pgrok
HTTP/TCP reverse tunnel solution through SSH remote port forwarding
The pgrok is a multi-tenant HTTP/TCP reverse tunnel solution through remote port forwarding from the SSH protocol. This is intended for small teams that need to expose the local development environment to the public internet, and you need to bring your own domain name and SSO provider. It gives a stable subdomain for every user and gated by your SSO through the OIDC protocol. Think of this as a bare-bones alternative to the ngrok's $65/user/month enterprise tier. Trying to put this behind a production system will blow up your SLA. For individuals and production systems, just buy ngrok, it is still my favorite. -

undici
An HTTP/1.1 client, written from scratch for Node.js
An HTTP/1.1 client, written from scratch for Node.js. This section documents our most commonly used API methods. Additional APIs are documented in their own files within the docs folder and are accessible via the navigation list on the left side of the docs site. Garbage collection in Node is less aggressive and deterministic (due to the lack of clear idle periods that browsers have through the rendering refresh rate) which means that leaving the release of connection resources to the garbage collector can lead to excessive connection usage, reduced performance (due to less connection re-use), and even stalls or deadlocks when running out of connections. -

Faraday
Simple, but flexible HTTP client library, with support for backends
Faraday is an HTTP client library abstraction layer that provides a common interface over many adapters (such as Net::HTTP) and embraces the concept of Rack middleware when processing the request/response cycle. You probably don't want to use Faraday directly in your project, as it will lack an actual client library to perform requests. Instead, you probably want to have a look at Awesome Faraday for a list of available adapters. The best starting point is the Faraday Website, with its introduction and explanation. This library aims to support and is tested against the currently officially supported Ruby implementations. This means that, even without a major release, we could add or drop support for Ruby versions, following their EOL. Currently that means we support Ruby 2.6+. You can also install the faraday_middleware extension gem to access a collection of useful Faraday middleware. -

OpenAPI.NET
Object model for OpenAPI documents in .NET
The OpenAPI.NET SDK contains a useful object model for OpenAPI documents in .NET along with common serializers to extract raw OpenAPI JSON and YAML documents from the model. The OpenAPI.NET project holds the base object model for representing OpenAPI documents as .NET objects. Some developers have found the need to write processors that convert other data formats into this OpenAPI.NET object model. We'd like to curate that list of processors in this section of the readme. Converts standard .NET annotations ( /// comments ) emitted from your build (MSBuild.exe) into OpenAPI.NET document object. Converts the XML representation of the Entity Data Model (EDM) describing an OData Service into OpenAPI.NET document object. -

Feign
Make writing Java http clients easier
Feign is a Java to HTTP client binder that was built primarily to make writing Java http clients easier. Inspired by previous projects Retrofit, JAXRS-2.0 and WebSocket, Feign was designed to reduce the complexity that is often involved in binding the Denominator uniformly to HTTP APIs, no matter the ReSTfulness. Feign works by processing annotations into a templatized request, to which arguments are applied in a straightforward manner before output. While it may only support text-based APIs, it simplifies system aspects dramatically and makes it much easier to unit test your conversions. Feign makes use of great tools like Jersey and CXF for writing Java clients for ReST or SOAP services. It also lets you write your own code on top of http libraries, and connects your code to http APIs with little overhead. -

HTTP
Rust HTTP types
This crate is a general purpose library for common types found when working with the HTTP protocol. You’ll find Request and Response types for working as either a client or a server as well as all of their components. Notably you’ll find Uri for what a Request is requesting, a Method for how it’s being requested, a StatusCode for what sort of response came back, a Version for how this was communicated, and HeaderName/HeaderValue definitions to get grouped in a HeaderMap to work with request/response headers. You will notably not find an implementation of sending requests or spinning up a server in this crate. It’s intended that this crate is the “standard library” for HTTP clients and servers without dictating any particular implementation. Note that this crate is still early on in its lifecycle so the support libraries that integrate with the http crate are a work in progress! Stay tuned and we’ll be sure to highlight crates here in the future. -

HttpClient component
Provides powerful methods to fetch HTTP resources synchronously
Provides powerful methods to fetch HTTP resources synchronously or asynchronously. The HttpClient component is a low-level HTTP client with support for both PHP stream wrappers and cURL. It provides utilities to consume APIs and supports synchronous and asynchronous operations. The HTTP client contains many options you might need to take full control of the way the request is performed, including DNS pre-resolution, SSL parameters, public key pinning, etc. They can be defined globally in the configuration (to apply it to all requests) and to each request (which overrides any global configuration). It's common that some of the HTTP client options depend on the URL of the request (e.g. you must set some headers when making requests to GitHub API but not for other hosts). If that's your case, the component provides scoped clients (using ScopingHttpClient) to autoconfigure the HTTP client based on the requested URL. -
24
Hurl
Hurl, run and test HTTP requests with plain text
Hurl is a command line tool that runs HTTP requests defined in a simple plain text format. It can chain requests, capture values and evaluate queries on headers and body responses. Hurl is very versatile: it can be used for both fetching data and testing HTTP sessions. Hurl makes it easy to work with HTML content, REST / SOAP / GraphQL APIs, or any other XML / JSON-based APIs. Hurl can run HTTP requests but can also be used to test HTTP responses. Different types of queries and predicates are supported, from XPath and JSONPath on body response, to assert on status code and response headers. -

Milkman
An extensible request/response workbench
Milkman is heavily inspired by Postman. But I got sick of all those electron-based applications that need ages and loads of memory to start up. Therefore, this is a JavaFx-based workbench for crafting requests/responses. It is not limited to e.g. HTTP (or more specifically rest) requests. Due to nearly everything being a plugin, other things are possible, like database requests or GRPC, GraphQl, etc. Request-types (e.g. Http Request), request-aspects (e.g. Headers, Body, etc), editors for request aspects (e.g. table-based editors for headers), importers, whatever it is, you can extend it. The core application only handles Workspaces with Environments, Collections, Requests, and their aspects. Several plugins are provided already that extend the core application to be a replacement for postman. Crafting and Executing Http/Rest requests with json highlighting. Support Proxy-server configuration and SSE.
