      PHP

      curl_* 

      
                
      
                    
                    
                
      
                
      
                    Tip: press Ctrl/Cmd + Enter to copy the PHP.

                The command is split into arguments the same way a shell would, then each flag is
                mapped onto its PHP cURL equivalent: -H becomes
                CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, -d becomes
                CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, -u becomes
                CURLOPT_USERPWD, and so on. Anything that cannot be translated is
                called out as a note instead of silently dropped. The generated snippet is plain
                PHP using the bundled cURL extension, and your command never leaves this page.
