Why Use This Tool?
- Speed Up API Integration: Convert cURL commands copied from DevTools or documentation directly into production application code.
- Multi-Language Code Generation: Instantly switch between JavaScript, Python, Go, PHP, and Node.js code snippets.
- Parse Request Headers & Data: Automatically parse authorization headers (`-H "Authorization: Bearer token"`) and JSON body payloads.
How to Use
- Paste cURL command (e.g. `curl -X POST https://api.example.com/data -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{"name":"John"}"`).
- Select Target Language (JavaScript Fetch, Python Requests, Go, PHP).
- Copy the generated code snippet.
Real Working Example
Input:
cURL: curl https://api.example.com/users -H "Authorization: Bearer secret123"
Output Result:
JavaScript Fetch Code:
fetch("https://api.example.com/users", {
headers: {
"Authorization": "Bearer secret123"
}
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => console.log(data));
