# NAME
CURLOPT_HSTS_CTRL - control HSTS behavior
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
#define CURLHSTS_ENABLE (1<<0)
#define CURLHSTS_READONLYFILE (1<<1)
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HSTS_CTRL, long bitmask);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security) means that an HTTPS server can instruct
the client to not contact it again over clear-text HTTP for a certain period
into the future. libcurl then automatically redirects HTTP attempts to such
hosts to instead use HTTPS. This is done by libcurl retaining this knowledge
in an in-memory cache.
Populate the long *bitmask* with the correct set of features to instruct
libcurl how to handle HSTS for the transfers using this handle.
# BITS
## CURLHSTS_ENABLE
Enable the in-memory HSTS cache for this handle.
## CURLHSTS_READONLYFILE
Make the HSTS file (if specified) read-only - makes libcurl not save the cache
to the file when closing the handle.
# DEFAULT
0. HSTS is disabled by default.
# PROTOCOLS
HTTPS and HTTP
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HSTS_CTRL, (long)CURLHSTS_ENABLE);
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
~~~
