Axios request
About this tool
Axios remains the go-to HTTP client for many JavaScript and Node projects. This converter parses your cURL command and produces a complete axios(config) call — method, URL, headers, JSON or form data, and basic-auth credentials mapped to Axios's auth option.
Includes the import line and try/catch or .then/.catch scaffolding, ready to run.
How to use it
- Paste a cURL command from any documentation.
- Choose async/await style and whether to include the import.
- Copy the generated Axios code.
- Adjust variable names to taste — the request logic is complete.
Useful ways to apply it
- Porting API examples into an existing Axios codebase.
- Converting Postman-exported cURL into Node.js scripts.
- Standardizing team snippets on one HTTP client.
- Comparing fetch vs Axios shapes for the same request.
Frequently asked questions
How is basic auth handled?
-u user:pass becomes the Axios auth: { username, password } option rather than a manual header.
Does it output error handling?
Yes — try/catch (async mode) or .catch, both reading error.response.data when available.
Form data support?
-F fields generate FormData code and pass it as data, letting Axios set the multipart boundary automatically.
