CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS(3)				     curl_easy_setopt options					CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS - set protocols allowed to redirect to SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS, long bitmask); DESCRIPTION
Pass a long that holds a bitmask of CURLPROTO_* defines. If used, this bitmask limits what protocols libcurl may use in a transfer that it follows to in a redirect when CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION(3) is enabled. This allows you to limit specific transfers to only be allowed to use a subset of protocols in redirections. Protocols denied by CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS(3) are not overridden by this option. By default libcurl will allow all protocols on redirect except several disabled for security reasons: Since 7.19.4 FILE and SCP are dis- abled, and since 7.40.0 SMB and SMBS are also disabled. CURLPROTO_ALL enables all protocols on redirect, including those disabled for secu- rity. These are the available protocol defines: CURLPROTO_DICT CURLPROTO_FILE CURLPROTO_FTP CURLPROTO_FTPS CURLPROTO_GOPHER CURLPROTO_HTTP CURLPROTO_HTTPS CURLPROTO_IMAP CURLPROTO_IMAPS CURLPROTO_LDAP CURLPROTO_LDAPS CURLPROTO_POP3 CURLPROTO_POP3S CURLPROTO_RTMP CURLPROTO_RTMPE CURLPROTO_RTMPS CURLPROTO_RTMPT CURLPROTO_RTMPTE CURLPROTO_RTMPTS CURLPROTO_RTSP CURLPROTO_SCP CURLPROTO_SFTP CURLPROTO_SMB CURLPROTO_SMBS CURLPROTO_SMTP CURLPROTO_SMTPS CURLPROTO_TELNET CURLPROTO_TFTP DEFAULT
All protocols except for FILE, SCP and since 7.40.0 SMB and SMBS. PROTOCOLS
All EXAMPLE
curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { /* pass in the URL from an external source */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, argv[1]); /* only allow redirects to HTTP and HTTPS URLs */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS, CURLPROTO_HTTP | CURLPROTO_HTTPS); /* Perform the request */ curl_easy_perform(curl); } AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.19.4, before then it would follow all protocols. RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. SEE ALSO

CURLOPT_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL(3)				     curl_easy_setopt options				       CURLOPT_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL - default protocol to use if the URL is missing a scheme name SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL, char *protocol); DESCRIPTION
This option tells libcurl to use protocol if the URL is missing a scheme name. Use one of these protocol (scheme) names: dict, file, ftp, ftps, gopher, http, https, imap, imaps, ldap, ldaps, pop3, pop3s, rtsp, scp, sftp, smb, smbs, smtp, smtps, telnet, tftp An unknown or unsupported protocol causes error CURLE_UNSUPPORTED_PROTOCOL when libcurl parses a schemeless URL. Parsing happens when curl_easy_perform(3) or curl_multi_perform(3) is called. The protocols supported by libcurl will vary depending on how it was built. Use curl_version_info(3) if you need a list of protocol names supported by the build of libcurl that you are using. This option does not change the default proxy protocol (http). Without this option libcurl would make a guess based on the host, see CURLOPT_URL(3) for details. The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option. DEFAULT
NULL (make a guess based on the host) PROTOCOLS
All EXAMPLE
curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { /* set a URL without a scheme */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "example.com"); /* set the default protocol (scheme) for schemeless URLs */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL, "https"); /* Perform the request */ curl_easy_perform(curl); } AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.45.0 RETURN VALUE
CURLE_OK if the option is supported. CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space. CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if the option is not supported. SEE ALSO
