Curl to Python
Curl to Python:
Curl is a command-line tool used for transferring data using various protocols. It’s quite common to want to convert a curl command into Python code, typically using the requests
library.
Here is a simple example:
Curl command:
curl -X GET 'https://api.github.com/users/octocat'
The equivalent Python code with requests
:
import requests
response = requests.get('https://api.github.com/users/octocat')
print(response.json())
In more complex cases, where there are headers, data, or cookies in the curl command, the conversion becomes slightly more complex.
For example:
Curl command:
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"username":"xyz","password":"xyz"}' 'https://api.github.com/users/octocat'
The equivalent Python code:
import requests
import json
headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
data = {'username':'xyz', 'password':'xyz'}
response = requests.post('https://api.github.com/users/octocat', headers=headers, data=json.dumps(data))
print(response.json())
In this code, we set the headers and data in separate Python dictionaries. Note that the data is converted to a JSON string using json.dumps()
before being sent in the POST request.
Remember to replace 'https://api.github.com/users/octocat'
and data such as {'username':'xyz', 'password':'xyz'}
with your actual URL and data.
