Has this ext stopped working? I can't seem to upload any files now.

how to get page content by using this extension?

I am still trying to do this using this extension.
At the moment I am using CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION to detour the stream into my own callback writing this into a predefined string buffer (which is quite huge).
But now that I think about it I'm afraid there is a way easier way to get the whole webpage into a string, maybe using some call during "OnComplete"?
Anyone?

I'm trying to send simple POST request and get response as string:

public makeReq()
{
    new Handle:curl = curl_easy_init();
    
    //new String:curl_post_params[512];
    //Format(curl_post_params, sizeof(curl_post_params), "apikey=%s&name=%s", KILL_API_KEY, KILL_API_KEY);
    
    if(curl != INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
        CURL_DEFAULT_OPT(curl);
        //curl_easy_setopt_handle(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, mycallback);
        //curl_easy_setopt_int(curl, CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY, 1);
        //curl_easy_setopt_string(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, curl_post_params);
        curl_easy_setopt_string(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://t.local/index.php");
        //curl_easy_setopt_int(curl, CURLOPT_PORT, 80);
        curl_easy_perform_thread(curl, ExecCURL);
        //ExecCURL(curl,5);
    } else {
        PrintCreatecUrlError(5);
    }
}

public ExecCURL(Handle:curl, CURLcode: code, any:data)
{
    if(curl != INVALID_HANDLE && code != CURLE_OK)
    {
        new String:error_buffer[256];
        curl_easy_strerror(code, error_buffer, sizeof(error_buffer));
        PrintTestCaseDebug(5, "FAIL - %s", error_buffer);
        CloseHandle(curl);
        return;
    }

    // (Handle:hndl, CURL_OnSend:send_callback, CURL_OnReceive:receive_callback, CURL_OnComplete:complete_callback, SendRecv_Act:act, send_timeout, recv_timeout, recv_buffer_Size = 1024, any:value=0);
    //(curl, OnReceive, current_test);
    curl_easy_send_recv(curl, OnSend, OnReceive, OnComplete, SendRecv_Act_GOTO_SEND, 5000, 5000, 1024);
}

public SendRecv_Act:OnSend(Handle:hndl, CURLcode: code, const last_sent_dataSize)
{
    PrintToServer("OnSend called");
    
    if(hndl != INVALID_HANDLE && code != CURLE_OK)
    {
        new String:error_buffer[256];
        curl_easy_strerror(code, error_buffer, sizeof(error_buffer));
        PrintTestCaseDebug(5, "FAIL - %s", error_buffer);
        CloseHandle(hndl);
        return SendRecv_Act_GOTO_END;
    }
    
    return SendRecv_Act_GOTO_RECV;
}

public OnComplete(Handle:hndl, CURLcode: code , any:data)
{

}

public SendRecv_Act:OnReceive(Handle:hndl, CURLcode: code, const String:receiveData[], const dataSize)
{
    PrintToServer("OnReceive called");

    //new current_test = data;
    if(hndl != INVALID_HANDLE && code != CURLE_OK)
    {
        new String:error_buffer[256];
        curl_easy_strerror(code, error_buffer, sizeof(error_buffer));
        PrintTestCaseDebug(5, "FAIL - %s", error_buffer);
        CloseHandle(hndl);
        return SendRecv_Act_GOTO_END;
    }
    
    //PrintToChatAll("curl_recive: %s %s", data, current_test);
    PrintToServer("curl_recive: %s", receiveData);
    
    return SendRecv_Act_GOTO_END;
}

But every time i get:

OnSend called [CURL Test #5] FAIL - Failed sending data to the peer

Can someone help please? I have no more ideas...

[Mister_Magotchi]

I don't believe it's the cause of your error, but I believe you need to work with that "CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION" callback if you want to write your data directly to a string rather than to a file.

[mukunda]

Register a library for this please!

Hello everybody. Sorry, my English is bad. I have some problem with curl, more exactly with function curl_easy_perform_thread. I wanna to execute 1000 curl requestes. How i did it. At first i wrote my own plugin, but i could do this, because when i am creating more that ~400-500 curles and they doesn't want to execute. Then i downloaded curl_examples "curl_write_function.sp". and when i tried again to did it, on ~400-500 time it was broken again. Can you explain please, where is my error and how to solve it. Thanks. Sorry again for my English:#

I created curls in Timer
curl_write_function.sp

What are you trying to do exactly? Also we can't help you without the code you're using.

[edit]

Are you getting any errors or anything?

[puga4off]

i have very interesting result. i wrote this functions to know what is happening with curls.

PHP Code:

MyCurlCreateHandle()
{
    new Handle:curl = curl_easy_init();
    PrintToServer("curl address %d", curl);
    return curl;
}

MyDeleteCurlHandle(Handle:curl)
{
  PrintToServer("delete curl address %d", curl);
  CloseHandle(curl);
} 


And i noticed, that after 500 times creating and using function "curl_easy_perform_thread" sourcemod doesn't want to delete curls handles, only create. and then ofcourse after creating some handles there are memory leak("out of memory"). The question is why sourcemod doesn't want to execute curl by threads. I tested and found if i executed curl without threads , it works. but you understand, that i can't do it Please help

I'm still wondering why the webternet extension (which is in the sourcemod source code under extensions/curl) doesn't have a plugin API of its own.
