# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY - pre-proxy host to use
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY, char *preproxy);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Set the *preproxy* to use for the upcoming request. The parameter should be a
|
|
char * to a null-terminated string holding the hostname or dotted numerical IP
|
|
address. A numerical IPv6 address must be written within [brackets].
|
|
|
|
To specify port number in this string, append :[port] to the end of the host
|
|
name. The proxy's port number may optionally be specified with the separate
|
|
option CURLOPT_PROXYPORT(3). If not specified, libcurl defaults to using
|
|
port 1080 for proxies.
|
|
|
|
A pre proxy is a SOCKS proxy that curl connects to before it connects to the
|
|
HTTP(S) proxy specified in the CURLOPT_PROXY(3) option. The pre proxy
|
|
can only be a SOCKS proxy.
|
|
|
|
The pre proxy string should be prefixed with [scheme]:// to specify which kind
|
|
of socks is used. Use socks4://, socks4a://, socks5:// or socks5h:// (the last
|
|
one to enable socks5 and asking the proxy to do the resolving, also known as
|
|
*CURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME* type) to request the specific SOCKS version to
|
|
be used. Otherwise SOCKS4 is used as default.
|
|
|
|
Setting the pre proxy string to "" (an empty string) explicitly disables the
|
|
use of a pre proxy.
|
|
|
|
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
# DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
Default is NULL, meaning no pre proxy is used.
|
|
|
|
When you set a hostname to use, do not assume that there is any particular
|
|
single port number used widely for proxies. Specify it!
|
|
|
|
# PROTOCOLS
|
|
|
|
All except file://. Note that some protocols do not work well over proxy.
|
|
|
|
# EXAMPLE
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
int main(void)
|
|
{
|
|
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();

if(curl) {
|
|
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/file.txt");
|
|
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY, "socks4://socks-proxy:1080");
|
|
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://proxy:80");
|
|
curl_easy_perform(curl);
|
|
}
