cURL to Code Converter

Convert common cURL commands into JavaScript fetch(), Axios, Python requests, and Node.js fetch code.

How do you convert cURL to application code? Parse the request URL, method, headers, authentication and body, then map those values into the target HTTP client's request configuration.

  • Key formula: cURL flags become a normalized request model, which is serialized into fetch options, an Axios config, or Python requests arguments without executing the request.

Conversion occurs locally and never executes the command. Remove real tokens, cookies, credentials and personal data before pasting.

cURL input + code output

cURL command

Generated code

const response = await fetch("https://api.example.com/orders", {
  "method": "POST",
  "headers": {
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
  },
  "body": "{\"sku\":\"A1\",\"quantity\":2}"
});
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`HTTP ${response.status}`);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

Supported cURL subset

The converter understands common request, header, data, user-auth and URL flags plus quoted multiline commands. Unknown flags produce a visible error rather than being silently discarded.

Shell variables, command substitutions, file uploads, cookies, certificates, proxies and platform-specific quoting require manual conversion.

Review generated request code

Generated code preserves query parameters already present in the URL and attempts to retain JSON bodies as structured values. It cannot infer response content type, retries, timeouts or application-specific error handling.

Never commit live bearer tokens, Basic credentials or session cookies into source control.

Good questions. Clear answers.

Does this converter execute the cURL command?

No. It only parses supported text locally and generates source code. It does not contact the URL, resolve shell variables, read referenced files, or send credentials.

Which cURL options are supported?

The parser supports common URL arguments, -X/--request, -H/--header, -d and common --data variants, -u/--user, --url, multiline backslashes, and quoted values. Complex shell expansion and the full cURL option set are intentionally unsupported.

Is generated Axios or Python code dependency-free?

No. Axios output requires the axios package and Python output requires requests. JavaScript and Node.js outputs use fetch; the Node output targets Node.js 18 or newer.
