Package: curl Type: Package Title: A Modern and Flexible Web Client for R Version: 2.3 Authors@R: c( person("Jeroen", "Ooms", , "jeroen.ooms@stat.ucla.edu", role = c("cre", "aut")), person("Hadley", "Wickham", , "hadley@rstudio.com", role = "ctb"), person("RStudio", role = "cph") ) Description: The curl() and curl_download() functions provide highly configurable drop-in replacements for base url() and download.file() with better performance, support for encryption (https, ftps), gzip compression, authentication, and other 'libcurl' goodies. The core of the package implements a framework for performing fully customized requests where data can be processed either in memory, on disk, or streaming via the callback or connection interfaces. Some knowledge of 'libcurl' is recommended; for a more-user-friendly web client see the 'httr' package which builds on this package with http specific tools and logic.
