title: 'RCurl: General Network (HTTP/FTP/...) Client Interface for R'
version: 1.98-1.20.9999
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.RCurl
abstract: A wrapper for 'libcurl' <https://curl.se/libcurl/> Provides functions to
  allow one to compose general HTTP requests and provides convenient functions to
  fetch URIs, get & post forms, etc. and process the results returned by the Web server.
  This provides a great deal of control over the HTTP/FTP/... connection and the form
  of the request while providing a higher-level interface than is available just using
  R socket connections. Additionally, the underlying implementation is robust and
  extensive, supporting FTP/FTPS/TFTP (uploads and downloads), SSL/HTTPS, telnet,
  dict, ldap, and also supports cookies, redirects, authentication, etc.
