scurl

A wrapper for popular console HTTP client curl meant for humans who work with APIs in console.

It adds following features:

  • customizable multiple contexts for default settings
  • baseUrl can be set on context level, so you can use only relative path in console
  • shortcut for method calls, e.g. scurl post /pupils --data @./sample_pupil.json
  • automatic output beautification (primarily for JSON)

Contexts

Context is a profile for specific service. The contexts are saved as YAML files in context directory (by default ~/.scurl/contexts).

It can be treated as an intelligent .curlrc and -K options which is automatically applied depending on your session or parameters.

Normally context has a baseUrl, some headers and potentially other default curl options you want to have on each request. You can also specify rules which apply some of the options based on conditions you specify.

If you're used to .curlrc format you can use it inline within context YAML.

Example:

baseUrl: http://my.service.com:3000

headers:
  Accept-Language: fr-CH, fr;q=0.9, en;q=0.8, de;q=0.7, *;q=0.5

curlrc: |-
  proxy=http://username:password@10.0.0.1:8888
  --trace /tmp/trace_all
  -A "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US) AppleWebKit/525.13 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/0.2.149.27 Safari/525.13"
