curlSetOpt {RCurl} | R Documentation |
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.
curlSetOpt(..., .opts = list(), curl = getCurlHandle(), .encoding = integer())
... |
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 |
.encoding |
an integer or a string that explicitly identifies the
encoding of the content that is returned by the HTTP server in its
response to our query. The possible strings are
‘UTF-8’ or ‘ISO-8859-1’
and the integers should be specified symbolically
as CE_UTF8 and CE_LATIN1 .
Note that, by default, the package attempts to process the header of
the HTTP response to determine the encoding. This argument is used
when such information is erroneous and the caller knows the correct
encoding.
|
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.
