curl_setopt_array

(PHP 5 >= 5.1.3, PHP 7, PHP 8)

curl_setopt_arrayMehrere Optionen für einen cURL-Transfer setzen

Beschreibung

curl_setopt_array(CurlHandle $handle, array $options): bool

Setzt mehrere Optionen für eine cURL-Session. Diese Funktion ist nützlich, um eine große Anzahl an Optionen zu setzen, ohne wiederholt curl_setopt() aufrufen zu müssen.

Parameter-Liste

handle

Ein von curl_init() zurückgegebenes cURL-Handle.

options

Ein array das die zu setzenden Optionen und die entsprechenden Werte enthält. Die Array-Schlüssel sollten gültige curl_setopt()-Konstanten resp. deren Integer- Equivalent sein.

Rückgabewerte

Gibt true zurück, wenn alle Optionen erfolgreich gesetzt werden konnten. Konnte eine Option nicht gesetzt werden wird unmittelbar false zurückgegeben und alle folgenden Optionen im Parameter options werden ignoriert.

Changelog

Version Beschreibung
8.0.0 handle erwartet nun eine CurlHandle-Instanz; vorher wurde eine Ressource erwartet.

Beispiele

Beispiel #1 Initialisierung einer cURL-Session und holen einer Webseite

<?php
// neues cURL-Handle erstellen
$ch = curl_init();

// URL und andere Optionen setzen
$options = array(CURLOPT_URL => 'http://www.example.com/',
CURLOPT_HEADER => false
);

curl_setopt_array($ch, $options);

// URL holen und an der Browser weitergeben
curl_exec($ch);

// cURL-Handle schließen und Systemresourcen freigeben
curl_close($ch);
?>

Anmerkungen

Hinweis:

Analog zu curl_setopt() wird ein für CURLOPT_POST übergebenes Array als multipart/form-data, ein URL-kodierter String als application/x-www-form-urlencoded kodiert.

If you are writing a mini API for your library, and if you are doing merging of options, remember to use the union operator (+) !

So something like this will definitely fail. This is because array_merge effectively resets all the keys in the array into running numbers:

<?php
function post($url, $options = array) {
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($ch, array_merge(array(
CURLOPT_HEADER => 1,
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1,
.....
)));
?>

Rather, this is the correct way of doing it:

<?php
function post($url, $options = array) {
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($ch, array(
CURLOPT_HEADER => 1,
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1,
.....
) + (array)
$options);
?>

In case that you need to read SSL page content from https with curl, this function can help you:

<?php

function get_web_page( $url,$curl_data )
{
$options = array(
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true, // return web page
CURLOPT_HEADER => false, // don't return headers
CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true, // follow redirects
CURLOPT_ENCODING => "", // handle all encodings
CURLOPT_USERAGENT => "spider", // who am i
CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER => true, // set referer on redirect
CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT => 120, // timeout on connect
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 120, // timeout on response
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10, // stop after 10 redirects
CURLOPT_POST => 1, // i am sending post data
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $curl_data, // this are my post vars
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST => 0, // don't verify ssl
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER => false, //
CURLOPT_VERBOSE => 1 //
);

$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt_array($ch,$options);
$content = curl_exec($ch);
$err = curl_errno($ch);
$errmsg = curl_error($ch) ;
$header = curl_getinfo($ch);
curl_close($ch);

// $header['errno'] = $err;
// $header['errmsg'] = $errmsg;
// $header['content'] = $content;
return $header;
}

$curl_data = "var1=60&var2=test";
$url = "https://www.example.com";
$response = get_web_page($url,$curl_data);

print
'<pre>';
print_r($response);

?>

This function does not mix with `curl_file_create` (`CURLFile` object) and `CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS`. Took me forever to figure out, but essentially I was getting an "Invalid filename" PHP warning and the files weren't being sent. I was able to correct the issue in a matter like so:

curl_setopt_array($curl, $curlOpts);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postFields);

I removed the `$postFields` value from `$curlOpts` and set it separately using `curl_setopt`.

You can use CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION with a callback inside an object. This makes is it easy to capture the headers for later use. For example:

<?php
class Test
{
public
$headers;

//...

public function exec($opts)
{
$this->headers = array();
$opts[CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION] = array($this, '_setHeader');
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($ch, $opts);
return
curl_exec($ch);
}

private function
_setHeader($ch, $header)
{
$this->headers[] = $header;
return
strlen($header);
}


}

$test = new Test();
$opts = array(
//... your curl opts here
);
$data = $test->exec($opts);
print_r($test->headers);
?>

...something like that

(This works in php v. 5.1.4)

You might be tempted to use array_merge with arrays where CURLOPT constants are the keys, but beware.

<?php
array_merge
([], [CURLOPT_FOO => "foo"], [CURLOPT_BAR => "bar"]);
?>

Since these constants are numeric, array_merge will happily reindex:

<?php
[0 => "foo", 1 => "bar"];
?>

Important note: the option CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT is *ignored* by curl_setopt_array(). You *must* use curl_setopt() to set this option.

(True in PHP v7.3.27 at least)

Once upon a time I've got an error like "Problem with the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?)". Since what I was doing was pretty much an administrative task with no actual security issues involved, I decided to disallow certificate validation and this is where the most interesting stuff began.

First I did it like this and it worked:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);

Next I thought, "But hey, I don't want any hardcoded stuff here. Let's use it in a configurable way!". And so I did something like this:

// in configuration
$CURL_OPTIONS = array(CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER => 0, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST => 0);

...........

// in place of two direct calls from earlier
curl_setopt_array($ch, $CURL_OPTIONS);

And I was so happy, there was no error anymore... and do you think I was happy for a long time? If so, then you're wrong. It stopped giving an error, while it didn't start to work!

I checked the actual data but they were allright. Then I thought: "Is it the curl_setopt_array() problem? Let's make it a cycle." The way it is mentioned in this help, actually.

foreach ($CURL_OPTIONS as $name => $value)
{
curl_setopt($ch, $name, $value);
}

And... it did not work the same way as with the curl_setopt_array() call. And the data were still allright...

So, if by chance you can't set CURL options with the curl_setopt_array() call, then now you know what to do and you know it is definitely not you who is to blame.

P.S.
By the way, the configuration used was:
Linux i-ween.com 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.73-2+deb7u3 x86_64
PHP Version 5.5.17

Starting in PHP 5.2.0, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION can't be set via curl_setopt_array() (or curl_setopt()) when either safe_mode is enabled or open_basedir is set. In these cases, the order of CURLOPT_* settings in the array can be important.
