Doing “curl -u” with Guzzle

Question

I'm working with a service that requires me to call it via:

curl -u username:password -X POST "http://www.theirurl.com"

I'd like to use Guzzle rather than do a raw CURL, however. Is there a way to have Guzzle pass the -u parameter? I tried User-Agent, but that's not correct.

Answer 1

That's not a user agent, that's HTTP Basic Authentication.

$client->post('http://www.theirurl.com/', ['auth' => ['username', 'password']]);
