freud 0.1.2

Freud is a TUI API endpoint analyzer utilizing Python Prompt Toolkit and Requests. It allows creating and saving request headers, authentication (basic and digest), and body using both integrated forms and your native editor.

Currently, it is designed and tested for receiving JSON, XML, and HTML responses, but more can be added later as needed.

Installation

First, create an environment (recommended):

python -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate

Then you can either install through PyPI...

pip install freud

or from sources

git clone https://github.com/stloma/freud
python setup.py install

Roadmap

Freud is still in development, but should work well for most use cases.

Currently, it is designed to handle JSON, XML, and HTML responses; I haven't tested others. If you would like it to handle something specific, you can either submit a PR or create an issue and I'll add it!

Goals

• Add more authentication types (e.g., OAuth, Bearer Token, etc.)
• Handle more Content-Types (MIME types)
• Cookie handling
• Add capability to organize requests under categories
• Increase testing coverage

Requirements

• Python: 3.5+
• Python Prompt Toolkit, Requests, Pygments
• set $EDITOR environment variable
  • bash/zsh: export EDITOR=$(which vim)

Testing

python install -e '.[dev]'
pytest
