Hi,

you can specify the private and public keys for SSH/SSL as file paths.
We'd like to avoid with LibCURL to write them to a file and just pass them as data blob or text encoded.

SSLCERT, SSH_PUBLIC_KEYFILE and SSH_PRIVATE_KEYFILE all with _Text or so option.
Could this be added?

  1. This is not a bug or a problem but a feature-request, and we don't track them here. This issue will be closed soon.
  2. It's just code so it can certainly be done. There are probably a lot of challenges to do that (nicely) though, since we have many different TLS back-ends and two SSH back-ends, and some of them might be easy and some might offer resistance.
