CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERT(3) Introduction to Library Functions

NAME

CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERT - HTTPS proxy client certificate

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERT, char *cert);

DESCRIPTION

This option is for connecting to an HTTPS proxy, not an HTTPS server.

Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string as parameter. The string
should be the filename of your client certificate used to connect to
the HTTPS proxy. The default format is "P12" on Secure Transport and
"PEM" on other engines, and can be changed with
CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERTTYPE(3).

With Secure Transport, this can also be the nickname of the
certificate you wish to authenticate with as it is named in the
security database. If you want to use a file from the current
directory, please precede it with "./" prefix, in order to avoid
confusion with a nickname.

When using a client certificate, you most likely also need to provide
a private key with CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY(3).

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

This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS,
IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

This option works only with the following TLS backends: GnuTLS,
OpenSSL, Schannel, Secure Transport, mbedTLS and wolfSSL

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "https://proxy");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERT, "client.pem");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY, "key.pem");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
