Curl objects have the following methods:
close() -> NoneCorresponds to
curl_easy_cleanup in libcurl.
This method is automatically called by pycurl when a Curl object no longer has
any references to it, but can also be called explicitly.
perform() -> NoneCorresponds to
curl_easy_perform in libcurl.
reset() -> NoneCorresponds to
curl_easy_reset in libcurl.
setopt(option, value) -> NoneCorresponds to
curl_easy_setopt in libcurl, where
option is specified with the CURLOPT_* constants in libcurl,
except that the CURLOPT_ prefix has been removed. The type for
value depends on the option, and can be either a string,
integer, long integer, file objects, lists, or functions.
Example usage:
import pycurl c = pycurl.Curl() c.setopt(pycurl.URL, "http://www.python.org/") c.setopt(pycurl.HTTPHEADER, ["Accept:"]) import StringIO b = StringIO.StringIO() c.setopt(pycurl.WRITEFUNCTION, b.write) c.setopt(pycurl.FOLLOWLOCATION, 1) c.setopt(pycurl.MAXREDIRS, 5) c.perform() print b.getvalue() ...
getinfo(option) -> ResultCorresponds to
curl_easy_getinfo in libcurl, where
option is the same as the CURLINFO_* constants in libcurl,
except that the CURLINFO_ prefix has been removed.
Result contains an integer, float or string, depending on
which option is given. The getinfo method should
not be called unless perform has been called and
finished.
Example usage:
import pycurl c = pycurl.Curl() c.setopt(pycurl.URL, "http://sf.net") c.setopt(pycurl.FOLLOWLOCATION, 1) c.perform() print c.getinfo(pycurl.HTTP_CODE), c.getinfo(pycurl.EFFECTIVE_URL) ... --> 200 "http://sourceforge.net/"
errstr() -> StringReturns the internal libcurl error buffer of this handle as a string.
