kidCurl: A Curl wrapper for kids!

A libcurl wrapper for simplified requests with a C++-style interface.

Disclaimer

The kidCurl wrapper is not meant for production, it is simply an example of how one could use libcurl.

Usage

You'll need libcurl already set up in your project in order to use this wrapper.

To start using the wrapper, include the include folder and you can start using kidCurl.hpp.

Example

GET Request:

#include <iostream>
#include <kidCurl.hpp>

#define URL "https://www.myexternalip.com/raw"

int main(void) {
	// Our request handler, we will use it to send our requests.
	kidCurl reqHandler;

	// Perform request
	auto req = reqHandler.Send(kidCurl::Type::GET, URL);
	if (req) {
		// Request's HTTP Status code.
		std::cout << "Status code: " << req->status_code << std::endl;	

		// Request's body.				
		std::cout << "\nBody: " << req->body << std::endl;			

		// Request's total time in milliseconds, divided by 1000 to get the value in seconds.					
		std::cout << "\nTotal time: " << (float)req->total_time / 1000 << std::endl;	

		// Print each header's name and it's value
		std::cout << "\nHeaders: \n";
		for (auto& header : req->headers)												
			std::cout << header.name << ": " << header.value << "\n";
	}

	// Wait for input
	std::cin.get();
	return 0;
