Convert command line cURL to PHP cURL

Question

I have never done any curling before so need some help. I tried to solve this problem from examples but can't understand it!

I have a curl command that I can successfully run from the linux (ubuntu) command line to put files into the wiki via the api.

I need to incorporate this curl command into a PHP script I'm building.

How do I translate this curl command so that it works in a PHP script?

curl -b cookie.txt -X PUT
     --data-binary "@test.png"
     -H "Content-Type: image/png"
     "http://hostname/@api/deki/pages/=TestPage/files/=test.png"
     -0

The cookie.txt contains the authentication, but I have no problem putting it in clear text into the script since this is only run by me.

@test.png must be a variable, such as $filename

http://hostname/@api/deck/pages/=TestPage/files/= must be a variable, such as $pageurl

Thanks for your help.

Answer 2

starting point:

<?php

$pageurl = "http://hostname/@api/deki/pages/=TestPage/files/=";
$filename = "test.png";

$theurl = $pageurl . $filename;

$ch = curl_init($theurl);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, ...); // -b
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'PUT'); // -X
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, TRUE); // --data-binary
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, ['Content-Type: image/png']); // -H
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION, CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_0); // -0

...
?>
