# How to install curl and libcurl

## Installing Binary Packages

Lots of people download binary distributions of curl and libcurl. This
document does not describe how to install curl or libcurl using such a binary
package. This document describes how to compile, build and install curl and
libcurl from [source code](https://curl.se/download.html).

## Building using vcpkg

You can download and install curl and libcurl using the [vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/) dependency manager:

    git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git
    cd vcpkg
    ./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
    ./vcpkg integrate install
    vcpkg install curl[tool]

The curl port in vcpkg is kept up to date by Microsoft team members and
community contributors. If the version is out of date, please [create an issue
or pull request](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg) on the vcpkg repository.

## Building from git

If you get your code off a git repository instead of a release tarball, see
the [GIT-INFO.md](https://github.com/curl/curl/blob/master/GIT-INFO.md) file in the root directory for specific instructions on how
to proceed.

# Unix

A normal Unix installation is made in three or four steps (after you have
unpacked the source archive):

    ./configure --with-openssl [--with-gnutls --with-wolfssl]
    make
    make test (optional)
    make install

(Adjust the configure line accordingly to use the TLS library you want.)

You probably need to be root when doing the last command.

Get a full listing of all available configure options by invoking it like:

    ./configure --help

If you want to install curl in a different file hierarchy than `/usr/local`,
specify that when running configure:

    ./configure --prefix=/path/to/curl/tree

If you have write permission in that directory, you can do 'make install'
without being root. An example of this would be to make a local install in
your own home directory:

    ./configure --prefix=$HOME
    make
    make install

The configure script always tries to find a working SSL library unless
explicitly told not to. If you have OpenSSL installed in the default search
path for your compiler/linker, you do not need to do anything special. If you
have OpenSSL installed in `/usr/local/ssl`, you can run configure like:

    ./configure --with-openssl

If you have OpenSSL installed somewhere else (for example, `/opt/OpenSSL`) and
you have pkg-config installed, set the pkg-config path first, like this:

    env PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/OpenSSL/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --with-openssl

Without pkg-config installed, use this:

    ./configure --with-openssl=/opt/OpenSSL

If you insist on forcing a build without SSL support, you can run configure
like this:

    ./configure --without-ssl

If you have OpenSSL installed, but with the libraries in one place and the
header files somewhere else, you have to set the `LDFLAGS` and `CPPFLAGS`
environment variables prior to running configure. Something like this should
work:

    CPPFLAGS="-I/path/to/ssl/include" LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/ssl/lib" ./configure

If you have shared SSL libs installed in a directory where your runtime
linker does not find them (which usually causes configure failures), you can
provide this option to gcc to set a hard-coded path to the runtime linker:

    LDFLAGS=-Wl,-R/usr/local/ssl/lib ./configure --with-openssl

## Static builds

To force a static library compile, disable the shared library creation by
running configure like:

    ./configure --disable-shared

The configure script is primarily done to work with shared/dynamic third party
dependencies. When linking with shared libraries, the dependency "chain" is
handled automatically by the library loader - on all modern systems.

If you instead link with a static library, you need to provide all the
dependency libraries already at the link command line.

Figuring out all the dependency libraries for a given library is hard, as it
might involve figuring out the dependencies of the dependencies and they vary
between platforms and change between versions.

When using static dependencies, the build scripts mostly assume that you, the
user, provide all the necessary additional dependency libraries as additional
arguments in the build. With configure, by setting `LIBS` or `LDFLAGS` on the
command line.

Building statically is not for the faint of heart.

## Debug

If you are a curl developer and use gcc, you might want to enable more debug
options with the `--enable-debug` option.

curl can be built to use a whole range of libraries to provide various useful
services, and configure tries to auto-detect a decent default. If you want to
alter it, you can select how to deal with each individual library.

## Select TLS backend

These options are provided to select the TLS backend to use.

 - AmiSSL: `--with-amissl`
 - GnuTLS: `--with-gnutls`.
 - mbedTLS: `--with-mbedtls`
 - OpenSSL: `--with-openssl` (also for BoringSSL, AWS-LC, LibreSSL, and quictls)
 - rustls: `--with-rustls`
 - Schannel: `--with-schannel`
 - wolfSSL: `--with-wolfssl`

You can build curl with *multiple* TLS backends at your choice, but some TLS
backends cannot be combined: if you build with an OpenSSL fork (or wolfSSL),
you cannot add another OpenSSL fork (or wolfSSL) simply because they have
conflicting identical symbol names.

When you build with multiple TLS backends, you can select the active one at
runtime when curl starts up.

## MultiSSL and HTTP/3

HTTP/3 needs QUIC and QUIC needs TLS. Building libcurl with HTTP/3 and QUIC
support is not compatible with the MultiSSL feature: they are mutually
exclusive. If you need MultiSSL in your build, you cannot have HTTP/3 support
and vice versa.

libcurl can only use a single TLS library with QUIC and that *same* TLS
library needs to be used for the other TLS using protocols.

## Configure finding libs in wrong directory

When the configure script checks for third-party libraries, it adds those
directories to the `LDFLAGS` variable and then tries linking to see if it
works. When successful, the found directory is kept in the `LDFLAGS` variable
when the script continues to execute and do more tests and possibly check for
more libraries.

This can make subsequent checks for libraries wrongly detect another
installation in a directory that was previously added to `LDFLAGS` by another
library check.

# Windows

Building for Windows XP is required as a minimum.

You can build curl with:

- Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 v9.0 or later (`_MSC_VER >= 1500`)
- MinGW-w64 3.0 or later (`__MINGW64_VERSION_MAJOR >= 3`)

## Building Windows DLLs and C runtime (CRT) linkage issues

 As a general rule, building a DLL with static CRT linkage is highly
 discouraged, and intermixing CRTs in the same app is something to avoid at
 any cost.

 Reading and comprehending Microsoft Knowledge Base articles KB94248 and
 KB140584 is a must for any Windows developer. Especially important is full
 understanding if you are not going to follow the advice given above.

 - [How To Use the C Runtime](https://support.microsoft.com/help/94248/how-to-use-the-c-run-time)
 - [Runtime Library Compiler Options](https://docs.microsoft.com/cpp/build/reference/md-mt-ld-use-run-time-library)
 - [Potential Errors Passing CRT Objects Across DLL Boundaries](https://docs.microsoft.com/cpp/c-runtime-library/potential-errors-passing-crt-objects-across-dll-boundaries)

If your app is misbehaving in some strange way, or it is suffering from memory
corruption, before asking for further help, please try first to rebuild every
single library your app uses as well as your app using the debug
multi-threaded dynamic C runtime.

 If you get linkage errors read section 5.7 of the FAQ document.

## Cygwin

Almost identical to the Unix installation. Essentially run the configure script in the
curl source tree root with `sh configure`, then run `make`.

To expand on building with `cygwin` first ensure it is in your path, and there are no
conflicting tools (*i.e. Chocolatey with sed package*). If so move `cygwin` ahead of any items
in your path that would conflict with `cygwin` commands, making sure you have the `sh`
executable in `/bin/` or you see the configure fail toward the end.

Download the setup installer from
[`cygwin`](https://cygwin.com/) to begin. Additional `cygwin`
packages are needed for the install. For more on installing packages visit
[`cygwin setup`](https://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#faq.setup.cli).

Either run setup-x86_64.exe, then search and select packages individually, or try:

    setup-x86_64.exe -P binutils -P gcc-core -P libpsl-devel -P libtool -P perl -P make

If the latter, matching packages should appear in the install rows (*is fickle though*) after selecting
the download site i.e. `https://mirrors.kernel.org`. In either case, follow the GUI prompts
until you reach the "Select Packages" window; then select packages, click next, and finish
the `cygwin` package installation.

Download the latest version of the `cygwin` packages required (*and suggested*) for a successful install:

<details>
    <summary>Package List</summary>

```
 binutil - required
 gcc-core - required
 libpsl-devel - required
 libtool - required
 perl - required
 make - required
 - NOTE - if there is an error regarding make, open the cygwin terminal, and run:
   ln -s /usr/bin/make /usr/bin/gmake
```

</details>

Once all the packages have been installed, begin the process of installing curl from the source code:

 <details>
     <summary>configure_options</summary>

```
    --with-gnutls
    --with-mbedtls
    --with-openssl (also works for OpenSSL forks)
    --with-rustls
    --with-wolfssl
    --without-ssl
```

 </details>

 1. `sh configure <configure_options>`
 2. `make`

If any error occurs during curl installation, try:
 - reinstalling the required `cygwin` packages from the list above
 - temporarily move `cygwin` to the top of your path
 - install all of the suggested `cygwin` packages

## MS-DOS

You can use either autotools or cmake:

    ./configure \
      CC=/path/to/djgpp/bin/i586-pc-msdosdjgpp-gcc \
      AR=/path/to/djgpp/bin/i586-pc-msdosdjgpp-ar \
      RANLIB=/path/to/djgpp/bin/i586-pc-msdosdjgpp-ranlib \
      WATT_ROOT=/path/to/djgpp/net/watt \
      --host=i586-pc-msdosdjgpp \
      --with-openssl=/path/to/djgpp \
      --with-zlib=/path/to/djgpp \
      --without-libpsl \
      --disable-shared

    cmake . \
      -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=DOS \
      -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER_TARGET=i586-pc-msdosdjgpp \
      -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/path/to/djgpp/bin/i586-pc-msdosdjgpp-gcc \
      -DWATT_ROOT=/path/to/djgpp/net/watt \
      -DOPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR=/path/to/djgpp/include \
      -DOPENSSL_SSL_LIBRARY=/path/to/djgpp/lib/libssl.a \
      -DOPENSSL_CRYPTO_LIBRARY=/path/to/djgpp/lib/libcrypto.a \
      -DZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR=/path/to/djgpp/include \
      -DZLIB_LIBRARY=/path/to/djgpp/lib/libz.a \
      -DCURL_USE_LIBPSL=OFF

Notes:

 - Requires DJGPP 2.04 or upper.

 - Compile Watt-32 (and OpenSSL) with the same version of DJGPP. Otherwise
   things go wrong because things like FS-extensions and `errno` values have
   been changed between releases.

## AmigaOS

You can use either autotools or cmake:

    ./configure \
      CC=/opt/amiga/bin/m68k-amigaos-gcc \
      AR=/opt/amiga/bin/m68k-amigaos-ar \
      RANLIB=/opt/amiga/bin/m68k-amigaos-ranlib \
      --host=m68k-amigaos \
      --with-amissl \
      CFLAGS='-O0 -msoft-float -mcrt=clib2' \
      CPPFLAGS=-I/path/to/AmiSSL/Developer/include \
      LDFLAGS=-L/path/to/AmiSSL/Developer/lib/AmigaOS3 \
      LIBS='-lnet -lm -latomic' \
      --without-libpsl \
      --disable-shared

    cmake . \
      -DAMIGA=1 \
      -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=Generic \
      -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER_TARGET=m68k-unknown-amigaos \
      -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/opt/amiga/bin/m68k-amigaos-gcc \
      -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS='-O0 -msoft-float -mcrt=clib2' \
      -DAMISSL_INCLUDE_DIR=/path/to/AmiSSL/Developer/include \
      -DAMISSL_STUBS_LIBRARY=/path/to/AmiSSL/Developer/lib/AmigaOS3/libamisslstubs.a \
      -DAMISSL_AUTO_LIBRARY=/path/to/AmiSSL/Developer/lib/AmigaOS3/libamisslauto.a \
      -DCURL_USE_LIBPSL=OFF

## Disabling Specific Protocols in Windows builds

The configure utility, unfortunately, is not available for the Windows
environment, therefore, you cannot use the various disable-protocol options of
the configure utility on this platform.

You can use specific defines to disable specific protocols and features. See
[CURL-DISABLE](https://github.com/curl/curl/blob/master/docs/CURL-DISABLE.md)
for the full list.

If you want to set any of these defines you have the following options:

 - Modify `lib/config-win32.h`
 - Modify `lib/curl_setup.h`
 - Modify `winbuild/Makefile.vc`
 - Modify the "Preprocessor Definitions" in the libcurl project

Note: The pre-processor settings can be found using the Visual Studio IDE
under "Project -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> C/C++ ->
Preprocessor".

## Using BSD-style lwIP instead of Winsock TCP/IP stack in Windows builds

In order to compile libcurl and curl using BSD-style lwIP TCP/IP stack it is
necessary to make the definition of the preprocessor symbol `USE_LWIPSOCK`
visible to libcurl and curl compilation processes. To set this definition you
have the following alternatives:

 - Modify `lib/config-win32.h`
 - Modify `winbuild/Makefile.vc`
 - Modify the "Preprocessor Definitions" in the libcurl project

Note: The pre-processor settings can be found using the Visual Studio IDE
under "Project -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> C/C++ ->
Preprocessor".

Once that libcurl has been built with BSD-style lwIP TCP/IP stack support, in
order to use it with your program it is mandatory that your program includes
lwIP header file `<lwip/opt.h>` (or another lwIP header that includes this)
before including any libcurl header. Your program does not need the
`USE_LWIPSOCK` preprocessor definition which is for libcurl internals only.

Compilation has been verified with lwIP 1.4.0.

This BSD-style lwIP TCP/IP stack support must be considered experimental given
that it has been verified that lwIP 1.4.0 still needs some polish, and libcurl
might yet need some additional adjustment.

## Important static libcurl usage note

When building an application that uses the static libcurl library on Windows,
you must add `-DCURL_STATICLIB` to your `CFLAGS`. Otherwise the linker looks
for dynamic import symbols.

## Legacy Windows and SSL

Schannel (from Windows SSPI), is the native SSL library in Windows. However,
Schannel in Windows <= XP is unable to connect to servers that no longer
support the legacy handshakes and algorithms used by those versions. If you
are using curl in one of those earlier versions of Windows you should choose
another SSL backend such as OpenSSL.

# Android

When building curl for Android you can you CMake or curl's `configure` script.

Before you can build curl for Android, you need to install the Android NDK
first. This can be done using the SDK Manager that is part of Android Studio.
Once you have installed the Android NDK, you need to figure out where it has
been installed and then set up some environment variables before launching
the build.

Examples to compile for `aarch64` and API level 29:

with CMake, where `ANDROID_NDK_HOME` points into your NDK:

    cmake . \
      -DANDROID_ABI=arm64-v8a \
      -DANDROID_PLATFORM=android-29 \
      -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="$ANDROID_NDK_HOME/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake" \
      -DCURL_ENABLE_SSL=OFF \
      -DCURL_USE_LIBPSL=OFF

with `configure`, on macOS:

```bash
export ANDROID_NDK_HOME=~/Library/Android/sdk/ndk/25.1.8937393 # Point into your NDK.
export HOST_TAG=darwin-x86_64 # Same tag for Apple Silicon. Other OS values here: https://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/other_build_systems#overview
export TOOLCHAIN=$ANDROID_NDK_HOME/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/$HOST_TAG
export AR=$TOOLCHAIN/bin/llvm-ar
export AS=$TOOLCHAIN/bin/llvm-as
export CC=$TOOLCHAIN/bin/aarch64-linux-android29-clang
export CXX=$TOOLCHAIN/bin/aarch64-linux-android29-clang++
export LD=$TOOLCHAIN/bin/ld
export RANLIB=$TOOLCHAIN/bin/llvm-ranlib
export STRIP=$TOOLCHAIN/bin/llvm-strip
```

When building on Linux or targeting other API levels or architectures, you need
to adjust those variables accordingly. After that you can build curl like this:

    ./configure --host aarch64-linux-android --with-pic --disable-shared

Note that this does not give you SSL/TLS support. If you need SSL/TLS, you
have to build curl with an SSL/TLS library, e.g. OpenSSL, because it is
impossible for curl to access Android's native SSL/TLS layer. To build curl
for Android using OpenSSL, follow the OpenSSL build instructions and then
install `libssl.a` and `libcrypto.a` to `$TOOLCHAIN/sysroot/usr/lib` and copy
`include/openssl` to `$TOOLCHAIN/sysroot/usr/include`. Now you can build curl
for Android using OpenSSL like this:

```bash
LIBS="-lssl -lcrypto -lc++" # For OpenSSL/BoringSSL. In general, you need to the SSL/TLS layer's transitive dependencies if you are linking statically.
./configure --host aarch64-linux-android --with-pic --disable-shared --with-openssl="$TOOLCHAIN/sysroot/usr"
```

# IBM i

For IBM i (formerly OS/400), you can use curl in two different ways:

- Natively, running in the **ILE**. The obvious use is being able to call curl
  from ILE C or RPG applications.
- You need to build this from source. See `packages/OS400/README` for the ILE
  specific build instructions.
- In the **PASE** environment, which runs AIX programs. curl is built as it
  would be on AIX.
- IBM provides builds of curl in their Yum repository for PASE software.
- To build from source, follow the Unix instructions.

There are some additional limitations and quirks with curl on this platform;
they affect both environments.

## Multi-threading notes

By default, jobs in IBM i does not start with threading enabled. (Exceptions
include interactive PASE sessions started by `QP2TERM` or SSH.) If you use
curl in an environment without threading when options like asynchronous DNS
were enabled, you get messages like:

```
getaddrinfo() thread failed to start
```

Do not panic. curl and your program are not broken. You can fix this by:

- Set the environment variable `QIBM_MULTI_THREADED` to `Y` before starting
  your program. This can be done at whatever scope you feel is appropriate.
- Alternatively, start the job with the `ALWMLTTHD` parameter set to `*YES`.

# Cross compile

Download and unpack the curl package.

`cd` to the new directory. (e.g. `cd curl-7.12.3`)

Set environment variables to point to the cross-compile toolchain and call
configure with any options you need. Be sure and specify the `--host` and
`--build` parameters at configuration time. The following script is an example
of cross-compiling for the IBM 405GP PowerPC processor using the toolchain on
Linux.

```bash
#! /bin/sh

export PATH=$PATH:/opt/hardhat/devkit/ppc/405/bin
export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/hardhat/devkit/ppc/405/target/usr/include"
export AR=ppc_405-ar
export AS=ppc_405-as
export LD=ppc_405-ld
export RANLIB=ppc_405-ranlib
export CC=ppc_405-gcc
export NM=ppc_405-nm

./configure --target=powerpc-hardhat-linux
    --host=powerpc-hardhat-linux
    --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu
    --prefix=/opt/hardhat/devkit/ppc/405/target/usr/local
    --exec-prefix=/usr/local
```

The `--prefix` parameter specifies where curl gets installed. If `configure`
completes successfully, do `make` and `make install` as usual.

In some cases, you may be able to simplify the above commands to as little as:

    ./configure --host=ARCH-OS

# REDUCING SIZE

There are a number of configure options that can be used to reduce the size of
libcurl for embedded applications where binary size is an important factor.
First, be sure to set the `CFLAGS` variable when configuring with any relevant
compiler optimization flags to reduce the size of the binary. For gcc, this
would mean at minimum the `-Os` option, and others like the following that
may be relevant in some environments: `-march=X`, `-mthumb`, `-m32`,
`-mdynamic-no-pic`, `-flto`, `-fdata-sections`, `-ffunction-sections`,
`-fno-unwind-tables`, `-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables`,
`-fno-record-gcc-switches`, `-fsection-anchors`, `-fno-plt`,
`-Wl,--gc-sections`, `-Wl,-Bsymbolic`, `-Wl,-s`,

For example, this is how to combine a few of these options:

    ./configure CC=gcc CFLAGS='-Os -ffunction-sections' LDFLAGS='-Wl,--gc-sections'...

Note that newer compilers often produce smaller code than older versions
due to improved optimization.

Be sure to specify as many `--disable-` and `--without-` flags on the
configure command-line as you can to disable all the libcurl features that you
know your application is not going to need. Besides specifying the
`--disable-PROTOCOL` flags for all the types of URLs your application do not
use, here are some other flags that can reduce the size of the library by
disabling support for some features (run `./configure --help` to see them all):

 - `--disable-aws` (cryptographic authentication)
 - `--disable-basic-auth` (cryptographic authentication)
 - `--disable-bearer-auth` (cryptographic authentication)
 - `--disable-digest-auth` (cryptographic authentication)
 - `--disable-http-auth` (all HTTP authentication)
 - `--disable-kerberos-auth` (cryptographic authentication)
 - `--disable-negotiate-auth` (cryptographic authentication)
 - `--disable-ntlm` (NTLM authentication)
 - `--disable-alt-svc` (HTTP Alt-Svc)
 - `--disable-ares` (the C-ARES DNS library)
 - `--disable-cookies` (HTTP cookies)
 - `--disable-dateparse` (date parsing for time conditionals)
 - `--disable-dnsshuffle` (internal server load spreading)
 - `--disable-doh` (DNS-over-HTTP)
 - `--disable-form-api` (POST form API)
 - `--disable-get-easy-options` (lookup easy options at runtime)
 - `--disable-headers-api` (API to access headers)
 - `--disable-hsts` (HTTP Strict Transport Security)
 - `--disable-ipv6` (IPv6)
 - `--disable-libcurl-option` (--libcurl C code generation support)
 - `--disable-manual` (--manual built-in documentation)
 - `--disable-mime` (MIME API)
 - `--disable-netrc`  (.netrc file)
 - `--disable-progress-meter` (graphical progress meter in library)
 - `--disable-proxy` (HTTP and SOCKS proxies)
 - `--disable-socketpair` (socketpair for asynchronous name resolving)
 - `--disable-threaded-resolver`  (threaded name resolver)
 - `--disable-tls-srp` (Secure Remote Password authentication for TLS)
 - `--disable-unix-sockets` (Unix sockets)
 - `--disable-verbose` (eliminates debugging strings and error code strings)
 - `--disable-versioned-symbols` (versioned symbols)
 - `--enable-symbol-hiding` (eliminates unneeded symbols in the shared library)
 - `--without-brotli` (Brotli on-the-fly decompression)
 - `--without-libpsl` (Public Suffix List in cookies)
 - `--without-nghttp2` (HTTP/2 using nghttp2)
 - `--without-ngtcp2` (HTTP/2 using ngtcp2)
 - `--without-zstd` (Zstd on-the-fly decompression)
 - `--without-libidn2` (internationalized domain names)
 - `--without-librtmp` (RTMP)
 - `--without-ssl` (SSL/TLS)
 - `--without-zlib` (gzip/deflate on-the-fly decompression)

Be sure also to strip debugging symbols from your binaries after compiling
using 'strip' or an option like `-s`. If space is really tight, you may be able
to gain a few bytes by removing some unneeded sections of the shared library
using the -R option to objcopy (e.g. the .comment section).

Using these techniques it is possible to create a basic HTTP-only libcurl
shared library for i386 Linux platforms that is only 137 KiB in size
(as of libcurl version 8.13.0, using gcc 14.2.0).

You may find that statically linking libcurl to your application results in a
lower total size than dynamically linking.

The curl test harness can detect the use of some, but not all, of the
`--disable` statements suggested above. Use of these can cause tests relying
on those features to fail. The test harness can be manually forced to skip the
relevant tests by specifying certain key words on the `runtests.pl` command
line. Following is a list of appropriate key words for those configure options
that are not automatically detected:

 - `--disable-cookies`          !cookies
 - `--disable-dateparse`        !RETRY-AFTER !`CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION` !`CURLINFO_FILETIME` !`If-Modified-Since` !`curl_getdate` !`-z`
 - `--disable-libcurl-option`   !`--libcurl`
 - `--disable-verbose`          !verbose\ logs
