line2httppost
Simple tool to read lines from stdin and post each line as separate POST request to a specified URL (TCP connection is reused though).
Good together with postsse.
Features
- Connects to http and https, both http1 and http2.
- Logging of errors during connection or failed response statuses.
Limitations
- No advanced options like line delimiter
- It waits for reposnse from server before sending the next line, so RTT affects thoughput.
- Each line is fully buffered prior to starting the request, no streaming/chunking.
Installation
Download pre-built executables from Github releases, install it from source code with cargo install --path . or from crates.io with cargo install line2httppost.
