How to Use Code to cURL Converter

How to Use the Code to cURL Converter:

  1. Select the Source Language: Click one of the four language tabs at the top — JS Fetch, Axios, Python, or PHP — to tell the tool which kind of code you are converting. Switching tabs loads a ready-made example for that language.

  2. Paste Your Code: Paste your HTTP request code into the textarea. The tool accepts standard patterns: fetch() calls, axios() config or shorthand calls, requests.METHOD() calls, and curl_setopt_array() PHP code. You do not need to paste an entire file — just the request block is enough.

  3. Click Convert to cURL: Click the Convert to cURL button. The tool parses the method, URL, headers, and body from your code and generates a formatted cURL command in the output panel.

  4. Read the cURL Output: The generated cURL command uses backslash line continuation for readability. Each -H flag is on its own line. If the request has a body, it appears as a -d flag at the end. The command is ready to paste into any terminal.

  5. Copy the Command: Click the Copy button to copy the cURL command to your clipboard. Paste it into your terminal, Postman, or share it with a teammate.

  6. Check the Parsed Summary: The Parsed Summary table shows what the tool detected — method, URL, headers, and body. Use this to verify the parse was correct before running the command.

  7. Reset for New Input: Click Reset to clear the textarea and output. Switch language tabs to load a fresh example for a different language.

Common Use Cases:

  • Terminal debugging: Convert a failing API call from your codebase into cURL to reproduce and test the request directly in a terminal.
  • Sharing requests: Turn a code snippet into a portable cURL command to share with a teammate or file in a bug report.
  • API documentation: Convert your internal SDK calls into cURL examples for external-facing docs.
  • Cross-language translation: Take a Python requests snippet from a tutorial and get the equivalent cURL to test it before porting to your language.
  • CI/CD testing: Extract cURL commands from integration test code to create standalone smoke test scripts.
