curl 是一種命令行工具，作用是發出網絡請求，然后獲取數據，顯示在"標准輸出"（stdout）上面。它支持多種協議，下面列舉其常用功能。
一、查看網頁源碼
直接在 curl 命令后加上網址，就可以看到網頁源碼。以網址 www.sina.com為例（選擇該網址，主要因為它的網頁代碼較短）。
$ curl www.sina.com
<html> <head><title>301 Moved Permanently</title></head> <body bgcolor="white"> <center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center> <hr><center>nginx</center> </body> </html> 如果要把這個網頁保存下來，可以使用 -o 參數：
$ curl -o [文件名] www.sina.com
二、自動跳轉
有的網址是自動跳轉的。使用 -L 參數，curl 就會跳轉到新的網址。
$ curl -L www.sina.com
鍵入上面的命令，結果自動跳轉為 www.sina.com.cn。
三、顯示頭信息
-i 參數可以顯示 http response 的頭信息，連同網頁代碼一起。-I 參數則只顯示 http response 的頭信息。
$ curl -i www.sina.com
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
Server: nginx
Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2016 08:30:16 GMT
Content-Type: text/html
Location: http://www.sina.com.cn/
Expires: Tue, 23 Aug 2016 08:32:16 GMT
Cache-Control: max-age=120
Age: 102
Content-Length: 178
X-Cache: HIT from xd33-83.sina.com.cn
<html> <head><title>301 Moved Permanently</title></head> <body bgcolor="white"> <center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center> <hr><center>nginx</center> </body> </html> 四、顯示通信過程
-v 參數可以顯示一次 http 通信的整個過程，包括端口連接和 http request 頭信息。
$ curl -v www.sina.com
* Rebuilt URL to: www.sina.com/
* Hostname was NOT found in DNS cache * Trying 202.108.33.60... * Connected to www.sina.com (202.108.33.60) port 80 (#0) > GET / HTTP/1.1 > User-Agent: curl/7.35.0 > Host: www.sina.com > Accept: */* > < HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently * Server nginx is not blacklisted < Server: nginx < Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2016 08:48:14 GMT < Content-Type: text/html < Location: http://www.sina.com.cn/ < Expires: Tue, 23 Aug 2016 08:50:14 GMT < Cache-Control: max-age=120 < Age: 40 < Content-Length: 178 < X-Cache: HIT from xd33-81.sina.com.cn < <html> <head><title>301 Moved Permanently</title></head> <body bgcolor="white"> <center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center> <hr><center>nginx</center> </body> </html> * Connection #0 to host www.sina.com left intact 如果覺得上面的信息還不夠，那么下面的命令可以查看更詳細的通信過程。
$ curl --trace output.txt www.sina.com
或者
$ curl --trace-ascii output.txt www.sina.com
運行后，打開 output.txt 文件查看。
五、發送表單信息
發送表單信息有 GET 和 POST 兩種方法。GET 方法相對簡單，只要把數據附在網址后面就行。
$ curl example.com/form.cgi?data=xxx
POST 方法必須把數據和網址分開，curl 就要用到 --data 或者 -d 參數。
$ curl -X POST --data "data=xxx" example.com/form.cgi 如果你的數據沒有經過表單編碼，還可以讓 curl 為你編碼，參數是 --data-urlencode。
$ curl -X POST--data-urlencode "date=April 1" example.com/form.cgi 六、HTTP動詞
curl 默認的 HTTP 動詞是 GET，使用 -X 參數可以支持其他動詞。
$ curl -X POST www.example.com
$ curl -X DELETE www.example.com
七、User Agent字段
這個字段是用來表示客戶端的設備信息。服務器有時會根據這個字段，針對不同設備，返回不同格式的網頁，比如手機版和桌面版。
瀏覽器的 User Agent 是：
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.84 Safari/537.36
curl 可以這樣模擬：
$ curl --user-agent "[User Agent]" [URL] 八、cookie
使用 --cookie 參數，可以讓 curl 發送 cookie。
$ curl --cookie "name=xxx" www.example.com 至於具體的 cookie 的值，可以從 http response 頭信息的 Set-Cookie 字段中得到。
九、增加頭信息
有時需要在 http request 之中，自行增加一個頭信息。--header 參數就可以起到這個作用。
$ curl --header "Content-Type:application/json" http://example.com 十、HTTP認證
有些網域需要 HTTP 認證，這時 curl 需要用到 --user 或者 -u 參數。
$ curl --user name:password example.com 附錄 curl 命令完整的參數
