Hello,
in master, there's a new DSM module 'mod_curl' which can be used to
retrieve web pages or files via http, to use http forms, and thus to
use RESTful APIs.
It can be used as simple as that:
set(q="SIP Express Media Server");
curl.post(http://www.google.de/webhp, $q);
log(3, $curl.out);
For the list of functions, please have a look at the documentation
reproduced below.
Many thanks to TelTech Systems, who sponsored the original development
and agreed to open sourcing it now.

mod_curl can be used to retrieve web pages via http/https, use RESTful
APIs etc.
Note: running curl functions is blocking - be prepared for some
latency in processing
if threadpool is enabled.
Dependencies: libCURL - libcurl-dev (http://curl.haxx.se/)
Control Variables
