HTTP Prompt

HTTP Prompt is a command‑line tool that lets developers construct and send HTTP requests interactively. It builds on the HTTPie library for request handling and uses prompt_toolkit to provide a responsive interface with features such as autocomplete of commands, URLs, headers, and options, as well as syntax highlighting that distinguishes different parts of a request. The client supports typical HTTP methods, allows easy editing of request components, and displays responses in a readable format directly in the terminal.

The tool is aimed at developers and system administrators who need a quick, script‑friendly way to test APIs or debug network interactions without leaving the shell. Its interactive nature speeds up repetitive tasks, while the autocomplete and highlighting reduce syntax errors and improve readability of complex requests.

HTTP Prompt is distributed as a stable, CLI‑only package available on PyPI, with documentation, source code, and community chat links provided. It integrates the established HTTPie request engine with prompt_toolkit’s UI capabilities to deliver a lightweight yet feature‑rich HTTP client for terminal workflows.
