curlconverter VS insomnia

Simple way would be to add a “curl” options, looks like you’d just need to write up a method that matches this Request interface [0] to some curl command substrings you mash together.

Problem is of course: the headers and options are all going to be included. You could make it so it organizes them better though, maybe indenting and grouping like-options together so it’s easier to remove stuff.

I made a fork of the Chrome DevTools that adds exactly this. You can tell Chrome to use a different version of the DevTools if you start it from the command line

Someone added a ColdFusion Markup Language generator to https://curlconverter.com/cfml/ last year and after a few months I decided to remove it since I've never heard of it so nobody could possibly be using it, and the next day the guy who added support for it and 3 other people complained about it, so it seems like they're out there.

Relevant tools: - Browser dev tools and front-end tooling to debug JS and reconstruct requests in your code - grep.app and SourceGraph to check open-source parsers for some URLs (often, there are such repositories) - curlconverter to quickly draft a script from the cURL command - Regex and regex playgrounds to extract data from inline JavaScript - GraphQL introspection tools - Optionally, Fiddler or Wireshark to intercept and debug network requests (I don't use but my teammate does)

Original author here. Many smart people have contributed code over the years, but one warrants special mention.

About a year ago, verhovsky showed up out of nowhere. He rewrote the core of the application and increased the professionalism across the board. (dedicated domain, github page hosting, UI refresh, privacy improvements, and much more)

The tree-sitter PR is a monster achievement: https://github.com/curlconverter/curlconverter/pull/278

Search for parseAnsiCString in there. I don't think that had ever been implemented in JavaScript before.

For you, verhovsky, 10x engineer might be an understatement. Thank you!

Use tools like Postman or Insomnia to test the API endpoints and ensure they behave as expected.

We will be performing all of the authentication requests manually, however for testing purposes, you might want to use an API testing tool such as Postman or Insomnia.

For a very long time, the go-to tool was curl. Great, always available command line tool. Unfortunately, there is one small issue. It’s hard to keep requests and collect them in collections, it’s great for one-time shots or debugging, but for constant working with API could be painful. To solve it, I started working with tools like Postman/Insomnia. Then eh... strange licensing model, or changes which occurred from Kong side click, definitely push me again for some lookup. After checking different very popular tools and those not such well known I decided to use… Ansible. Sounds strange right? Let me explain this decision. For example, look at this code.

At first, I used Postman for testing APIs because it had a lot of features. But I switched to Insomnia because it was easier to use and kept everything organized. The big problem with Insomnia was that it deleted all my saved work when it made me create an account to keep using it.

Often used for cases where a project exposes a REST or other type of API service. Open API is a popular method of documenting such API services. It can also be used along side tools such as Swagger Codegen to produce boilerplate code for API interaction / testing purposes. There may also be support files for popular API testing tools such as Postman or Insomnia. This makes it easier at a glance to see what data is coming back from a call so the user knows how to handle parsing the data.

Well, there is this website that I have been trying to scrape for a few days now. I had tried everything from scrapy splash on docker to almost giving up because I read somewhere that it was JavaScript rendered. Since the source code from the inspect part of the developer tools was different from the source code from the view-source:https//... on the same developer tools.How could this be possible? Then I kept searching on internet and found this concept; where you can mimic web-browsers requests from a server using an API program,and it worked magically. Some of the API programs are postman and insomnia. I prefer using insomnia for this particular case , feel free to use any other API program of your choice.
