curlSetOpt: Set values for the CURL options

Description

This function allows us to set values for the possible options in the CURL data structure that defines the HTTP request. These options persist across calls in the CURLHandle object.

Usage

curlSetOpt(..., .opts = list(), curl = getCurlHandle())

Arguments

...
a named list of curl options to set after the handle has been created.
.opts
a named list or CURLOptions object identifying the curl options for the handle.
curl
the CURLHandle object created earlier via a call to getCurlHandle or dupCurlHandle

Value

  • An integer value giving the status of the return. This should be 0 as if there was an error in the libcurl mechiansim, we will throw it there.
