Run a series of HTTP(S) requests specified in a plain-text file. Requests are
separated by comment lines, starting with a #. Cookies are stored
automatically between the requests within a given file. Environment variables
can be injected into the requests by using ${ENVIRONMENT_VAR} in the
specification file. Inspired by
restclient.el.
Install using stack:
stack install
surf "examples/basic-requests.http"See the examples/ directory for more example specification files.
When using a HTTP(S) client to test a HTTP API it is useful to store the
requests you create for re-use later. Using plain-text makes sharing these
saved requests with others, or adding them to version-control simple.
restclient.el solves that, but requires an Emacs installation. The goal here
is to create a stand-alone CLI based on a similar idea.
