How do I set a proxy for the cURL command?

cURL (Client URL) is a free, open-source command-line tool.

If you want to request a URL via cURL using a HTTP/SOCKS proxy, follow this guide to make it happen.

SOCKS Proxy:


                        curl -x "socks5://address:port" "https://ipinfo.io"

HTTP Proxy:


                        curl -x "http://address:port" "https://ipinfo.io"

If you don't have a proxy, get a free one now.

Check the cURL manual with this command:


                            curl --help
