CurlThin is a NET Standard compatible binding library against libcurl.
It includes a modern wrapper for curl_multi interface which uses polling with libuv library instead of using inefficient select.
CurlThin has a very thin abstraction layer, which means that writing the code is as close as possible to writing purely in libcurl. libcurl has extensive documentation and relatively strong support of community and not having additional abstraction layer makes it easier to search solutions for your problems.
Using this library is very much like working with cURL's raw C API.

| Package | NuGet | MyGet | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
CurlThin |
 |
 |
The C# wrapper for libcurl. |
CurlThin.Native |
 |
 |
Contains embedded libcurl native binaries for x86 and x64 Windows. |
If you have libcurl or libcurl.dll already in your PATH directory, you don't need to install CurlThin.Native package. Once you have installed CurlThin.Native NuGet package, call following method just once before you use cURL:
CurlResources.Init();It will extract following files to your application output directory
| Windows x86 | Windows x64 | Description |
|---|---|---|
| libcurl.dll | libcurl.dll | The multiprotocol file transfer library. |
| libssl-1_1.dll | libssl-1_1-x64.dll | Portion of OpenSSL which supports TLS ( SSL and TLS Protocols), and depends on libcrypto. |
| libcrypto-1_1.dll | libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll | Provides the fundamental cryptographic routines used by libssl. |
| curl-ca-bundle.crt | curl-ca-bundle.crt | Certificate Authority (CA) bundle. You can use it via CURLOPT_CAINFO. |
