A collection of ISO C binding interfaces to libcurl ≥ 8.10.0 for Fortran 2008. The library has been tested with GNU Fortran 14. See COVERAGE for an overview of bound procedures.
For a user-friendly, high-level HTTP library based on these bindings, see http-client.
Install libcurl with development headers. On FreeBSD, run:
# pkg install ftp/curl
On Debian, instead:
# apt-get install libcurl4 libcurl4-openssl-dev
Clone the repository, then run make to build and install the interfaces to
/opt:
$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/interkosmos/fortran-curl
$ cd fortran-curl/
$ make
$ make install PREFIX=/opt
You can override the default compilers by passing the CC and FC arguments,
for example:
$ make CC=icx FC=ifx
On Linux, you may have to change the prefix to /usr:
$ make PREFIX=/usr
Link your Fortran application against /opt/lib/libfortran-curl.a -lcurl.
Examples are provided in directory examples/:
- dict queries a DICT server on TCP port 2628.
- download fetches a remote file.
- getinfo prints request-related information to console.
- gopher prints the contents of a remote Gopher map file.
- http makes an HTTP GET request.
- imap examines the
INBOXof an IMAP mailbox (SSL). - mqtt posts a message to an MQTT topic.
- multi makes multiple HTTP requests at once.
- post makes an HTTP POST request.
- smtp sends an e-mail via SMTP (SSL).
- url demonstrates the URL API.
- version outputs cURL version information.
Build an example with:
$ make <name>
Build all by running make examples.
This project supports the Fortran Package Manager (FPM). To build the project with FPM, run:
$ fpm build --profile release
The example programs are available with the fpm run --example command.
You can add fortran-curl to your fpm.toml with:
