- make DEFAULT sections less repetitive

- make historic mentions use HISTORY

- generate the protocols section on `# %PROTOCOLS%` instead of guessing
  where to put it

- generate the availability section on `# %AVAILABILITY%` instead of
  guessing where to put it

- make the protocols section more verbose

Closes #14227

NAME

CURLOPT_SSH_PUBLIC_KEYFILE - public key file for SSH auth

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSH_PUBLIC_KEYFILE,
                          char *filename);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a char pointer pointing to a filename for your public key. If not used, libcurl defaults to $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa.pub if the HOME environment variable is set, and just "id_dsa.pub" in the current directory if HOME is not set.

If NULL (or an empty string) is passed to this option, libcurl passes no public key to the SSH library, which then rather derives it from the private key. If the SSH library cannot derive the public key from the private one and no public one is provided, the transfer fails.

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

DEFAULT

NULL

%PROTOCOLS%

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "sftp://example.com/file");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSH_PUBLIC_KEYFILE,
                     "/home/clarkkent/.ssh/id_rsa.pub");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

HISTORY

The "" trick was added in 7.26.0

%AVAILABILITY%

RETURN VALUE

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
