Frequently Asked Questions about Curl Commands Converter

What is a curl command?

Curl (Client URL) is a command-line tool for transferring data with URLs. It supports numerous protocols including HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. Developers use curl commands to test APIs, download files, and make HTTP requests from the terminal.

Why convert curl commands to programming code?

Converting curl commands to programming code allows developers to quickly implement API calls in their applications. After testing an API with curl in the terminal, our converter helps bridge the gap between testing and implementation by generating equivalent code in your preferred programming language.

Which programming languages are supported?

Our curl command converter currently supports PHP, Python, JavaScript (with both fetch API and axios), Go, Ruby, and Java. We're continuously working to add more languages based on user feedback.

Is this curl converter tool free to use?

Yes, the curl command converter is completely free to use with no limitations. There's no registration required, and all conversions happen locally in your browser without sending your API requests to our servers.

How accurate is the converted code?

Our converter generates production-ready code that accurately translates curl commands to their programming language equivalents. We handle complex features like custom headers, authentication, request bodies, and more. However, we recommend reviewing the generated code before using it in production environments.

Can I convert curl commands with file uploads?

Yes, our converter handles curl commands with file uploads (using the -F or --form options) and generates the appropriate code for handling multipart/form-data requests in each supported programming language.

Curl Command Examples in Different Languages

Basic GET Request

Curl Command:

curl https://api.example.com/users

PHP:

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://api.example.com/users');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

Python:

import requests

response = requests.get('https://api.example.com/users')

JavaScript:

fetch('https://api.example.com/users')
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => console.log(data))
  .catch(error => console.error('Error:', error));

POST Request with JSON Data

Curl Command:

curl -X POST \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name":"John","email":"[email protected]"}' \
  https://api.example.com/users

Go:

package main

import (
	"bytes"
	"fmt"
	"net/http"
)

func main() {
	jsonData := []byte(`{"name":"John","email":"[email protected]"}`)
	
	req, err := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://api.example.com/users", bytes.NewBuffer(jsonData))
	req.Header.Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
	
	client := &http.Client{}
	resp, err := client.Do(req)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	defer resp.Body.Close()
}

Ruby:

require 'net/http'
require 'uri'
require 'json'

uri = URI.parse('https://api.example.com/users')
header = {'Content-Type' => 'application/json'}
data = {name: 'John', email: '[email protected]'}

http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
http.use_ssl = (uri.scheme == 'https')
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri.request_uri, header)
request.body = data.to_json

response = http.request(request)
