PHP 5.3+ 2. libcurl Features -------- [](#features) - POST/GET/PUT/DELETE requests over HTTP - HTTP Authentication - Follows redirects - Returns error string - Provides debug information - Cookies Install ------- [](#install) ### Using Composer [](#using-composer) Just add the following to the require section your composer.json file: ``` "bca/curl": "2.*" ``` Then execute `composer install` to pull down the latest release. Package details can be found at . ### Manually via Github [](#manually-via-github) You may download a specific version from or visit the main repository at to download unreleased code or pull down a copy via git. Versioning ---------- [](#versioning) This library will be maintained under the Semantic Versioning guidelines. Releases will be numbered with the following format: ``` .. ``` And constructed with the following guidelines: - Breaking backward compatibility bumps the major (and resets the minor and patch) - New additions without breaking backward compatibility bumps the minor (and resets the patch) - Bug fixes and misc changes bump the patch Composer users who would like more granular control over upgrades should restrict their installation to patch updates only using this require key: ``` "bca/curl": "2.1.*" ``` For more information on SemVer, please visit . Examples -------- [](#examples) Simple requests can be constructed with just a URL and a method. ``` $request = new CURL('http://example.com/'); $response = $request->get(); ``` More complex requests build upon that concept by adding methods to the request. ``` $request = new CURL('http://example.com/'); $response = $request ->param('aaa', 'bbb') ->param('xxx', 'yyy') ->post(); echo $response; ``` Advanced requests can be built by adding even more methods. ``` $request = new CURL('http://example.com/'); $response = $request ->param('aaa', 'bbb') ->param('xxx', 'yyy') ->option(CURLOPT_PROXY, '10.0.0.1') ->auth('username', 'password', 'digest') ->delete(); echo $response; ``` ### Health Score 37 — LowBetter than 83% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity34 Limited adoption so far Community16 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity66 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 96.4% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio. Uses a 2-year decay window. **Popularity (30%)** — Total and monthly downloads, GitHub stars, and forks. Logarithmic scaling prevents top-heavy scores. **Community (15%)** — Contributors, dependents, forks, watchers, and maintainers. Measures real ecosystem engagement. **Maturity (30%)** — Project age, version count, PHP version support, and release stability. ### Release Activity Cadence Every ~86 days Recently: every ~162 days Total 9 Last Release 4261d ago ### Community Maintainers ![](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/a4feb5a2e8a07f71eb19ee7fa194924d7cad91c2bee8a93aed1ce9323881eda0?d=identicon)[brodkinca](/maintainers/brodkinca) --- Top Contributors [![brodkin](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/236564?v=4)](https://github.com/brodkin "brodkin (160 commits)")[![ricick](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/137188?v=4)](https://github.com/ricick "ricick (2 commits)")[![alexbilbie](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/77991?v=4)](https://github.com/alexbilbie "alexbilbie (1 commits)")[![chadhutchins](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/47898?v=4)](https://github.com/chadhutchins "chadhutchins (1 commits)")[![pwhelan](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/601645?v=4)](https://github.com/pwhelan "pwhelan (1 commits)")[![rhbecker](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/224732?v=4)](https://github.com/rhbecker "rhbecker (1 commits)") --- Tags curlwrapper ### Code Quality TestsPHPUnit ### Embed Badge ![Health badge](/badges/bca-curl/health.svg) ``` [![Health](https://phpackages.com/badges/bca-curl/health.svg)](https://phpackages.com/packages/bca-curl) ``` ### Alternatives [rmccue/requests A HTTP library written in PHP, for human beings. 3.6k34.5M258](/packages/rmccue-requests)[php-http/curl-client PSR-18 and HTTPlug Async client with cURL 48347.0M384](/packages/php-http-curl-client)[smi2/phpclickhouse PHP ClickHouse Client 84310.1M71](/packages/smi2-phpclickhouse)[stefangabos/zebra_curl A high performance solution for making multiple HTTP requests concurrently, asynchronously from your PHP projects using cURL 21971.3k2](/packages/stefangabos-zebra-curl)[minicli/curly Simple Curl Client 14262.4k5](/packages/minicli-curly) PHPackages © 2026 [Directory](/)[Categories](/categories)[Trending](/trending)[Changelog](/changelog)[Analyze](/analyze)
