NAME

       CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE - proxy protocol type

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, long type);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass one of the values below to set the type of the proxy.

              CURLPROXY_HTTP
                     HTTP Proxy. Default.

              CURLPROXY_HTTPS
                     HTTPS  Proxy  using  HTTP/1.  (Added in 7.52.0 for OpenSSL and GnuTLS. Since
                     7.87.0, it  also  works  for  BearSSL,  mbedTLS,  rustls,  Schannel,  Secure
                     Transport and wolfSSL.)

              CURLPROXY_HTTPS2
                     HTTPS Proxy and attempt to speak HTTP/2 over it. (Added in 8.1.0)

              CURLPROXY_HTTP_1_0
                     HTTP  1.0  Proxy.  This is similar to CURLPROXY_HTTP except it uses HTTP/1.0
                     for any CONNECT tunneling. It does not change the HTTP version of the actual
                     HTTP requests, controlled by CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION(3).

              CURLPROXY_SOCKS4
                     SOCKS4 Proxy.

              CURLPROXY_SOCKS4A
                     SOCKS4a Proxy. Proxy resolves URL hostname.

              CURLPROXY_SOCKS5
                     SOCKS5 Proxy.

              CURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME
                     SOCKS5 Proxy. Proxy resolves URL hostname.

       Often  it  is  more  convenient  to  specify  the  proxy  type with the scheme part of the
       CURLOPT_PROXY(3) string.

           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "local.example.com:1080");
           /* set the proxy type */
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, CURLPROXY_SOCKS5);
