This plugin adds a 'Copy as Curl' action to HTTP requests, converting any request into its equivalent curl command. This is useful for debugging, sharing requests with team members, and executing requests in terminal environments where curl is available.

How It Works

The plugin analyzes the given HTTP request and generates a properly formatted curl command that includes:

HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.)
Request URL with query parameters
Headers (including authentication headers)
Request body (for POST, PUT, PATCH requests)
Authentication credentials

Usage

Configure an HTTP request as usual in Yaak
Right-click on the request in the sidebar
Select 'Copy as Curl'
The command is copied to your clipboard
Share or execute the command

Generated Curl Examples

Simple GET Request

curl -X GET 'https://api.example.com/users' \
  --header 'Accept: application/json'

POST Request with JSON Data

curl -X POST 'https://api.example.com/users' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'Accept: application/json' \
  --data '{
    "name": "John Doe",
    "email": "john@example.com"
  }'

Request with Multi-part Form Data

curl -X POST 'yaak.app' \
  --header 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \
  --form 'hello=world' \
  --form file=@/path/to/file.json

Request with Authentication

curl -X GET 'https://api.example.com/protected' \
  --user 'username:password'
