Why parsing curl matters
Browser DevTools, Postman, and many APIs export curl commands. Reusing them in code requires extracting the body, escaping, and headers — a tedious manual job that this tool automates.
How parsing works
The parser tokenizes the command respecting bash quoting, identifies -X / --request, -H / --header, -d / --data variants (including --data-binary, --data-raw), and reassembles the request. Multi-line curl commands with backslash continuations are supported.
# Input
curl 'https://api.example.com/users' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer abc' \
--data-raw '{"name":"Ada"}'
# Parsed
{
"method": "POST",
"url": "https://api.example.com/users",
"headers": {"Authorization": "Bearer abc"},
"body": {"name": "Ada"}
}Use cases
Reproducing a DevTools "Copy as cURL" in code, importing examples from API docs into Postman, normalizing curl snippets before checking them into a repo.
Edge cases handled
URL-encoded form bodies are decoded into key/value pairs. JSON bodies are auto-formatted. Unknown flags are surfaced rather than silently dropped.
Privacy
All parsing is local. Your curl commands, including any tokens, stay in your browser.
