Expand a little. - mention the type name of the return code - avoid stating which exact return codes that might be returned, as that varies over time, builds and conditions - avoid stating some always return OK - refer to the manpage documenting all the return codes Closes #15900

# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_SSH_PRIVATE_KEYFILE - private key file for SSH auth
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSH_PRIVATE_KEYFILE,
|
|
char *filename);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass a char pointer pointing to a *filename* for your private key. If not
|
|
used, libcurl defaults to **$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa** or **$HOME/.ssh/id_dsa** if
|
|
the HOME environment variable is set, and in the current directory if HOME is
|
|
not set.
|
|
|
|
If the file is password-protected, set the password with
|
|
CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD(3).
|
|
|
|
The SSH library derives the public key from this private key when possible. If
|
|
the SSH library cannot derive the public key from the private one and no
|
|
public one is provided with CURLOPT_SSH_PUBLIC_KEYFILE(3), the transfer
|
|
fails.
|
|
|
|
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
# DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
As explained above

# %PROTOCOLS%

|
# EXAMPLE

if(curl) {
|
|
CURLcode res;
|
|
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "sftp://example.com/file");
|
|
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSH_PRIVATE_KEYFILE,
|
|
"/home/clarkkent/.ssh/id_rsa");
|
|
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD, "password");
|
|
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
|
|
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);

}
