.TH CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION 3 "17 Jun 2014" "libcurl 7.37.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION \- callback that receives header data
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
size_t header_callback(char *buffer,
|
|
size_t size,
|
|
size_t nitems,
|
|
void *userdata);
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION, header_callback);
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Pass a pointer to your callback function, which should match the prototype
|
|
shown above.
|
|
|
|
This function gets called by libcurl as soon as it has received header
|
|
data. The header callback will be called once for each header and only
|
|
complete header lines are passed on to the callback. Parsing headers is very
|
|
easy using this. The size of the data pointed to by \fIbuffer\fP is \fIsize\fP
|
|
multiplied with \fInmemb\fP. Do not assume that the header line is zero
|
|
terminated! The pointer named \fIuserdata\fP is the one you set with the
|
|
\fICURLOPT_HEADERDATA(3)\fP option. This callback function must return the
|
|
number of bytes actually taken care of. If that amount differs from the amount
|
|
passed in to your function, it'll signal an error to the library. This will
|
|
cause the transfer to get aborted and the libcurl function in progress will
|
|
return \fICURLE_WRITE_ERROR\fP.
|
|
|
|
A complete HTTP header that is passed to this function can be up to
|
|
\fICURL_MAX_HTTP_HEADER\fP (100K) bytes.
|
|
|
|
If this option is not set, or if it is set to NULL, but
|
|
\fICURLOPT_HEADERDATA(3)\fP is set to anything but NULL, the function used to
|
|
accept response data will be used instead. That is, it will be the function
|
|
specified with \fICURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION(3)\fP, or if it is not specified or
|
|
NULL - the default, stream-writing function.
|
|
|
|
It's important to note that the callback will be invoked for the headers of
|
|
all responses received after initiating a request and not just the final
|
|
response. This includes all responses which occur during authentication
|
|
negotiation. If you need to operate on only the headers from the final
|
|
response, you will need to collect headers in the callback yourself and use
|
|
HTTP status lines, for example, to delimit response boundaries.
|
|
|
|
When a server sends a chunked encoded transfer, it may contain a trailer. That
|
|
trailer is identical to a HTTP header and if such a trailer is received it is
|
|
passed to the application using this callback as well. There are several ways
|
|
to detect it being a trailer and not an ordinary header: 1) it comes after the
|
|
response-body. 2) it comes after the final header line (CR LF) 3) a Trailer:
|
|
header among the regular response-headers mention what header(s) to expect in
|
|
the trailer.
|
|
|
|
For non-HTTP protocols like FTP, POP3, IMAP and SMTP this function will get
|
|
called with the server responses to the commands that libcurl sends.
|
|
.SH DEFAULT
|
|
Nothing.
|
|
.SH PROTOCOLS
|
|
Used for all protocols with headers or meta-data concept: HTTP, FTP, POP3,
|
|
IMAP, SMTP and more.
|
|
