Written by Jeff Pohlmeyer Requires libevent version 2 and a (POSIX?) system that has mkfifo(). This is an adaptation of libcurl's "hipev.c" and libevent's "event-test.c" sample programs. When running, the program creates the named pipe "hiper.fifo" Whenever there is input into the fifo, the program reads the input as a list of URL's and creates some new easy handles to fetch each URL via the curl_multi "hiper" API. Thus, you can try a single URL: % echo http://www.yahoo.com > hiper.fifo Or a whole bunch of them: % cat my-url-list > hiper.fifo The fifo buffer is handled almost instantly, so you can even add more URL's while the previous requests are still being downloaded. Note: For the sake of simplicity, URL length is limited to 1023 char's ! This is purely a demo app, all retrieved data is simply discarded by the write callback. */ #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <time.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/poll.h> #include <curl/curl.h> #include <event2/event.h> #include <event2/event_struct.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <errno.h> #include <sys/cdefs.h> #define MSG_OUT stdout /* Send info to stdout, change to stderr if you want */ /* Global information, common to all connections */ typedef struct _GlobalInfo { struct event_base *evbase; struct event fifo_event; struct event timer_event; CURLM *multi; int still_running; FILE *input; int stopped; } GlobalInfo; /* Information associated with a specific easy handle */ typedef struct _ConnInfo { CURL *easy; char *url; GlobalInfo *global; char error[CURL_ERROR_SIZE]; } ConnInfo; /* Information associated with a specific socket */ typedef struct _SockInfo { curl_socket_t sockfd; CURL *easy; int action; long timeout; struct event ev; GlobalInfo *global; } SockInfo; #define mycase(code) \ case code: s = __STRING(code) /* Die if we get a bad CURLMcode somewhere */ static void mcode_or_die(const char *where, CURLMcode code) { if(CURLM_OK != code) { const char *s; switch(code) { mycase(CURLM_BAD_HANDLE); break; mycase(CURLM_BAD_EASY_HANDLE); break; mycase(CURLM_OUT_OF_MEMORY); break; mycase(CURLM_INTERNAL_ERROR); break; mycase(CURLM_UNKNOWN_OPTION); break; mycase(CURLM_LAST); break; default: s = "CURLM_unknown"; break; mycase(CURLM_BAD_SOCKET); fprintf(MSG_OUT, "ERROR: %s returns %s\n", where, s); /* ignore this error */ return; } fprintf(MSG_OUT, "ERROR: %s returns %s\n", where, s); exit(code); } } /* Update the event timer after curl_multi library calls */ static int multi_timer_cb(CURLM *multi, long timeout_ms, GlobalInfo *g) { struct timeval timeout; (void)multi; timeout.tv_sec = timeout_ms/1000; timeout.tv_usec = (timeout_ms%1000)*1000; fprintf(MSG_OUT, "multi_timer_cb: Setting timeout to %ld ms\n", timeout_ms); /* * if timeout_ms is -1, just delete the timer * * For all other values of timeout_ms, this should set or *update* the timer * to the new value */ if(timeout_ms == -1) evtimer_del(&g->timer_event); else /* includes timeout zero */ evtimer_add(&g->timer_event, &timeout); return 0; } /* Check for completed transfers, and remove their easy handles */ static void check_multi_info(GlobalInfo *g) { char *eff_url; CURLMsg *msg; int msgs_left; ConnInfo *conn; CURL *easy; CURLcode res; fprintf(MSG_OUT, "REMAINING: %d\n", g->still_running); while((msg = curl_multi_info_read(g->multi, &msgs_left))) { if(msg->msg == CURLMSG_DONE) { easy = msg->easy_handle; res = msg->data.result; curl_easy_getinfo(easy, CURLINFO_PRIVATE, &conn); curl_easy_getinfo(easy, CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL, &eff_url); fprintf(MSG_OUT, "DONE: %s => (%d) %s\n", eff_url, res, conn->error); curl_multi_remove_handle(g->multi, easy); free(conn->url); curl_easy_cleanup(easy); free(conn); } } if(g->still_running == 0 && g->stopped) event_base_loopbreak(g->evbase); } /* Called by libevent when we get action on a multi socket */ static void event_cb(int fd, short kind, void *userp) { GlobalInfo *g = (GlobalInfo*) userp; CURLMcode rc; int action = ((kind & EV_READ) ?

Notice
This source code example is simplified and ignores return
codes and error checks to a large extent. We do this to highlight the libcurl
function calls and related options and reduce unrelated code.
A real-world application will of course properly check every return value and exit correctly at the first serious error.
