curl在linux下是一个传输数据工具,可以向服务端提交或获取数据。支持HTTP/HTTPS/FTP/FTPS/TFTP/DICT/TELNET/LDAP/FILE,提供代理、用户验证、ftp上传、SSL连接等功能。curl的传输功能都有libcurl具体实现。
其具体命令行操作可以man curl,下面介绍使用libcurl请求url。
#include <curl/curl.h>
bool GetHttpResult(const string& url, string& result){
cout << "GetHttpResult --> " << url << endl;
CURL* handle = NULL;
try{
handle = curl_easy_init();
curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL, 1);
curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, WriteCallback);
curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS, 1000);//连接服务器和发送请求的超时设置,单位是毫秒
//curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS, 2000);
curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_WRITEDATA, &result);
curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_URL, url.c_str());//Get请求
CURLcode ret = curl_easy_perform(handle);
curl_easy_cleanup(handle);
if ( 0 < ret ){
result.clear();
cout << "Load Url Error! " << url << " ErrorType: " << ret;
return false;
}
} catch (std::exception e){
cout << "Http Request Error!";
curl_easy_cleanup(handle);
return false;
}
return true;
}
size_t WriteCallback(void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *data) {
string *buff = (string *) data;
buff->append((char *) ptr, size * nmemb);
return size * nmemb;
}
int main() {
CURLcode re = curl_global_init( CURL_GLOBAL_ALL );
string url = "http://www.baidu.com";
string result;
bool b = GetHttpResult(url, result);
if (b) {
cout << "success" << endl;
cout << result << endl;
} else {
cout << "fail" << endl;
}
curl_global_cleanup();
return 1;
}
注:
CURLcode curl_global_init(long flags)/curl_global_cleanup(): libcurl库的初始化和关闭,两个函数不是线程安全的,所以要在主线程中进行一次初始化和清除。
