kanapi is work in progress.
kanapi is a simple & light-weight API client written in Go/Wails and svelte.
- Simple API client to call REST APIs
- Show response in JSON format and the response headers
- Support for Dark mode!
On the todo list:
- Auth and header to be implemented
- Save API request history. Planned to be Git friendly
- Make keyboard friendly
- Add ability to run entire folders/collections
Ensure you have go
and node
installed.
Clone this repo.
git clone https://github.com/prashanth1k/kanapi
cd kanapi/frontend
npm i
cd ..
To run in live development mode, run wails dev
in the project directory. This will run a Vite development server that will provide very fast hot reload of your frontend changes. If you want to develop in a browser and have access to your Go methods, there is also a dev server that runs on http://localhost:34115. Connect to this in your browser, and you can call your Go code from devtools.
To build a redistributable, production mode package, use wails build
.
Yet another experiment with Golang + Wails + a webview that enables faster frontend development. This was a joy to write.
Additionally -
- The program is native to the OS - thanks to Go. Is lightweight - takes < 50 MB RAM to run
- Fast to execute
