How do I make a request using HTTP basic authentication with PHP curl?
I'm building a REST web service client in PHP and at the moment I'm using curl to make requests to the service.
How do I use curl to make authenticated (http basic) requests? Do I have to add the headers myself?
You want this:
curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $username . ":" . $password);
Zend has a REST client and zend_http_client and I'm sure PEAR has some sort of wrapper. But its easy enough to do on your own.
So the entire request might look something like this:
$process = curl_init($host);
curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: application/xml', $additionalHeaders));
curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);
curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $username . ":" . $password);
curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30);
curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $payloadName);
curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
$return = curl_exec($process);
curl_close($process);
CURLOPT_USERPWD basically sends the base64 of the user:password string with http header like below:
Authorization: Basic dXNlcjpwYXNzd29yZA==
So apart from the CURLOPT_USERPWD you can also use the HTTP-Request header option as well like below with other headers:
$headers = array(
'Content-Type:application/json',
'Authorization: Basic '. base64_encode("user:password") // <---
);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
The most simple and native way it's to use CURL directly.
This works for me :
<?php
$login = 'login';
$password = 'password';
$url = 'http://your.url';
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_BASIC);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$login:$password");
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo($result);
