tiny lib to convert data from PHP request to CURL command. Then, CURL command can be imported into Postman with 1 click, so it is PHP to Postman export tool.
php2curl
Convert PHP request to raw cURL instantly.
This tiny lib analyzes PHP globals ($_REQUEST, etc.) and creates identical cURL command out of it.
You can then immediately import it to Postman in 2 clicks via Import -> Paste Raw Text
Possible use cases
-
importing web request from PHP code to plain cURL
-
importing web request from PHP code to Postman
-
cowboy style debugging while xdebug is not available (e.g. production)
-
trying to debug a microservice
-
sharing a request with a co-worker
-
so on
Examples
- zero configuration! copy/paste single line, initiate web request, result will be found in
$curlvariable:
$curl = eval(file_get_contents('http://bit.ly/_php2curl')); // $curl variable contains the cURL command here
-
if you think eval is not acceptable, you can just copy the contents of
generated/snippet.phpand paste it anywhere in your project.$curlvariable will hold the desired cURL command. -
you can install the library as usual via composer (see example.php)
composer require biganfa/php2curl
