Gets information about the last transfer.
Parameters
- handle
A cURL handle returned by curl_init.
- option
-
This may be one of the following constants:
CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL - Last effective URL
CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE - The last response code. As of cURL 7.10.8, this is a legacy alias of CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE
CURLINFO_FILETIME - Remote time of the retrieved document, with the CURLOPT_FILETIME enabled; if -1 is returned the time of the document is unknown
CURLINFO_TOTAL_TIME - Total transaction time in seconds for last transfer
CURLINFO_NAMELOOKUP_TIME - Time in seconds until name resolving was complete

CURLINFO_REDIRECT_COUNT - Number of redirects, with the CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION option enabled
CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME - Time in seconds of all redirection steps before final transaction was started, with the CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION option enabled
CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL - With the CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION option disabled: redirect URL found in the last transaction, that should be requested manually next. With the CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION option enabled: this is empty. The redirect URL in this case is available in CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL

CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD - Average download speed
CURLINFO_SPEED_UPLOAD - Average upload speed
CURLINFO_HEADER_SIZE - Total size of all headers received
CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT - The request string sent. For this to work, add the CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT option to the handle by calling curl_setopt

CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD_T - The specified size of the upload. -1 if the size isn't known
CURLINFO_HTTP_VERSION - The version used in the last HTTP connection. The return value will be one of the defined CURL_HTTP_VERSION_* constants or 0 if the version can't be determined
CURLINFO_PROTOCOL - The protocol used in the last HTTP connection. The returned value will be exactly one of the CURLPROTO_* values

CURLINFO_SCHEME - The URL scheme used for the most recent connection
CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD_T - Total number of bytes that were downloaded. The number is only for the latest transfer and will be reset again for each new transfer
CURLINFO_SIZE_UPLOAD_T - Total number of bytes that were uploaded
CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD_T - The average download speed in bytes/second that curl measured for the complete download
CURLINFO_SPEED_UPLOAD_T - The average upload speed in bytes/second that curl measured for the complete upload

CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME_T - Total time taken, in microseconds, from the start until the connection to the remote host (or proxy) was completed
CURLINFO_FILETIME_T - Remote time of the retrieved document (as Unix timestamp), an alternative to CURLINFO_FILETIME to allow systems with 32 bit long variables to extract dates outside of the 32bit timestamp range
CURLINFO_NAMELOOKUP_TIME_T - Time in microseconds from the start until the name resolving was completed
CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME_T - Time taken from the start until the file transfer is just about to begin, in microseconds

Notes
Note:
Information gathered by this function is kept if the handle is re-used. This means that unless a statistic is overridden internally by this function, the previous info is returned.
