Convert Terminal cURL to PHP cURL Script

Question

I'm trying to post the following value into an API, and get back the response, it's working fine on terminal with curl command, but not on my PHP file running on localhost with MAMP.

{"userCode":"user478","imei":"39BB4E91-71E8-468D-9FDE-AA2222A93F04","deviceModel":"iPhone5,3","email":"[email protected]"}

Here's my PHP code that isn't working:

function doRequest($method, $url) {
    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, false);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_ENCODING, 'gzip', 'deflate');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "CarteiraPagamento/1.0.3 (iPhone; iOS 9.3.2; Scale/2.00)");
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIESESSION, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, getcwd().'/cookies/out.txt');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, getcwd().'/cookies/out.txt');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, 'https://example.com/');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);
    if ($method == 'POST') {
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);                 
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, '{"userCode":"user478","imei":"39BB4E91-71E8-468D-9FDE-AA2222A93F04","deviceModel":"iPhone5,3","email":"[email protected]"}');    
    }

When I run the curl command on terminal, I get the right response.

curl -i -s -k  -X 'POST' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8' -H 'User-Agent: CarteiraPagamento/1.0.3 (iPhone; iOS 9.3.2; Scale/2.00)' \
--data-binary $'{\"userCode\":\"user478\",\"imei\":\"39BB4E91-71E8-468D-9FDE-AA2222A93F04\",\"deviceModel\":\"iPhone5,3\",\"email\":\"[email protected]\"}' \
'https://ws.example.com/example'

How can I convert this command to work with PHP curl?

When I try with PHP Script, I get: {"errorCode":"1000","message":"Request can not be completed. Please try again later."} but when I try on terminal, with curl command, I get the correct response, with the data I want. — Vinny

Try to add curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, true); — Ismail RBOUH

I already fixed it, with a different solution, thanks anyway. — Vinny

Copy your terminal curl script and import it to Postman. Then convert it to PHP CURL from export options. No need to transform manually.

I always get this error when I try to import the cURL. Error while importing Curl: Zero or Multiple option-less arguments. Only one is supported (the URL)

It worked after adding this line to the cURL:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8'));
