* Description
This layer provides a REPL-like interface for http requests.
** Features:
- REPL for http requests via [[https://github.com/pashky/restclient.el][restclient]]
- Alternative =org= integration via [[http://github.com/zweifisch/ob-http][ob-http]]
* Install
To use this configuration layer, add it to your =~/.spacemacs=. You will need to
add =restclient= to the existing =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers= list in this
file.
* Configuration
By default the layer uses [[https://github.com/pashky/restclient.el][restclient]]. To use =org= via [[http://github.com/zweifisch/ob-http][ob-http]] by default set
the layer variable =restclient-use-org= to =t=.
Note that both =restclient= and =ob-http= are always installed so you can
choose the mode at any time.
* Restclient
Any file with an =.http= extension is opened in a =restclient= buffer.
Full documentation and examples can be found in the package's [[https://github.com/pashky/restclient.el][GitHub Page]].
Also there is an [[http://emacsrocks.com/e15.html][Emacs Rocks!]] episode of it.
There is support for =org-babel= and =restclient= code blocks, for instance:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
#+BEGIN_SRC restclient
GET http://example.com
#+END_SRC
#+END_EXAMPLE
