CURLMOPT_PUSHFUNCTION(3)            libcurl           CURLMOPT_PUSHFUNCTION(3)

NAME
       CURLMOPT_PUSHFUNCTION - callback that approves or denies server pushes

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       int curl_push_callback(CURL *parent,
                              CURL *easy,
                              size_t num_headers,
                              struct curl_pushheaders *headers,
                              void *clientp);

       CURLMcode curl_multi_setopt(CURLM *handle, CURLMOPT_PUSHFUNCTION,
                                   curl_push_callback func);

DESCRIPTION
       This  callback  gets called when a new HTTP/2 stream is being pushed by
       the server (using the PUSH_PROMISE frame). If no push callback is  set,
       all offered pushes are denied automatically.

CALLBACK DESCRIPTION
       The callback gets its arguments like this:

       parent  is the handle of the stream on which this push arrives. The new
       handle has been duplicated from the parent, meaning that it has  gotten
       all  its  options  inherited. It is then up to the application to alter
       any options if desired.

       easy is a newly created handle that represents this upcoming transfer.

       num_headers is the number of name+value pairs that was received and can
       be accessed

       headers  is  a  handle  used  to access push headers using the accessor
       functions  described  below.  This  only  accesses  and  provides   the
       PUSH_PROMISE  headers,  the normal response headers are provided in the
       header callback as usual.

       clientp is the pointer set with CURLMOPT_PUSHDATA(3)

       If the callback returns CURL_PUSH_OK, the new easy handle is  added  to
       the multi handle, the callback must not do that by itself.

       The  callback  can  access PUSH_PROMISE headers with two accessor func-
       tions. These functions can only be used from within this  callback  and
       they   can   only   access   the   PUSH_PROMISE   headers:   curl_push-
       header_byname(3)  and  curl_pushheader_bynum(3).  The  normal  response
       headers  are  passed  to the header callback for pushed streams just as
       for normal streams.

       The header fields can also be accessed with curl_easy_header(3), intro-
       duced in later libcurl versions.

CALLBACK RETURN VALUE
       CURL_PUSH_OK (0)
              The  application  has  accepted  the stream and it can now start
              receiving data, the ownership of the CURL handle has been  taken
              over by the application.

       CURL_PUSH_DENY (1)
              The  callback denies the stream and no data reaches the applica-
              tion, the easy handle is destroyed by libcurl.

       CURL_PUSH_ERROROUT (2)
              Returning this code rejects the pushed  stream  and  returns  an
              error  back  on  the  parent stream making it get closed with an
              error. (Added in 7.72.0)

       *      All other return codes are reserved for future use.

DEFAULT
       NULL, no callback

PROTOCOLS
       HTTP(S) (HTTP/2 only)

EXAMPLE
       /* only allow pushes for file names starting with "push-" */
       int push_callback(CURL *parent,
                         CURL *easy,
                         size_t num_headers,
                         struct curl_pushheaders *headers,
                         void *clientp)
       {
         char *headp;
         int *transfers = (int *)clientp;
         FILE *out;
         headp = curl_pushheader_byname(headers, ":path");
         if(headp && !strncmp(headp, "/push-", 6)) {
           fprintf(stderr, "The PATH is %s\n", headp);

           /* save the push here */
           out = fopen("pushed-stream", "wb");

           /* write to this file */
           curl_easy_setopt(easy, CURLOPT_WRITEDATA, out);

           (*transfers)++; /* one more */

           return CURL_PUSH_OK;
         }
         return CURL_PUSH_DENY;
       }

       curl_multi_setopt(multi, CURLMOPT_PUSHFUNCTION, push_callback);
       curl_multi_setopt(multi, CURLMOPT_PUSHDATA, &counter);

AVAILABILITY
       Added in 7.44.0

RETURN VALUE
       Returns CURLM_OK if the option is supported,  and  CURLM_UNKNOWN_OPTION
       if not.
