NAME¶

CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEYTYPE - type of the proxy private key file

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEYTYPE, char *type);

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 format of your private key. Supported formats are "PEM", "DER" and "ENG".

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.

PROTOCOLS¶

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

This option works only with the following TLS backends: BearSSL, OpenSSL 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_SSLKEYTYPE, "PEM");


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");


    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);


    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);


  }
}

AVAILABILITY¶

Added in curl 7.52.0

RETURN VALUE¶

Returns CURLE_OK if TLS is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
