Function std.net.curl.get

HTTP/FTP get content.

Prototype

T[] get(Conn, T)(
  const(char)[] url,
  Conn conn = Conn()
)
if (isCurlConn!Conn && (is(T == char) || is(T == ubyte)));

Parameters

NameDescription
url resource to get
conn connection to use e.g. FTP or HTTP. The default AutoProtocol will guess connection type and create a new instance for this call only. The template parameter T specifies the type to return. Possible values are char and ubyte to return char[] or ubyte[]. If asking for char, content will be converted from the connection character set (specified in HTTP response headers or FTP connection properties, both ISO-8859-1 by default) to UTF-8.

Example

import std.net.curl;
auto content = get("d-lang.appspot.com/testUrl2");

Returns

A T[] range containing the content of the resource pointed to by the URL.

Throws

CurlException on error.
