code.

CURLMcode curl_multi_setopt(CURLM* multi_handle, CURLMoption option, ...);

Name curl_multi_setopt()

Desc Sets options for the multi handle.

Returns:
CURLM error code.
CURLMcode curl_multi_assign(CURLM* multi_handle, curl_socket_t sockfd, void* sockp);

Name curl_multi_assign()

Desc This function sets an association in the multi handle between the given socket and a private pointer of the application. This is (only) useful for curl_multi_socket uses.

Returns:
CURLM error code.
