| .TH CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR 3 "17 Jun 2014" "libcurl 7.37.0" "curl_easy_setopt options" |
| .SH NAME |
| CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR \- file name to store cookies to |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| #include <curl/curl.h> |
| |
| CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, char *filename); |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| Pass a \fIfilename\fP as char *, zero terminated. This will make libcurl write |
| all internally known cookies to the specified file when |
| \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP is called. If no cookies are known, no file will be |
| created. Specify "-" as filename to instead have the cookies written to |
| stdout. Using this option also enables cookies for this session, so if you for |
| example follow a location it will make matching cookies get sent accordingly. |
| |
| Note that libcurl doesn't read any cookies from the cookie jar. If you want to |
| read cookies from a file, use \fICURLOPT_COOKIEFILE(3)\fP. |
| |
| If the cookie jar file can't be created or written to (when the |
| \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP is called), libcurl will not and cannot report an |
| error for this. Using \fICURLOPT_VERBOSE(3)\fP or |
| \fICURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION(3)\fP will get a warning to display, but that is the |
| only visible feedback you get about this possibly lethal situation. |
| |
| Since 7.43.0 cookies that were imported in the Set-Cookie format without a |
| domain name are not exported by this option. |
| .SH DEFAULT |
| NULL |
| .SH PROTOCOLS |
| HTTP |
| .SH EXAMPLE |
| TODO |
| .SH AVAILABILITY |
| Along with HTTP |
| .SH RETURN VALUE |
| Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or |
| CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space. |
