httprequester

We have hosted the application httprequester in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about httprequester:

This program is a custom solution to the problem of requiring the use of a HTTP WebApi or similar resource from a language that lacks support for socket communication.

The only requirement of the client language is that it has a standard I/O library and is able to execute system commands.

You pass a JSON request body to this CLI tool and it will print a response JSON object to the standard out with usual HTTP response information, status, body, request time etc.

See the wiki 'Getting Started' guide to see how to pass in parameters and start using HTTP from those awkward development platforms.

Features:

• Make HTTP requests
• Send POST data
• Uses JSON.NET and standard libraries, tested and robust
• Any errors are outputted in JSON model

Audience: Information Technology, Telecommunications Industry, Advanced End Users, System Administrators, Developers, Testers.
User interface: Command-line.
Programming Language: C#.
