Convert cURL commands to JavaScript, Python, and PHP

Paste any cURL request copied from Chrome DevTools, Postman, or API documentation to extract URLs, HTTP methods, headers, query parameters, cookies, and JSON request bodies into ready-to-run application code.

Tokenization, Deconstruction & Structural Analysis

The parser decomposes complex strings, commands, or protocol payloads into discrete, human-readable components. It isolates headers, query parameters, payload arguments, and metadata flags, displaying them in a structured key-value layout. This is essential for debugging failing HTTP requests, analyzing authentication tokens, or inspecting browser environment variables.

Technical Reference & Standards

Deconstructing cURL Command Flags & Syntax

cURL commands convey HTTP parameters through shell arguments: -X for request methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE), -H for headers (Authorization, Content-Type), -d / --data-raw for request bodies, and -b for cookie sessions. This parser tokenizes shell flags, unescapes quoted JSON strings, resolves multi-line backslash line continuations, and isolates query parameters cleanly.

From Chrome DevTools Network Tab to Production Code

The standard developer workflow for reverse-engineering endpoints is right-clicking a network row in Chrome or Firefox DevTools and selecting 'Copy as cURL'. Pasting that raw command here instantly generates async JavaScript fetch(), axios, Python requests, or PHP cURL syntax ready to integrate into your application.

Common Use Cases

  • Copy a request from Chrome DevTools and convert it to JavaScript fetch() or Python requests
  • Extract headers, cookies, and body from cURL commands for API documentation
  • Debug failing API calls by parsing the full cURL command into structured components
  • Convert cURL examples from API docs to the language your project uses

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a cURL parser do?
A cURL parser reads a cURL command and converts it to other formats like JavaScript fetch(), Python requests, or PHP. Useful when you copy a request from browser dev tools and need code for your app.
How to convert cURL to fetch?
Paste your cURL command in the tool. It extracts the URL, method, headers, and body. Click the format you need (fetch, Python, etc.) and copy the generated code.
