HTTP client request class 2008.01.03 (Default branch)
Image HTTP client is a PHP class to make HTTP requests. It can establish connections via a SOCKS server, send requests via a proxy server, and establish secure connections (HTTPS) with optional SSL client certificates. It supports HTTP authentication mechanisms like HTTP Basic, HTTP Digest, and NTLM (Windows or Samba). It submits POST requests with user-defined form values, file uploading, or with user-defined request bodies. It handles cookies and automatic redirection handling. There is an addon class to log in to Yahoo and execute actions on behalf of the user, like exporting the address book or sending invitations to Yahoo groups. License: BSD License (original) Changes:
This release introduces the support to establish connections via a SOCKS 5 server. A new option was added to avoid using the Curl library when sending SSL requests.Image

phttpget

PHTTPGET(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					       PHTTPGET(8)

NAME

     phttpget -- retrieve multiple files via pipelined HTTP

SYNOPSIS

     phttpget server file ...

DESCRIPTION

     The phttpget utility is a minimalist pipelined HTTP client, which is used to retrieve multiple files from one server, and saves the down-
     loaded files in the current working directory, using the last portion of their download path as file names.

     By making several "in flight" HTTP requests, it can dramatically increase performance when a large number of small files need to be down-
     loaded.

     The freebsd-update(8) and portnap(8) tools use phttpget to download binary patch files.

ENVIRONMENT

     HTTP_PROXY       URL of the proxy to use for HTTP requests.

     HTTP_PROXY_AUTH  Authorization parameters for the HTTP proxy.

     HTTP_USER_AGENT  The User-Agent string to use for HTTP requests.  The default is ``phttpget/0.1''.

     HTTP_TIMEOUT     Timeout for HTTP request in seconds.

SEE ALSO

     fetch(1), freebsd-update(8), portsnap(8)

AUTHORS

     The phttpget utility was written by Colin Percival <cperciva@FreeBSD.org> for use with portsnap(8) and later with freebsd-update(8).  This
     manual page was written by Xin LI <delphij@FreeBSD.org>.
