[](#basic-usage)

```
use Curly\Curl;

// initialize first - set temp directory for cookie files
Curl::initialize(__DIR__ . '/temp');

// GET request
$html = Curl::get($url);

// GET request with no auto-redirect
$html = Curl::get($url, FALSE);

// POST request with values
$html = Curl::post($url, [
  'foo' => 'bar',
  'hello' => 'world',
  'file' => new CURLFile($path),
]);

// HEAD request
$status = Curl::ping($url);

// last response info
$info = Curl::getInfo();

// or single info field
$httpCode = Curl::getInfo('http_code');
```

// cookies for specific domain and path
$cookies = Curl::getCookies('http://example.com/foo/bar');
