Extremelly small rust binary to generate http requests using json/yaml.

![License](https://img.shields.io/github/license/Brian3647/qli)

![GitHub issues](https://img.shields.io/github/issues/Brian3647/qli)

![Build status](https://img.shields.io/github/actions/workflow/status/Brian3647/qli/rust.yml)

## Installation

_Requires [cargo (rustlang)](https://www.rust-lang.org/)_

For the CLI, run `cargo install qli` and use it with the `qli` command.

For the library, just run `cargo add qli`

## Usage (library)

`qli` exports 2 functions, `from_yaml` and `from_json`, which generate and send a web request and return an anyhow result with the response. It also exports the `RequestConfig` struct, but it isn't realy useful outside the library.

## Usage (CLI)

### Command usage:

```

qli

USAGE:

    qli [FLAGS] [OPTIONS] 

FLAGS:

    -h, --help       Prints help information

    -V, --version    Prints version information

    -v, --verbose

OPTIONS:

    -o, --output 

ARGS:

    

```

### example yaml/json file structure:

```yaml

# test.yaml

url: http://localhost:3000

method: get

headers:

    X-header1: my-header

body: |

    { "abc": "dce" }

```

```jsonc

// test.json

{

    "url": "https://localhost:3000",

    "method": "get",

    "headers": {

        "my-header": "1234"

    },

    "body": "my body"

}

```

_note that for simplicty reasons `body` needs to be a string, so we recommend using yaml if you want to have an easier time writing json bodies._
