About CurlCraft β€” cURL to Code Converter

A cURL command copied from API documentation or straight out of browser DevTools (“Copy as cURL”) is genuinely useful for testing an endpoint from a terminal, but it’s not code you can drop into an actual application β€” someone still has to translate it by hand into whatever language the app is actually written in.

This tool does that translation automatically. Paste a cURL command, pick a target language, and get working code that does the same request β€” same URL, same method, same headers, same body.

A worked example: curl -X POST https://api.example.com/login -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"username":"test","active":true}' converts to Python as a real dict β€” data = {"username": "test", "active": True} β€” not a raw JSON string. That capitalization matters for more than style: JSON’s lowercase true is invalid Python syntax, so code containing it wouldn’t run at all. The same command converts to JavaScript as a proper fetch() call with JSON.stringify() wrapping a real object, and to PHP as a complete, ready-to-run cURL handle setup.

Multi-line cURL commands (the kind with backslash line continuations, common when copying from documentation) are handled the same as single-line ones β€” paste it exactly as given, with no manual reformatting needed first.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this work with cURL commands copied from browser DevTools?

Yes β€” "Copy as cURL" output, including multi-line commands with backslash continuations, works directly without reformatting.

Will the generated Python code actually run?

Yes β€” when the request body is JSON, it's converted to a proper Python dict with correctly capitalized True/False/None, not left as raw JSON syntax that would fail in Python.

Does this support Basic Auth?

Yes β€” a -u user:pass flag is correctly converted to each language's standard auth pattern.

What if my cURL command has no request body?

Handled correctly β€” the generated code simply omits the body/data argument rather than including an empty one.
