curl2tsung

A simple utility to convert a curl request to tsung's xml request. Useful for quickly generating tsung's xml conf rather than typing xml yourself.

Firefox and Chrome support copying an http request as curl command from the web developer tools. You can use that feature to copy a request as curl and then replace curl with curl2tsung script. It currently supports only the most common curl options I encountered while dealing curl commands generated with firefox and chrome developer tools.

Usage

A request to github.com, 'copied as curl' from chrome developer tools looks like this

curl 'https://github.com/' -H 'Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8' -H 'Connection: keep-alive' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, sdch, br' -H 'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.8' -H 'Upgrade-Insecure-Requests: 1' -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/54.0.2840.71 Safari/537.36' --compressed

Replacing curl with curl2tsung utility generates following output:

<request>
  <http method="GET" url="https://github.com/" version="1.1">
    <http_header name="Accept-Language" value="en-US,en;q=0.8"/>
    <http_header name="Accept-Encoding" value="gzip, deflate, sdch, br"/>
    <http_header name="Accept" value="text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8"/>
    <http_header name="User-Agent" value="Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/54.0.2840.71 Safari/537.36"/>
    <http_header name="Connection" value="keep-alive"/>
    <http_header name="Upgrade-Insecure-Requests" value="1"/>
  </http>
</request>
