This layer lets you have a REPL-like interface for http requests using a
restclient buffer or an org buffer.
To use this configuration layer, add it to your ~/.spacemacs. You will need to
add restclient to the existing dotspacemacs-configuration-layers list in this
file.
By default the layer uses restclient. To use org via ob-http by default set
the layer variable restclient-use-org to t.
Note that both restclient and ob-http are always installed so you can
choose the mode at any time.
Any file with an .http extension is opened in a restclient buffer.
Full documentation and examples can be found in the package’s GitHub Page.
Also there is an Emacs Rocks! episode of it.
There is support for org-babel and restclient code blocks, for instance:
GET http://example.com
| Key Binding | Description |
|---|---|
SPC m n | Jump to next request |
SPC m p | Jump to previous request |
SPC m s | Send and stay in window (pretty-print response if possible) |
SPC m S | Send and switch window (pretty-print response if possible) |
SPC m r | Send and stay in window (do not attempt to pretty-print) |
SPC m R | Send and switch window (do not attempt to pretty-print) |
SPC m y | Copy query under the cursor as a curl command |
Any file with an .http extension is opened in an org buffer with org babel
configured to use ob-http.
