CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE(3)

CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE - (S)FTP commands to run after the transfer

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE,
                          struct curl_slist *cmds);

Pass a pointer to a linked list of FTP or SFTP commands to pass to the server after your FTP transfer request. The commands are only issues if no error occur. The linked list should be a fully valid list of struct curl_slist structs properly filled in as described for CURLOPT_QUOTE(3).

Disable this operation again by setting a NULL to this option.

NULL

SFTP and FTP

int main(void)
{
  struct curl_slist *cmdlist = NULL;
  cmdlist = curl_slist_append(cmdlist, "RNFR source-name");
  cmdlist = curl_slist_append(cmdlist, "RNTO new-name");
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/foo.bin");
    /* pass in the FTP commands to run after the transfer */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE, cmdlist);
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

If support for the protocols are built-in.

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
