# cielago

A vim-style TUI for building and sending HTTP requests, organized into
4
collections you can import straight from an OpenAPI spec.
5
6
## Features
7
8
- **OpenAPI 3.x import** — turn a spec (file or URL) into a collection with
9
  requests, params, example bodies, servers, and docs prefilled.
10
- **Ad-hoc collections** — no spec needed; paste a full URL and it's split into
11
  server, path, and query params for you.
12
- **Vim-style TUI** — three panes (requests / editor / response), `j`/`k`
13
  navigation, `:` command line, `/` incremental search.
14
- **Variables** — `{{name}}` from the collection, plus dynamic ones like
15
  `{{uuid}}`, `{{timestamp}}`, `{{randomInt(1,100)}}`.
16
- **OAuth2 client credentials** — per collection, tokens cached in memory only.
17
- **Server switcher** — swap base URLs so requests stay portable across envs.
18
- **Syntax highlighting** — JSON and XML in both request bodies and responses.
19
- **Plain JSON storage** — collections live in `~/.config/cielago/collections/`.

## Installation
22
23
```sh
24
cargo install --path .
25
```
26
27
Or build without installing:
28
29
```sh
30
cargo build --release
31
./target/release/cielago --help
32
```

34
## Usage
35
36
```sh
37
cielago                          # open the last-used collection in the TUI
38
cielago open [name]              # open a specific collection
39
cielago import <spec|url>        # import an OpenAPI 3.x spec
40
cielago new <name> [--server u]  # create an empty collection and open it
41
cielago list [-l]                # list collections (-l adds counts + paths)
42
cielago info <name>              # servers, counts, auth, groups
43
cielago edit <name>              # edit the collection JSON in $EDITOR
44
cielago rename <name> <new>      # rename a collection and its file
45
cielago delete <name> [-f]       # delete a collection
46
cielago path <name>              # print the collection's JSON path
47
```
48
49
`<name>` matches loosely — `Some API`, `some api`, and `some-api` all resolve to
50
the same collection.
