22 .TH curl_mime_filedata 3 "22 August 2017" "libcurl 7.56.0" "libcurl Manual"
23 .SH NAME
24 curl_mime_filedata - set a mime part's body data from a file contents
25 .SH SYNOPSIS
26 .B #include <curl/curl.h>
27 .sp
28 .BI "CURLcode curl_mime_filedata(curl_mimepart * " part ,
29 .BI " const char * " filename ");"
30 .ad
31 .SH DESCRIPTION
32 \fIcurl_mime_filedata(3)\fP sets a mime part's body content from the named
33 file's contents. This is an alternative to \fIcurl_mime_data(3)\fP for setting
34 data to a mime part.
35
36 \fIpart\fP is the part's to assign contents to.
37
38 \fIfilename\fP points to the nul-terminated file's path name. The pointer can
39 be NULL to detach the previous part contents settings. Filename storage can be
40 safely be reused after this call.
41
42 As a side effect, the part's remote file name is set to the base name of the
43 given \fIfilename\fP if it is a valid named file. This can be undone or
44 overridden by a subsequent call to \fIcurl_mime_filename(3)\fP.
45
46 The contents of the file is read during the file transfer in a streaming
47 manner to allow huge files to get transferred without using much memory. It
48 therefore requires that the file is kept intact during the entire request.
49
50 If the file size cannot be determined before actually reading it (such as for
51 a device or named pipe), the whole mime structure containing the part
52 will be transferred as chunks by HTTP and rejected by IMAP.
53
54 Setting a part's contents twice is valid: only the value set by the last call
55 is retained.
56 .SH AVAILABILITY
57 As long as at least one of HTTP, SMTP or IMAP is enabled. Added in 7.56.0.
58 .SH RETURN VALUE
59 CURLE_OK or a CURL error code upon failure. CURLE_READ_ERROR is only an
60 indication that the file is not yet readable: it can be safely ignored at
61 this time, but the file must be made readable before the pertaining
62 easy handle is performed.
63 .SH EXAMPLE
64 .nf
65 curl_mime *mime;
66 curl_mimepart *part;
67
68 /* create a mime handle */
69 mime = curl_mime_init(easy);
70
71 /* add a part */
72 part = curl_mime_addpart(mime);
73
74 /* send data from this file */
75 curl_mime_filedata(part, "image.png");
76
77 /* set name */
78 curl_mime_name(part, "data");
