sqump VS hurl

Well this is fun to see. After Postman deleted my local data after I declined a cloud account, I started working on my own tool: https://github.com/EvWilson/sqump

Some similar ideas - actually treats the file system as authoritative, runs locally, can share collections via source control with teammates. Difference in this case is that I used Lua as a lightweight scripting layer that I gave all my necessary tools to. So now I have a HTTP toolkit, and some for Kafka as well (which I use a good bit). I’ve been able to use it to replace all my API testing and development, as well as perform some more involved migrations and some dashboard-like actions (e.g. can list out resources and then check failures for each of their IDs).

It’s also just a single binary with the web UI and CLI bundled in, which works more for me. Still early days for the little tool, but hoping it could be helpful for someone else.

I tried Hurl after Insomnia went the way of Postman. The highlights you list were the strong drivers for testing it out. Where Hurl fell short was composing requests. Example: X.hurl response has authToken. Y.hurl uses authToken. Z.hurl uses authToken. There's no import ability[1], so you've got to use other tooling to copy X.hurl into Y.hurl and Z.hurl.

Ultimately settled on Bruno. It's backed by readable text files[2] as well. The CLI works for scripting. And the GUI is familiar enough that I've managed to convert Postman holdouts at my dayjob.

I haven't used it myself, but maybe something like Hurl? It's not a GUI like Postman though

No, you got what's you write. If you want, you can see the run curl's command, save it in a script and replay it without Hurl. You can check the source code here [1]

You might check out hurl for a RestAPI tool replacement. There is also a vim plugin for it, although I have not used it. Someone already mentioned dadbod (which I think works great on its own), but if you are curious there is also a plugin to add a UI on top of it.

just write a simple frontend on top of https://github.com/Orange-OpenSource/hurl

We've a more "classic" changelog in GitHub [1], I see the blog post as an editorial view of the changelog: highlights of main features/changes with some context.

I must say that the name is already taken by another tool language https://github.com/Orange-OpenSource/hurl which is a very good idea(similar to httpYac)

That's why we have hurl
