How to avoid "Too many arguments" error, when passing a long String literal as input to a command?
Hi,
I am using awk here.
Inside an awk script, I have a variable which contains a very long XML data in string format (500kb).
I want to pass this data (as argument) to curl command using system function.
But getting Too many arguments error due to length of string data(payloadBlock).
I have tried the below ways, but both error out with code: 127 (Too many arguments)
Awk-extracted value inside the variable(payloadBlock) looks like:
payloadBlock="<?xml?><root> ... ... (lot of xml data) ... ... </root>";
Could you advise any better way to do this? NOTE: I have to invoke curl from within awk only, as I am computing this string data inside awk script.

curlopt_copypostfields
CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS(3) curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS(3)NAME
CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS - have libcurl copy data to POST
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS, char *data);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a char * as parameter, which should be the full data to post in a HTTP POST operation. It behaves as the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS(3) option,
but the original data is instead copied by the library, allowing the application to overwrite the original data after setting this option.
Because data are copied, care must be taken when using this option in conjunction with CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE(3) or CURLOPT_POSTFIELD-
SIZE_LARGE(3): If the size has not been set prior to CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS(3), the data is assumed to be a zero terminated string; else
the stored size informs the library about the byte count to copy. In any case, the size must not be changed after CURLOPT_COPYPOST-
FIELDS(3), unless another CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS(3) or CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS(3) option is issued.
DEFAULT
NULL
PROTOCOLS
HTTP(S)
EXAMPLE
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
char local_buffer[1024]="data to send";
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com");
/* size of the data to copy from the buffer and send in the request */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE, 12L);
/* send data from the local stack */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS, local_buffer);
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.17.1
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
