• Emacs Advent Calendar 9: devdocs, code-cells, dREPL, etc.

  Plz-see: Interactive HTTP client, similar to restclient and verb, but using Elisp instead of a special text-based syntax. Source: 5 months ago

• Hurl 4.0.0

  Emacs enthusiasts have https://github.com/pashky/restclient.el I see some parallels to Hurl, but having everything inside Emacs is hard to beat, just thinking about using M-x jq-interactivly for json responses ... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Hurl, run and test HTTP requests with plain text

  I recently switch from custom Bash wrappers around curl to restclient.el [1]. It has similar features. Especially nice is the integration with jq for fetching specific data (or inspection of results with jq-mode). And, whoever is inclined to appreciate it, the fact that I can stay within Emacs. No need to get familiar with a new UI/UX. [1]: https://github.com/pashky/restclient.el. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Show HN: Restfox – A web based HTTP client inspired by Insomnia and Postman

  Although I mainly stick with curl or requests due to muscle memory, there's also restclient.el https://github.com/pashky/restclient.el. I imagine having builtin org support is super convenient, thanks for sharing. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Make your Azure OpenAI apps compliant with RBAC

  We will be performing all of the authentication requests manually, however for testing purposes, you might want to use an API testing tool such as Postman or Insomnia. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Local automation

  For a very long time, the go-to tool was curl. Great, always available command line tool. Unfortunately, there is one small issue. It’s hard to keep requests and collect them in collections, it’s great for one-time shots or debugging, but for constant working with API could be painful. To solve it, I started working with tools like Postman/Insomnia. Then eh... Strange licensing model, or changes which occurred... - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Tools that Make Me Productive as a Software Engineer

  At first, I used Postman for testing APIs because it had a lot of features. But I switched to Insomnia because it was easier to use and kept everything organized. The big problem with Insomnia was that it deleted all my saved work when it made me create an account to keep using it. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Different Levels of Project Documentation

  Often used for cases where a project exposes a REST or other type of API service. Open API is a popular method of documenting such API services. It can also be used along side tools such as Swagger Codegen to produce boilerplate code for API interaction / testing purposes. There may also be support files for popular API testing tools such as Postman or Insomnia. This makes it easier at a glance to see what data is... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago
