NAME

       CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE - specify type of the client SSL certificate

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

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

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a  pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. The string should be the format
       of your certificate. Supported formats are "PEM" and "DER", except with Secure  Transport.
       OpenSSL  (versions  0.9.3 and later) and Secure Transport (on iOS 5 or later, or OS X 10.7
       or later) also 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.

EXAMPLE

       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
         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");
         ret = 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.
