Code Generation
Once a request is configured in Curlex, you can generate the equivalent code in multiple languages. Paste it directly into your application, a README, or a CI script.
Generating a Code Snippet
- Open a request.
- In the request toolbar, click More ▾ → Generate Code.
- Choose a target language from the list.
- Copy the generated code.
Supported Languages
| Language / Library | Output |
|---|---|
| cURL | A shell command you can run in any terminal |
| JavaScript — Fetch | Modern browser or Node.js fetch() code |
| JavaScript — Axios | Axios HTTP client code |
| Node.js | Native http / https module code |
| Python | requests library code |
| PHP | PHP cURL code |
| Java | OkHttp library code |
| Dart | Dart http package code |
All authentication settings, headers, and body content are reflected in the generated code.
Copy as cURL
For a quick cURL snippet without opening the code generator, right-click any request in the sidebar and choose Copy as cURL. The command is copied to your clipboard immediately.
This is useful when sharing a request with a teammate, filing a bug report, or running a quick check from the terminal.
Variable Substitution in Generated Code
If the request uses {{variables}}, the generated code shows the resolved values from the active environment — not the placeholder syntax. Make sure the correct environment is active before generating code if you need specific values in the output.
