CURLOPT_HA...Y_CLIENT_IP(3) Library Functions ManualCURLOPT_HA...Y_CLIENT_IP(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_HAPROXY_CLIENT_IP - set HAProxy PROXY protocol client IP
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HAPROXY_CLIENT_IP,
char *client_ip);
DESCRIPTION
When this parameter is set to a valid IPv4 or IPv6 numerical address,
the library sends this address as client address in the HAProxy PROXY
protocol v1 header at beginning of the connection.
This option is an alternative to CURLOPT_HAPROXYPROTOCOL(3) as that one
cannot use a specified address.
Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the
previous ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting
this option.
DEFAULT
NULL, no HAProxy header is sent
PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects all supported protocols
EXAMPLE
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode ret;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HAPROXY_CLIENT_IP, "1.1.1.1");
ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
AVAILABILITY
Added in curl 8.2.0
RETURN VALUE
curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
