@ -29,104 +29,58 @@ A collection can be super simple
url = "https://api.alemi.dev/debug"
```
But more complex options are available
But more complex options are available, check out provided `postwoman.toml` for some (ready to run!) examples.
More complex collection trees can be achieved with `include` top level field.
Includes are idempotent and always resolved relative from parent collection's directory.
```toml
[client] # HTTP client configuration
user_agent = "postwoman@sample/0.3.1"
timeout = 60 # max time for each request to complete, in seconds
redirects = 5 # allow up to five redirects, defaults to none
[env] # these will be replaced in routes options. environment vars overrule these
PW_TOKEN = "set-me-as-and-environment-variable!"
[route.healthcheck] # the simplest possible route: just name and url
url = "https://api.alemi.dev/"
[route.debug]
url = "https://api.alemi.dev/debug"
method = "PUT" # specify request method
query = [ # specify query parameters in a more friendly way

include = [
"other.toml",
"even/more.toml"
]
headers = [ # add custom headers to request
"Content-Type: application/json",
"Authorization: Bearer ${PW_TOKEN}",
]
body = { hello = "world!", success = true } # body can be a bare string, or an inline table (will be converted to json)
extract = ".path" # extract from json responses with JQ syntax
# note that a bare extractor string is equivalent to `{ type = "jq", query = ".path" }`
[route.benchmark]
url = "https://api.alemi.dev/look/into/the/void"
extract = { type = "discard" } # if you don't care about the output, discard it!
[route.notfound]
url = "https://api.alemi.dev/not-found"
expect = 404 # it's possible to specify expected status code, will fail if doesn't match
extract = { type = "regex", pattern = 'nginx/[0-9\.]+' } # extract from response with regex
[route.payload]
url = "https://api.alemi.dev/debug"
method = "POST"
body = '''{
"complex": {
"json": "payloads",
"can": "be",
"expressed": "this",
"way": true
}
}'''
extract = { type = "body" } # get the whole response body, this is the default extractor
[route.cookie]
url = "https://api.alemi.dev/getcookie"
method = "GET"
extract = { type = "header", key = "Set-Cookie" } # get a specific response header, ignoring body
