+.TH CURLOPT_PINNEDPUBLICKEY 3 "27 Aug 2014" "libcurl 7.38.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLOPT_PINNEDPUBLICKEY \- set pinned public key
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PINNEDPUBLICKEY, char *pinnedpubkey);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. The string should be
+the file name of your pinned public key. The format expected is "PEM" or "DER".
+
+When negotiating a TLS or SSL connection, the server sends a certificate
+indicating its identity. A public key is extracted from this certificate and
+if it does not exactly match the public key provided to this option, curl will
+abort the connection before sending or receiving any data.
+.SH DEFAULT
+NULL
+.SH PROTOCOLS
+All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3, SMTPS etc.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.nf
+CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
+if(curl) {
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PINNEDPUBLICKEY, "/etc/publickey.der");
+
+ /* Perform the request */
+ curl_easy_perform(curl);
+}
+.fi
+.SH PUBLIC KEY EXTRACTION
+If you do not have the server's public key file you can extract it from the
+server's certificate.
+.nf
+openssl x509 -in www.test.com.pem -pubkey -noout > www.test.com.pubkey.pem
+.fi
+The public key is output in PEM format and contains a header, base64 data and a
+footer:
+.nf
+-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
+[BASE 64 DATA]
+-----END PUBLIC KEY-----
+.fi
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+Added in 7.39.0 for OpenSSL, GnuTLS and GSKit. Added in 7.43.0 for
+NSS and wolfSSL/CyaSSL. Other SSL backends not supported.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Returns CURLE_OK if TLS enabled, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or
+CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
