- Long: fail-early
- Help: Fail on first transfer error, do not continue
- Added: 7.52.0
- Category: curl
- Example: --fail-early $URL https://two.example
- ---
- Fail and exit on the first detected transfer error.
- When curl is used to do multiple transfers on the command line, it will
- attempt to operate on each given URL, one by one. By default, it will ignore
- errors if there are more URLs given and the last URL's success will determine
- the error code curl returns. So early failures will be "hidden" by subsequent
- successful transfers.
- Using this option, curl will instead return an error on the first transfer
- that fails, independent of the amount of URLs that are given on the command
- line. This way, no transfer failures go undetected by scripts and similar.
- This option is global and does not need to be specified for each use of --next.
- This option does not imply --fail, which causes transfers to fail due to the
- server's HTTP status code. You can combine the two options, however note --fail
- is not global and is therefore contained by --next.
