<h3 id="command">Working with cURL as a command line client</h3>
<p> The <a href="http://curl.haxx.se/docs/">cURL documentation</a> is pretty comprehensive, but the following are some general points to remember for using cURL against Deltacloud. All the examples on this page assume the deltacloud server is running at localhost:3001: </p>
<ul>
<li>
Credentials are specified with <strong> --user "name:password" </strong>
</li>
<li>
Request headers are specified with <strong> -H "header: value" </strong>. For the "Accept" header Deltacloud offers a convenient way of specifying the desired response format; you can include the <strong>"?format="</strong> parameter into the request URL rather than setting the Accept header
</li>
<li>
HTTP verbs are specified with <strong>-X VERB</strong>
</li>
<li>
The <strong> -i </strong> flag will show you the response headers and the <strong> -v </strong> flag will show you request and response headers as well as info about cURL activity:
<pre>
curl -v -X DELETE --user "username:password" -H "Accept: application/xml" http://localhost:3001/api/keys/mykey
</pre>
</li>
</ul>
