README
hey (n.) – A friendly command-line tool for making HTTP requests.
### Installation
You can install __Hey__ using [npm](https://npmjs.org):
```
npm install -g @dfurnes/hey
```
### Customization
You can set aliases and default request options by creating a `.hey.js` file in your home directory. For example:
```js
module.exports = function(hey) {
return {
sites: {
   'www.example.com': {
   // ↓ You can add aliases for favorite sites, so you can just
// type `hey get example/page` to load "www.example.com/page`!
alias: 'example',
// ↓ If a site should always use HTTPS, set the `forceSecure` flag!
forceSecure: true,
// ↓ You can set default headers to be used on all requests:
headers: {
'X-Secret-API-Key': '5RROHSzXQwJ9douud9u5Ln4BR'
},
},
'www.example.org': {
alias: 'auth-example',
forceSecure: true,
// ↓ Automatically load password from the system keychain and set HTTP Basic Auth
// header by using `hey.basicauth('')`. Will prompt on first request.
auth: hey.basicauth('username@example.com'),
},
},
};
};
```
