This posts data, similar to the other --data options with the exception
|
|
that this performs URL-encoding.
|
|
|
|
To be CGI-compliant, the <data> part should begin with a *name* followed
|
|
by a separator and a content specification. The <data> part can be passed to
|
|
curl using one of the following syntaxes:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.IP "content"
|
|
This will make curl URL-encode the content and pass that on. Just be careful
|
|
so that the content doesn't contain any = or @ symbols, as that will then make
|
|
the syntax match one of the other cases below!
|
|
.IP "=content"
|
|
This will make curl URL-encode the content and pass that on. The preceding =
|
|
symbol is not included in the data.
|
|
.IP "name=content"
|
|
This will make curl URL-encode the content part and pass that on. Note that
|
|
the name part is expected to be URL-encoded already.
|
|
.IP "@filename"
|
|
This will make curl load data from the given file (including any newlines),
|
|
URL-encode that data and pass it on in the POST.
|
|
.IP "name@filename"
|
|
This will make curl load data from the given file (including any newlines),
|
|
URL-encode that data and pass it on in the POST. The name part gets an equal
|
|
sign appended, resulting in *name=urlencoded-file-content*. Note that the
|
|
name is expected to be URL-encoded already.
