Posting
A powerful HTTP client that lives in your terminal.
Posting is an HTTP client, not unlike Postman and Insomnia. As a TUI application, it can be used over SSH and enables efficient keyboard-centric workflows. Your requests are stored locally in simple YAML files, so they're easy to read and version control.
Some notable features include:
- "jump mode" navigation
- environments/variables
- autocompletion
- syntax highlighting using tree-sitter
- Vim keys
- customizable keybindings
- user-defined themes
- run Python code before and after requests
- extensive configuration
- open in $EDITOR/$PAGER
- import curl commands by pasting them into the URL bar
- export requests as cURL commands
- import from Postman and OpenAPI specs
- a command palette for quickly accessing functionality
