I've bounced around from Postman, to Paw, to Insomnia, and back again for years. I finally dumped a bunch of HTTPie scripts in a folder, made a small runner script in my path, and added autocomplete hooks that just read the filesystem structure.

Now I can run anything from any terminal with history searching. Plus, it's all committed to a repo for anyone else in my org to look at and/or contribute too. I know other tools have collaboration, but can you beat text files + git that you can link to from Slack?

Need to pull an ID out of the third item? Just pipe it to gron and grep. Watch for changes? Put "watch" in front of it. Need to chain three things together? Write a short glue script. It's wonderful.

That sounds really nice. Any chance you could share the runner script and other glue you use?

Right now I'm mostly using restclient.el[1] which I like, but it's not quite as universally sharable as it could be.

There is also Verb mode (org-mode extension) which seems like a nice alternative to restclient.el. Learnt about via Impostman[2] which imports Postman collections to both restclient.el and verb.el
