relevant section of curl manpage : | |
-d/--data <data> | |
(HTTP) Sends the specified data in a POST request to the HTTP | |
server, in the same way that a browser does when a user has | |
filled in an HTML form and presses the submit button. This will | |
cause curl to pass the data to the server using the content-type | |
application/x-www-form-urlencoded. Compare to -F/--form. | |
-d/--data is the same as --data-ascii. To post data purely | |
binary, you should instead use the --data-binary option. To URL- | |
encode the value of a form field you may use --data-urlencode. | |
If any of these options is used more than once on the same com- | |
mand line, the data pieces specified will be merged together | |
with a separating &-symbol. Thus, using '-d name=daniel -d | |
skill=lousy' would generate a post chunk that looks like | |
'name=daniel&skill=lousy'. | |
If you start the data with the letter @, the rest should be a | |
file name to read the data from, or - if you want curl to read | |
the data from stdin. The contents of the file must already be | |
URL-encoded. Multiple files can also be specified. Posting data | |
from a file named 'foobar' would thus be done with --data @foo- | |
bar. | |
