Does this converter support cURL namespaces and nested structures?

Yes. The cURL parser reconstructs the full request — method, URL, headers, body, auth, cookies — from the command line. The parser handles deeply nested structures and generates matching nested Elixir HTTP request call definitions.

How are optional fields handled in the Elixir output?

Fields that may be absent or null in your CURL are marked as optional in the generated Elixir code. Note: The HTTP client is an external dependency — add it to mix.exs.

Can I use the output directly in a Elixir/Phoenix services project?

Yes. The generated Elixir code follows idiomatic patterns for Elixir/Phoenix services — you can copy it directly into your project.

Does this work for large CURL payloads?

Yes. The converter is optimized for large and deeply nested CURL structures, running entirely in the browser without page reloads or server round-trips.

Why automate cURL-to-Elixir conversion?

Writing Elixir HTTP client code from scratch based on a cURL command is:

Tedious — manually translating flags, headers, and body formats
Error-prone — easy to miss headers, mistype URLs, or forget auth
Slow — copying from browser DevTools and reformatting takes time

This converter does it instantly — paste cURL, get Elixir code.

Frequently asked questions

Does this support all cURL flags?

The converter supports all common HTTP-related cURL flags including -X, -H, -d, --data-raw, -F, -u, -b, -A, and --compressed. Shell-specific features like environment variables and subcommands may not be fully supported.

Is my cURL data sent to a server?

No. All conversion runs locally in your browser using client-side JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your cURL command never leaves your machine.

Can I use the output directly in my Elixir project?

Yes. The generated code follows idiomatic Elixir patterns and is ready to paste into your project.

Does this work with large or complex cURL commands?

Yes. The converter handles multi-line cURL commands, complex headers, and large request bodies — all processed locally in your browser.
