cURL to Fetch

Convert cURL commands to equivalent JavaScript fetch() code. Handles method, headers and request body — paste the curl snippet and get ready-to-use JS.

About This Tool

QuickKit cURL to Fetch converts cURL commands to equivalent JavaScript fetch() code. Paste a curl snippet with any combination of -X method, -H headers and -d body flags, and get a clean async fetch() block ready to paste into your frontend or Node.js project.

Features

  • Method Conversion — Maps -X / --request to the fetch method option. Defaults to POST when a body is present.
  • Header Conversion — Converts all -H / --header flags into a headers object.
  • Body Conversion — Maps -d / --data / --data-raw / --data-binary to the fetch body option as a JSON string.
  • Quote Handling — Correctly strips single and double quotes from curl arguments — common in copied terminal commands.
  • Copy Output — One-click copy of the generated fetch() code.

FAQ

Does it handle --data-binary?
Yes. --data-binary is treated the same as -d and its value is placed in the body field.
Does it support --compressed?
The --compressed flag is not added to the fetch output because browsers handle gzip decompression transparently.
Will it handle multipart form data?
Not yet. Multipart payloads require FormData construction and are complex to auto-convert. The tool handles plain text and JSON bodies.
Can I use the output in Node.js?
Yes. Node.js 18+ includes a native fetch() API compatible with this output. For older Node.js, add node-fetch as a dependency.
