Acerca de Chuleta de cURL
Esta chuleta de curl es una referencia práctica para la herramienta de línea de comandos HTTP más útil: fundamentos, métodos HTTP, cabeceras, envío de datos, autenticación, descarga y subida de archivos, cookies, TLS/SSL, proxies, depuración y salida, y tiempos de espera y reintentos.
curl tiene cientos de opciones y todo el mundo recuerda unas diez. Cada fila muestra un comando completo — un POST en JSON, una cabecera personalizada, una descarga reanudable, un handshake TLS detallado — con una descripción de una línea, para que copies la fórmula exacta en lugar de leer una página de manual en plena depuración.
La chuleta es gratuita y funciona en el cliente: filtra los comandos en vivo con el buscador, salta entre secciones desde la tabla de contenidos fija, copia cualquier comando con un clic e imprime la página para tus sesiones de depuración de APIs.
Cómo usar Chuleta de cURL
- Recorre las secciones, desde Fundamentos y Métodos HTTP hasta Depuración y salida y Tiempos de espera y reintentos.
- Busca una opción o tarea como POST, header o proxy para filtrar los comandos al instante.
- Salta a una sección como Autenticación o TLS / SSL mediante la barra lateral fija.
- Haz clic en un comando o en su icono de copia para copiarlo y luego sustituye la URL y los valores de ejemplo.
- Imprime la chuleta para tener una referencia de curl junto a tu terminal.
