.TH CURLOPT_MIMEPOST 3 "2025-06-27" libcurl
.SH NAME
CURLOPT_MIMEPOST \- send data from mime structure
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>
curl_mime *mime;
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MIMEPOST, mime);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a mime handle previously obtained from \fIcurl_mime_init(3)\fP.
This setting is supported by the HTTP protocol to post forms and by the
SMTP and IMAP protocols to provide the email data to send/upload.
This option is the preferred way of posting an HTTP form, replacing and
extending the \fICURLOPT_HTTPPOST(3)\fP option.
When setting \fICURLOPT_MIMEPOST(3)\fP to NULL, libcurl resets the request
type for HTTP to the default to disable the POST. Typically that would mean it
is reset to GET. Instead you should set a desired request method explicitly.
.SH PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects http, imap and smtp
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_mime *multipart = curl_mime_init(curl);
if(multipart) {
curl_mimepart *part = curl_mime_addpart(multipart);
curl_mime_name(part, "name");
curl_mime_data(part, "daniel", CURL_ZERO_TERMINATED);
part = curl_mime_addpart(multipart);
curl_mime_name(part, "project");
curl_mime_data(part, "curl", CURL_ZERO_TERMINATED);
part = curl_mime_addpart(multipart);
curl_mime_name(part, "logotype-image");
curl_mime_filedata(part, "curl.png");
/* Set the form info */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_MIMEPOST, multipart);
curl_easy_perform(curl); /* post away */
curl_mime_free(multipart); /* free the post data */
}
}
}
