Looking at this now. Thanks!

How about a dist folder with a plain js file (or a js file and a css file) that you can load directly?

I am sick unto death of Node and all its associates.

Not as extensive as the previous poster. I wrote a small custom component wrapper a while back: https://github.com/flawiddsouza/code-mirror-custom-element.

The main limitation of web components for me is that all data needs to be passed to the component attributes as strings. Wish we could pass objects and arrays without JSON.stringify-ing them.

Overall search quality has been declining on all search engines. Maybe there's too much spam. Saw an entertaining video about it yesterday that echoes how I feel when I google stuff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrFv1O4dbqY. It's so hard to find content written by humans these days. Seems like only the top sites are being indexed.

Can somebody remind me of the name of the web based oss postman-like tool that was posted to HN recently? I've been looking for it but I can't find it
kermire · 2 years ago
There's https://restfox.dev which I built.

To stay unbiased, here's a list of other web based postman alternatives:

- https://hoppscotch.io (this is the most popular one)

- https://httpie.io/app

Anyone knows of web based HTTP client? Compatible with Postman Insomnia?
kermire · 3 years ago
You can try https://github.com/flawiddsouza/Restfox. It's a web based HTTP client based on Postman and Insomnia.

Disclaimer: I'm the maintainer for it.

And the Cookie header isn't sent? (using it on Firefox 106.1).
kermire · 3 years ago
I'm using the fetch API for making requests and fetch sadly forbids the Cookie header from getting passed. Will be looking into how I can bypass this.

Nice work! I wasn't familiar with insomnia so when I read your first line there I read it as "I love not being able to sleep because it gave me time to code this project..."
kermire · 3 years ago
Haha thanks. Didn't think it could be interpreted like that :D

Any chance of the ability to do web sockets? Postman has started supporting this recently (in beta) but I really don't want to use Postman.

Any other suggestions for web socket testing clients also welcome.

kermire · 3 years ago
I definitely intend to add web socket support eventually. Meanwhile, there's https://socketfox.dev which I made for my friends. You can use it to test web sockets.

I like it but please dont make me right click to do something! please add a little plus or something like it.

Otherwise great work! needs a little disclaimer though that you will not save any of my requests =)

kermire · 3 years ago
Thank you. Will look into preventing the right click requirement and provide an alternative for that.

It should be saving your requests automatically. Maybe your browser is blocking IndexedDB somehow? That's what's used by the application to store the data locally. Also do make sure you're not in incognito mode, as changes will be lost once you're out of it.
