README

A PHP cURL wrapper to make HTTP requests easier.

Requirements

PHP >= 7.1

Installation

Use composer to add the package to your dependencies:

composer require palmtree/curl

Usage

Basic Usage

You can use the static getContents method if you just want to retrieve a response body from a URL:

<?php
use Palmtree\Curl\Curl;

$contents = Curl::getContents('https://example.org');

If you want access to the response headers and body, create a new instance instead:

<?php
use Palmtree\Curl\Curl;

$curl = new Curl('https://example.org');

// Returns the response body when used as a string
echo $curl;

$response = $curl->getResponse();

$headers = $response->getHeaders();

$contentType = $response->getHeader('Content-Type');

$body = $response->getBody();

Advanced Usage

<?php
use Palmtree\Curl\Curl;

$curl = new Curl('https://example.org', [
    CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true,
]);

$curl->getRequest()->addHeader('Host', 'example.org');

try {
    $response = $curl->execute();
} catch(CurlErrorException $e) {
}

$headers = $response->getHeaders();
$body = $response->getBody();

if($response->is404()) {
    // handle 404 error
}

if($response->isOk()) {
    // response status code is in the 2xx range
}
