cURL to Code Converter

Paste a cURL command and instantly convert it to JavaScript, Python, Go, PHP, Ruby, or Java code.

About cURL to Code

  • Paste any cURL command from browser DevTools, API docs, or your terminal — it converts to working code instantly.
  • Supports common flags: -X -H -d -u -F -L -k and more.
  • Line continuations (\) are handled automatically — paste multi-line commands directly.
  • Everything runs in your browser — no data is sent over the network.

Why cURL converter privacy is critical

cURL commands are the most dangerous text developers paste into online tools. A typical cURL command includes: Authorization headers with Bearer tokens or Basic Auth credentials, API keys in query parameters or custom headers, cookie values containing session tokens, request bodies with user data or payment information, and internal API endpoint URLs revealing your infrastructure. Converting a cURL command on a server-based tool sends ALL of this — the full authentication credential, the target endpoint, and the payload — to a third party. DevBolt parses and converts cURL commands entirely in your browser.

Safe for production API debugging

When debugging API issues, you often copy cURL commands from browser DevTools, Postman, or production logs. These commands contain live credentials. DevBolt converts them to Python requests, JavaScript fetch, Go http, PHP, Ruby, Rust, and Java — all without transmitting the command to any server. The parser handles headers, cookies, data flags, multipart forms, and authentication options locally.

What credentials are embedded in cURL commands

Developers routinely paste cURL commands containing: -H 'Authorization: Bearer eyJ...' (JWT access tokens), -H 'X-API-Key: sk_live_...' (Stripe and other API keys), -u 'user:password' (Basic Auth credentials), -b 'session=abc123' (session cookies), -d '{"credit_card": "4242..."}' (payment data), and internal URLs like https://internal-api.company.com (infrastructure details). Every one of these should remain private.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to convert cURL commands with API keys?

With DevBolt, yes. The cURL parser runs entirely in your browser — your API keys, Bearer tokens, and authentication headers are never sent to any server. The conversion to Python, JavaScript, or other languages happens locally.

Does DevBolt store or log converted cURL commands?

No. DevBolt has no server-side component for the cURL converter. The command is parsed in your browser's memory and the generated code exists only in the output panel. Nothing is stored, logged, or transmitted.

Can I convert cURL commands with sensitive request bodies?

Yes. Request bodies containing customer data, payment information, or internal business data are processed entirely in your browser. The converter handles -d, --data, --data-raw, and multipart form data — all client-side.
