iron_curl is an asynchronous Rust cli tool designed to simplify HTTP request handling by providing a versatile interface for making requests, processing responses, and handling HTTP methods.

Features

• Support for multiple HTTP methods, including GET, POST, PATCH, PUT, and DELETE.
• Customizable request headers and body content.
• Asynchronous execution for improved performance with tokio.
• User-friendly command-line interface leveraging clap.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

You should have the Rust toolchain installed, including cargo, Rust's package manager and build tool. This project requires Rust 2018 edition or newer.

Installation

To use iron_curl, clone the repository and build the project:

git clone https://github.com/renatodinizc/iron_curl.git
cd iron_curl
cargo build --release

The executable will be located in ./target/release/.

Usage

iron_curl replicates GNU curl's functionality in a Rust environment. Use it from the command line to make HTTP requests:

./target/release/iron_curl https://example.com

Supports various command-line options to customize your requests:

• --request or -X: Specifies the HTTP method to use.
• --header or -H: Adds a header to the request.
• --data or -d: Sends data in a POST request.

For a full list of options, run:

./target/release/iron_curl --help

Examples

Perform a GET request:

./target/release/iron_curl https://httpbin.org/get

Send a POST request with headers and body data:

./target/release/iron_curl -X POST https://httpbin.org/post -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"key":"value"}'
