See more CURL Examples

This example demonstrates using variables located in the path and query params with the {{variable_name}} syntax. PHP ActiveX

<?php

$success = 0;

// Variables can occur in the path and query params.  
// Variable names are enclosed between {{ and }}

//  curl -X GET https://httpbin.org/{{verb}}?id={id_value}}
$targetCurl = 'curl -X GET https://httpbin.org/{{verb}}?id={{id_value}}';

$httpCurl = new COM("Chilkat.HttpCurl");

// Provide values for variables.
// In this example, "verb" is a path variable, and "id_value" is a query param variable.
$httpCurl->SetVar('verb','get');
$httpCurl->SetVar('id_value','123');

// Run the curl command.
$success = $httpCurl->DoYourThing($targetCurl);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $httpCurl->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

$responseJson = new COM("Chilkat.JsonObject");
$responseJson->EmitCompact = 0;

$statusCode = $httpCurl->StatusCode;
print 'response status code: ' . $statusCode . "\n";

$httpCurl->GetResponseJson($responseJson);
print $responseJson->emit() . "\n";

// Output:

// response status code: 200
