.TH CURLINFO_FILETIME 3 "January 25, 2018" "libcurl 7.73.0" "curl_easy_getinfo options"
.SH NAME
CURLINFO_FILETIME \- get the remote time of the retrieved document
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_FILETIME, long *timep);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the remote time of the retrieved document
(in number of seconds since 1 jan 1970 in the GMT/UTC time zone). If you get
-1, it can be because of many reasons (it might be unknown, the server might
hide it or the server doesn't support the command that tells document time
etc) and the time of the document is unknown.
You must tell libcurl to collect this information before the transfer is made,
by using the \fICURLOPT_FILETIME(3)\fP option to \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP or
you will unconditionally get a -1 back.
Consider using \fICURLINFO_FILETIME_T(3)\fP to be able to extract dates beyond
the year 2038 on systems using 32 bit longs.
.SH PROTOCOLS
HTTP(S), FTP(S), SFTP
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, url);
/* Ask for filetime */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FILETIME, 1L);
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(CURLE_OK == res) {
res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_FILETIME, &filetime);
if((CURLE_OK == res) && (filetime >= 0)) {
time_t file_time = (time_t)filetime;
printf("filetime %s: %s", filename, ctime(&file_time));
}
}
/* always cleanup */
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
