.TH curl_easy_getinfo 3 "11 Feb 2009" "libcurl 7.19.4" "libcurl Manual"
.SH NAME
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
curl_easy_getinfo - extract information from a curl handle
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <curl/curl.h>
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.B "CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *curl, CURLINFO info, ... );"
.SH DESCRIPTION
Request internal information from the curl session with this function. The
third argument \fBMUST\fP be a pointer to a long, a pointer to a char *, a
pointer to a struct curl_slist * or a pointer to a double (as this
documentation describes further down). The data pointed-to will be filled in
accordingly and can be relied upon only if the function returns CURLE_OK. Use
this function AFTER a performed transfer if you want to get transfer- oriented
data.
2004-08-25 00:36:38 +04:00
You should not free the memory returned by this function unless it is
2007-05-03 23:12:45 +04:00
explicitly mentioned below.
.SH AVAILABLE INFORMATION
2004-03-25 00:40:45 +03:00
The following information can be extracted:
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL
Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive the last used effective URL.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the last received HTTP or FTP code. This
2004-12-22 15:31:55 +03:00
option was known as CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE in libcurl 7.10.7 and earlier. This
will be zero if no server response code has been received. Note that a proxy's
CONNECT response should be read with \fICURLINFO_HTTP_CONNECTCODE\fP and not
this.
.IP CURLINFO_HTTP_CONNECTCODE
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the last received proxy response code to a
CONNECT request.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_FILETIME
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the remote time of the retrieved document
(in number of seconds since 1 jan 1970 in the GMT/UTC time zone). If you get
-1, it can be because of many reasons (unknown, the server hides it or the
server doesn't support the command that tells document time etc) and the time
of the document is unknown. Note that you must tell the server to collect this
information before the transfer is made, by using the CURLOPT_FILETIME option
to \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP or you will unconditionally get a -1 back. (Added
in 7.5)
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_TOTAL_TIME
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total time in seconds for the
previous transfer, including name resolving, TCP connect etc.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_NAMELOOKUP_TIME
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
start until the name resolving was completed.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
start until the connect to the remote host (or proxy) was completed.
.IP CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
start until the SSL/SSH connect/handshake to the remote host was completed.
This time is most often very near to the PRETRANSFER time, except for cases
such as HTTP pippelining where the pretransfer time can be delayed due to
waits in line for the pipeline and more. (Added in 7.19.0)
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
start until the file transfer is just about to begin. This includes all
pre-transfer commands and negotiations that are specific to the particular
protocol(s) involved.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFER_TIME
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
2004-03-25 00:40:45 +03:00
start until the first byte is just about to be transferred. This includes
CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME and also the time the server needs to calculate
the result.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME
2002-04-17 11:21:17 +04:00
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total time, in seconds, it took for
all redirection steps include name lookup, connect, pretransfer and transfer
before final transaction was started. CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME contains the
complete execution time for multiple redirections. (Added in 7.9.7)
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_REDIRECT_COUNT
2002-04-17 11:21:17 +04:00
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the total number of redirections that were
actually followed. (Added in 7.9.7)
.IP CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL
Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive the URL a redirect \fIwould\fP
take you to if you would enable CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION. This can come very
handy if you think using the built-in libcurl redirect logic isn't good enough
for you but you would still prefer to avoid implementing all the magic of
figuring out the new URL. (Added in 7.18.2)
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_SIZE_UPLOAD
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total amount of bytes that were
uploaded.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total amount of bytes that were
downloaded. The amount is only for the latest transfer and will be reset again
for each new transfer.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the average download speed that curl
2007-04-01 00:19:02 +04:00
measured for the complete download. Measured in bytes/second.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_SPEED_UPLOAD
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the average upload speed that curl
2007-04-01 00:19:02 +04:00
measured for the complete upload. Measured in bytes/second.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_HEADER_SIZE
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the total size of all the headers
2007-04-01 00:19:02 +04:00
received. Measured in number of bytes.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_REQUEST_SIZE
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the total size of the issued
requests. This is so far only for HTTP requests. Note that this may be more
than one request if FOLLOWLOCATION is true.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_SSL_VERIFYRESULT
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the result of the certification
verification that was requested (using the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER option to
\fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP).
.IP CURLINFO_SSL_ENGINES
Pass the address of a 'struct curl_slist *' to receive a linked-list of
OpenSSL crypto-engines supported. Note that engines are normally implemented
in separate dynamic libraries. Hence not all the returned engines may be
available at run-time. \fBNOTE:\fP you must call \fIcurl_slist_free_all(3)\fP
on the list pointer once you're done with it, as libcurl will not free the
data for you. (Added in 7.12.3)
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the content-length of the download. This
is the value read from the Content-Length: field. Since 7.19.4, this returns -1
if the size isn't known.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the specified size of the upload. Since
7.19.4, this returns -1 if the size isn't known.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_CONTENT_TYPE
Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive the content-type of the downloaded
object. This is the value read from the Content-Type: field. If you get NULL,
it means that the server didn't send a valid Content-Type header or that the
protocol used doesn't support this.
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_PRIVATE
Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive the pointer to the private data
2003-11-04 16:27:28 +03:00
associated with the curl handle (set with the CURLOPT_PRIVATE option to
\fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP). Please note that for internal reasons, the
value is returned as a char pointer, although effectively being a 'void *'.
(Added in 7.10.3)
2003-12-18 16:33:14 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_HTTPAUTH_AVAIL
Pass a pointer to a long to receive a bitmask indicating the authentication
method(s) available. The meaning of the bits is explained in the
CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH option for \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP. (Added in 7.10.8)
2003-12-18 16:33:14 +03:00
.IP CURLINFO_PROXYAUTH_AVAIL
Pass a pointer to a long to receive a bitmask indicating the authentication
2004-03-25 00:40:45 +03:00
method(s) available for your proxy authentication. (Added in 7.10.8)
.IP CURLINFO_OS_ERRNO
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the errno variable from a connect failure.
2004-10-01 10:43:48 +04:00
(Added in 7.12.2)
2004-10-19 19:30:08 +04:00
.IP CURLINFO_NUM_CONNECTS
Pass a pointer to a long to receive how many new connections libcurl had to
create to achieve the previous transfer (only the successful connects are
counted). Combined with \fICURLINFO_REDIRECT_COUNT\fP you are able to know
how many times libcurl successfully reused existing connection(s) or not. See
the Connection Options of \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP to see how libcurl tries
to make persistent connections to save time. (Added in 7.12.3)
.IP CURLINFO_PRIMARY_IP
Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive the pointer to a zero-terminated
string holding the IP address of the most recent connection done with this
\fBcurl\fP handle. This string may be IPv6 if that's enabled. Note that you
get a pointer to a memory area that will be re-used at next request so you
2008-06-09 02:00:42 +04:00
need to copy the string if you want to keep the information. (Added in 7.19.0)
.IP CURLINFO_COOKIELIST
Pass a pointer to a 'struct curl_slist *' to receive a linked-list of all
cookies cURL knows (expired ones, too). Don't forget to
2005-08-25 11:06:15 +04:00
\fIcurl_slist_free_all(3)\fP the list after it has been used. If there are no
cookies (cookies for the handle have not been enabled or simply none have been
received) 'struct curl_slist *' will be set to point to NULL. (Added in
7.14.1)
.IP CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the last socket used by this curl
session. If the socket is no longer valid, -1 is returned. When you finish
working with the socket, you must call curl_easy_cleanup() as usual and let
libcurl close the socket and cleanup other resources associated with the
handle. This is typically used in combination with \fICURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY\fP.
(Added in 7.15.2)
.IP CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH
Pass a pointer to a char pointer to receive a pointer to a string holding the
path of the entry path. That is the initial path libcurl ended up in when
logging on to the remote FTP server. This stores a NULL as pointer if
something is wrong. (Added in 7.15.4)
2008-10-16 15:35:19 +04:00
.IP CURLINFO_CERTINFO
Pass a pointer to a 'struct curl_certinfo *' and you'll get it set to point to
struct that holds a number of linked lists with info about the certificate
chain, assuming you had CURLOPT_CERTINFO enabled when the previous request was
done. The struct reports how many certs it found and then you can extract info
for each of those certs by following the linked lists. The info chain is
provided in a series of data in the format "name:content" where the content is
for the specific named data. See also the certinfo.c example. NOTE: this
option is only available in libcurl built with OpenSSL support. (Added in
2008-10-16 15:35:19 +04:00
7.19.1)
.IP CURLINFO_CONDITION_UNMET
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the number 1 if the condition provided in
the previous request didn't match (see \fICURLOPT_TIMECONDITION\fP). Alas, if
this returns a 1 you know that the reason you didn't get data in return is
because it didn't fulfill the condition. The long ths argument points to will
get a zero stored if the condition instead was met. (Added in 7.19.4)
