NAME

Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch::CurlCommand - Plugin for fetching files using curl

VERSION

version 2.28

SYNOPSIS

 use alienfile;
 
 share {
   start_url 'https://www.openssl.org/source/';
   plugin 'Fetch::CurlCommand';
 };

DESCRIPTION

This plugin provides a fetch based on the curl command. It works with other fetch plugins (that is, the first one which succeeds will be used). Most of the time the best plugin to use will be Alien::Build::Plugin::Download::Negotiate, but for some SSL bootstrapping it may be desirable to try curl first.

Protocols supported: http, https

https support requires that curl was built with SSL support.

PROPERTIES

curl_command

The full path to the curl command. The default is usually correct.

ssl

Ignored by this plugin. Provided for compatibility with some other fetch plugins.

METHODS

protocol_ok

 my $bool = $plugin->protocol_ok($protocol);
 my $bool = Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch::CurlCommand->protocol_ok($protocol);
