API Requests using the HTTP protocol through the Curl library.
This was a very basic option for using cURL. The use of Guzzle is recommended.
This library is supported by PHP versions 5.6 or higher and is compatible with HHVM versions 3.0 or higher.
The preferred way to install this extension is through Composer.
To install PHP Curl library, simply:
composer require Josantonius/Curl
The previous command will only install the necessary files, if you prefer to download the entire source code you can use:
composer require Josantonius/Curl --prefer-source
You can also clone the complete repository with Git:
git clone https://github.com/Josantonius/PHP-Curl.git
Or install it manually:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Josantonius/PHP-Curl/master/src/Curl.php
