Slumber is a TUI (terminal user interface) HTTP client. Define, execute, and share configurable HTTP requests. Slumber is built on some basic principles:

• It will remain free to use forever
• You own your data: all configuration and data is stored locally and can be checked into version control
• It will never be enshittified

Features

• Usable as a TUI or CLI
• Source-first configuration, for easy persistence and sharing
• Import from external formats (e.g. Insomnia)
• Build requests dynamically from other requests, files, and shell commands
• Browse response data using JSONPath selectors
• Switch between different environments easily using profiles
• And more!

Examples

Slumber is based around collections. A collection is a group of request recipes, which are templates for the requests you want to run. A simple collection could be:

# slumber.yml
requests:
  get:
    method: GET
    url: https://shoal.lucaspickering.me/fish

  post:
    method: POST
    url: https://shoal.lucaspickering.me/fish
    body:
      type: json
      data:
        { "name": "Barry", "species": "Barracuda", "age": 3, "weight_kg": 6.2 }

Create this file, then run the TUI with slumber.

For a more extensive example, see the docs.
