plucky (3) CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD.3.gz

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

           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);
         }
       }
