bun install -d @stacksjs/httx

Making requests is simple. There are two ways of getting started:as a library or as a CLI.

Given the npm package is installed:

importtype{HttxConfig}from'httx'// import { ... } from 'httx'// ...

In case you are trying to start multiple proxies, you may use this configuration:

httx get api.example.com/usershttx post api.example.com/users name=john email=john@example.com -jhttx get api.example.com/files file@./data.txt -mhttx get api.example.com/secure -a username:passwordhttx --helphttx --version

The Reverse Proxy can be configured using ahttx.config.ts(orhttx.config.js) file and it will be automatically loaded when running thereverse-proxy command.

// httx.config.{ts,js}importtype{HttxOptions}from'@stacksjs/httx'importosfrom'node:os'importpathfrom'node:path'constconfig:HttxOptions={verbose:false,}exportdefaultconfig

Then run:

./httx
