Mockbin Example

Make POST calls to http://mockbin.org from a local csv file.

First setup a new bin, using httpie, curl or the web ui and get a bin id.

❯ http POST mockbin.com/bin/create status:=201 statusText=Created httpVersion=HTTP/1.1 headers:='[]' cookies:='[]' 'content[mimeType]'=application/json --body
"9e95289e-d048-4515-9a61-07f2c74810f5"

Create your my_file.csv and pass it to csv2http. Use the returned bin id from before.

❯ csv2http my_file.csv mockbin.org/bin/9e95289e-d048-4515-9a61-07f2c74810f5 --concurrency 3
 POST http://mockbin.org/bin/mockbin.org/bin/9e95289e-d048-4515-9a61-07f2c74810f5
  status codes - {200: 3}
  status codes - {200: 3}
  status codes - {200: 3}
  status codes - {200: 1}
