CurlEx—HTTP get using the curl command line app
Motivation
I got frustrated with Unknown CA errors from Erlang. Meanwhile, curl works just fine with the sites in question:
I couldn’t find a working Elixir lib that uses curl. So I started this ultra-simple and naive (but tested) one.
Usage
iex(1)> CurlEx.get!("https://google.com")
"<html>...</html>"
Currently, Microsoft Edge / Windows is the supported custom User Agent:
iex(2)> CurlEx.get_with_user_agent!("https://google.com", :microsoft_edge_windows)
"<html>...</html>"

That’s because the server has since been reconfigured to send the missing intermediate CA. (curl fetches missing intermediate CA certificates using the URL in the AIA extension, but Erlang’s ssl does not, also when using Mint/req)
