curl-for-axios

Versions

• 0.0.2 - Version compatible with CommonJS and Modules. Compatible with TypeScript, Frontend and Backend (Node)

Description

This module is an axios third-party module to log any axios request as a cURL command in the console.

How it works

The module makes use of axios' interceptors to log the request as a cURL command. It also stores it in the response's config object. Therefore, the command can be seen in the app's console, as well as in the res.config.curlCommand property of the response.

How to use it

curl-for-axios is super easy to use. First you'll have to install it.

npm i curl-for-axios

Then all you have to do is import and instanciate curl-for-axios in your app. Here's a sample:

import axios from "axios";
import curl from "curl-for-axios";

// initializing curl-for-axios with your axios instance
curl(axios);

axios.post("http://localhost:3000/", { dummy: "data-post" })
  .then(res => {
    console.log(res.config.curlCommand);
    // curl -X POST "http://localhost:3000/" -H "Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded" --data '{"dummy":"data-post"}'
  }).catch(err => {
    console.log(err);
  });
