# CuteRest
CuteRest is a REST client tool dedicated for JSON... and also for XML.
Website avaible at http://dridk.github.io/cuterest/
## What is CuteRest
CuteRest is an open source tool dedicated to communicate with a REST server. It's particulary useful to manage
JSON request during developement phase. Actually, there are several tools for this purpose. You can use plugins for
your browser, like [Postman](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/postman-rest-client/fdmmgilgnpjigdojojpjoooidkmcomcm) or use [httpie](https://github.com/jakubroztocil/httpie) as command-line from your console. But those applications do not provide
a tree view of the JSON or XML response. You only have raw data, and you must use another software, like
[jsonviewer](http://jsonviewer.stack.hu/) to view your content as a tree.
CuteRest does have both. It's a REST client which have different view to parse the response.
### Features
* HTTP verbs supported: `GET`, `POST`, `PUT`, `DELETE`, `HEAD`, `PATCH`, `OPTION`

## MacOS X
Mac OS binaries can be downloaded from here:
[CuteRest-beta-0.1.dmg](https://github.com/dridk/cuterest/releases/download/v0.1-beta/CuteRest-beta-0.1.dmg)
## Linux
CuteRest works well on Linux. There aren't packages avaible for any distribution yet. I will publish a Debian package
as soon as possible. For now, you'll need to compile it as described below.
## From source
Compiling on Windows, OSX, Linux, and FreeBSD is really easy. But CuteRest needs at least Qt5.4. Older version will generate complaints during the compilation.
* Download the community Qt 5.4 SDK from [qt.io](http://www.qt.io/download/).
* Download the source code from `master` branch.
* From Qt Creator, File > Open project, then select `cuterest.pro`.
* Compile and run it by clicking on the green button.
If you want to install it on your system, compile and install it from the command line by using `qmake` in your Qt installation path.
qmake cuterest.pro
make
sudo make install
