Show HN: embedcurl.com - Pretty curl commands for your web site or blog
I see a lot of API docs and blogs posting curl commands that are really hard to read and I figured I could make them easier to read and add some niceties like easier copy/paste, tooltips on flags, etc. They also gracefully degrade if javascript isn't enabled back to a <pre> element.
The parsing is done in Python with shlex and argparse (thanks to my co-founder Frank for helping with that part). We're running this on our production infrastructure so it should scale just fine.
My friends at loader.io have already integrated it with their API docs: http://docs.loader.io/api/v2/put/tests/:test_id/run.html
I'd really like your feedback, especially if you enter a command that doesn't parse correctly.
Thanks!
