简介

大多数在linux下的开发者，都会用到curl这个命令行工具。对于进行restful api的测试等，非常方便。其实，这个工具还提供了一个C的开发库，可以很方便的在C语言开发环境下完成基于http的请求和响应交互，高效的开发基于http/smtp等的网络应用程序

#define X_LOG_DEBUG(Z, X...) \printf("[%s %s] [%s.%d] [%s] [DEBUG] " Z "\n", __DATE__, __TIME__, __FILE__, __LINE__, __FUNCTION__, ##X)

环境准备

下载并安装curl的开发包

yum install libcurl-devel.x86_64

在线资源

开发过程中主要参考CURL官方介绍及API参考文档 | link

示例代码

多余的话就不多说了，直接上示例代码，通过代码中的注释来说明开发过程。

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "../include/xhttp.h"/*
-  这个是一个回调函数，主要用于curl在执行过程中，当有被请求的数据到达时，被调用来向-curl_easy_setopt设置的chunk中写入数据。这个回调函数在curl_easy_perform执行完成前会被调用多次。当执行完成后，从chunk中取出这次交互返回的数据。

static size_t cb_write_data(void *data, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *clientp)
{size_t realsize = size * nmemb;http_response *mem = (http_response *)clientp;char *ptr = realloc(mem->response, mem->size + realsize + 1);if(ptr == NULL)return 0;  /* out of response_st! */mem->response = ptr;memcpy(&(mem->response[mem->size]), data, realsize);mem->size += realsize;mem->response[mem->size] = 0;return realsize;
}/*这个是向外发布的一个函数，调用的方式示例如下：char* payload = "{\"code\":\"\",\"codeUuid\":\"\",\"loginName\":\"user@domain\",\"loginPwd\":\"xxxxxxxx\"}";http_response *resp = http_post("https://local.domain/admin-api/session/login", NULL, payload);使用完返回数据后，记得释放resp->reesponse，避免内存漏。

测试调用

int main(int argc, char** argv) {char* payload = "{\"code\":\"\",\"codeUuid\":\"\",\"loginName\":\"user@domain\",\"loginPwd\":\"xxxxxxxx\"}";http_response *resp = http_post("https://local.domain/admin-api/session/login", NULL, payload);printf("http_response [%d] is: %s\n", resp->size, resp->response);char *tokenVal = strstr(resp->response, "xaccessToken");int end = strlen(tokenVal);*(tokenVal + end-2) = 0;char** token_arr;__strtok_r(tokenVal, ":", token_arr);char* replacementKey = strtrim(token_arr[0], '\"');exit(0)
}
