helena 0.9.1

helena - a fast API client you can keep in git

--native

A desktop app built with Fyne, about 35 MB, that starts right away. No Electron.

collections.yaml

Collections, folders and requests are plain YAML you can review and version. Secrets stay out of them.

--auth

Nine schemes: Basic, Bearer, API Key, OAuth 2.0 with PKCE, OAuth 1.0a, WSSE, AWS SigV4, Digest and NTLM, set per request or inherited from a folder or collection.

--stream

Server-Sent Events and two-way WebSocket sessions, built on the standard library.

{{var}}

A layered variable scope across URL, query, headers and body, with a live preview of the resolved URL.

--script

Pre- and post-request JavaScript with a helena.* API, test() and expect(), and a no-code Assertions tab.

helena run

Chain requests and pass results forward, and run whole collections in CI from the command line.

--import / --export

Imports OpenAPI (up to 3.2), Swagger, WSDL and Postman. Exports to cURL, wget, fetch, Python and Go.

--viewer

A virtualized JSON viewer for big responses: collapsible nodes, highlighting, find-in-response and soft wrap.

go test

The runtime is plain, testable Go, covered by go test and checked with govulncheck.
