Changelog

2.0.0 [18th October 2024]

Added

  • Scripting: Run Python scripts before and after sending requests. Scripts can be used to perform setup, set variables, modify requests, and more.
    • Define "setup", "pre-request" and "post-request" Python functions and attach them to requests.
    • Posting will automatically reload these functions when they change, meaning you can edit them in an external editor while Posting is running.
    • Scripts can be used to directly manipulate the request, set variables which are used in the request (e.g. set a $token variable which is used in the request URL).
    • Output from scripts is captured and displayed in the "Scripts" tab.
  • Keymaps: Change the default keybindings for any of Posting's "global" actions (e.g. sending request, opening jump mode, etc.) by editing keymap section of your config.yaml file.
  • Added heading.hostname config to allow customisation of the hostname in the header. This field supports Rich markup. You may wish to use this to apply highlighting when posting is running on a production system vs a development environment, for example.
  • Added focus.on_request_open config to automatically shift focus when a request is opened via the collection browser. For example, you might prefer to have focus jump to the "Body" tab when a request is opened.
  • More detail and screenshots added to several sections of the guide.
    • Much more detail added to the "Getting Started" section.
    • Collections guide updated to explain more about the collection browser.
    • Guide for Keymaps added.
    • Guide for Scripting added.
    • Guide for External Tools added (integrating with vim, less, fx, etc.)
  • alt+enter can now be used to send a request (in addition to the existing ctrl+j binding).
  • Tooltips added to more actions in the app footer. These appear on mouse hover.

  • Various refinements to autocompletion, upgrading to textual-autocomplete 3.0.0a12.

Fixed

1.13.0 [8th September 2024]
