Before we can do anything with a cURL request, we need to first instantiate an instance of cURL - we can do this by calling the function curl_init();
Sample code for GET request:
// Get cURL resource
$curl = curl_init();
// Set some options - we are passing in a useragent too here
curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1,
CURLOPT_URL => 'http://testcURL.com/?item1=value&item2=value2',
CURLOPT_USERAGENT => 'Codular Sample cURL Request'
));
// Send the request & save response to $resp
$resp = curl_exec($curl);
// Close request to clear up some resources
curl_close($curl);
Sample code for POST request:
// Get cURL resource
$curl = curl_init();
// Set some options - we are passing in a useragent too here
curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1,
CURLOPT_URL => 'http://testcURL.com',
CURLOPT_USERAGENT => 'Codular Sample cURL Request',
CURLOPT_POST => 1,
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => array(
item1 => 'value',
item2 => 'value2'
)
));
// Send the request & save response to $resp
$resp = curl_exec($curl);
// Close request to clear up some resources
curl_close($curl);
