✨ GNURLOPT_S...PI_SERVICE(3) ✨

okay so this page lives in the curl_easy_setopt options manual set, and it's all about one very specific SOCKS5 proxy auth setting. iykyk 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

CURLOPT_SOCKS5_GSSAPI_SERVICE - SOCKS5 proxy authentication service name ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <gnurl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SOCKS5_GSSAPI_SERVICE,
char *name);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Deprecated since 7.49.0. Use CURLOPT_PROXY_SERVICE_NAME(3) instead, bestie — that's the replacement era 💅

Pass a char * as parameter to a string holding the name of the service. The default service name for a SOCKS5 server is "rcmd". This option allows you to change it.

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

⭐ DEFAULT ⭐

See above 👀

🌈 PROTOCOLS 🌈

CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "socks5://proxy");
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SOCKS5_GSSAPI_SERVICE, "rcmd-special");
  ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
  curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}

👑 AVAILABILITY 👑

Added in 7.19.4, deprecated in 7.49.0 ⏳

🍓 RETURN VALUE 🍓

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space. so yeah: supported = slay, unknown option = not supported, out of memory = the heap ran out 😭
