Curlx

Curlx is a PHP5 wrapper class for cURL functions.

Examples

• Simplified GET request (to fetch a web page, similar to file_get_contents())

$curlx = new Curlx;
$web_page = $curlx->fetch('http://example.com/');

• Simplified POST request

$curlx = new Curlx;
$web_page = $curlx->fetch('http://example.com/', array('username' => 'User', 'password' => 'pa55word'));

• Site login

// Imagine you're using a social networking site on example.com, 
// and you want your PHP script to log in and update your profile for you.
$curlx = new Curlx;
// This file will be used whenever there's cookie data to be stored or sent to the server.
$curlx->cookie('my_cookie.text');

// Send a POST request containing your username and password to the login page
$response = $curlx->fetch('http://example.com/login', array('username' => 'User', 'password' => 'pa55word'));

// Randomly pick a mood for your new profile status
$moods = array('happy', 'sad', 'angry');
$current_mood = $moods[mt_rand(0, count($moods) - 1)];
$status = "I am $current_mood today!";

// Do a status update on your example.com profile
$response = $curlx->fetch('http://example.com/profile', array('status' => $status));
