# Curlie
If you like the interface of [HTTPie](https://httpie.org) but miss the features of [curl](https://curl.haxx.se), curlie is what you are searching for. Curlie is a frontend to `curl` that adds the ease of use of `httpie`, without compromising on features and performance. All `curl` options are exposed with syntax sugar and output formatting inspired from `httpie`.
## Install

```sh
brew install curlie

```sh
# macOS / Linux

```
```pwsh
# Windows
curl.exe -A "MS" https://webinstall.dev/curlie | powershell
```
Using [eget](https://github.com/zyedidia/eget):
```sh
# Ubuntu/Debian
eget rs/curlie -a deb --to=curlie.deb
sudo dpkg -i curlie.deb
```
Using [macports](https://www.macports.org):

## Usage
Synopsis:
$ curlie [CURL_OPTIONS...] [METHOD] URL [ITEM [ITEM]]
Simple GET:
Custom method, headers and JSON data:
When running interactively, `curlie` provides pretty-printed output for json. To force pretty-printed output, pass `--pretty`.
## Build
Build with [goreleaser](https://goreleaser.com) to test that all platforms compile properly.
```sh
goreleaser --snapshot --skip-publish --rm-dist
```
Or with `go build` for your current platform only.
```sh
go build .
```
## Differences with httpie
* Like `curl` but unlike `httpie`, headers are written on `stderr` instead of `stdout`.
* Output is not buffered, all the formatting is done on the fly so you can easily debug streamed data.
* Use the `--curl` option to print executed curl command.
