$ alias http='docker run -ti --rm alpine/httpie'
$ alias https='docker run -ti --rm --entrypoint=https alpine/httpie'
To use and persist a .netrc
file:
$ alias http='docker run -ti --rm -v ~/.netrc:/root/.netrc alpine/httpie'
$ alias https='docker run -ti --rm -v ~/.netrc:/root/.netrc --entrypoint=https alpine/httpie'
A .netrc
file must exist at ~
on the host.
/root/.netrc
is used because httpie is run as root in the container, and it
looks to the user's home directory (/root
) for the .netrc
file.
To use and persist a .httpie
configuration
directory:
$ alias http='docker run -ti --rm -v ~/.httpie:/root/.httpie alpine/httpie'
$ alias https='docker run -ti --rm -v ~/.httpie:/root/.httpie --entrypoint=https alpine/httpie'
The ~/.httpie
directory on the host will be created automatically if it does
not exist already. You will notice a ~/.httpie/config.json
is created by
httpie if one did not exist.
This will create a temporary alias. In order to make it persist reboots,
you can append this exact line to your ~/.bashrc
(or similar) like this:
$ alias http >> ~/.bashrc
$ alias https >> ~/.bashrc
Running HTTPie is as simple as invoking it like this:
From the official examples:
Hello World:
$ https httpie.io/hello
Custom HTTP method, HTTP headers and JSON data:
$ http PUT example.org X-API-Token:123 name=John
Submitting forms:
$ http -f POST example.org hello=World
Upload a file using redirected input:
$ http example.org < file.json
Download a file and save it via redirected output:
$ http example.org/file > file
You can supply any number of HTTPie arguments that will be passed through unmodified.
HTTPie has a fairly extensive documentation available. Also, you can use its included help output:
$ http --help
docker pull alpine/httpie
