The main feature of this release is the ability to import collections from Postman.

Simply export your collection from the Postman UI, then run:

posting import --type postman path/to/collection.json

Here's Posting in action, browsing collections and sending off requests - all of which have been imported from Postman.

Changelog

Posting's full changelog is always available at https://posting.sh/CHANGELOG/.

Added

• Collections can now be imported from Postman (#106)
• posting.env files in the current directory will automatically be loaded if no --env options are provided (#249)
• Generate JSON body with default values after importing OpenAPI specs (#247)
• Use tags to separate sub-collections in OpenAPI specs (#247)
• curl import now handles various different data options (#252)
• Added -c shorthand alias for --collection option (#250)
• Added posting sponsors command, which lists people who have supported Posting via GitHub Sponsors (specific sponsor tiers only). (#253)

Changed

• A double-click rather than a single-click is now required to enter edit mode inside data tables (e.g. headers, query params, etc.) (#256)
• In the body editor, the Form data menu item now shows (x-www-form-urlencoded) after the label, to suggest the type of data being sent. (#259)

• Fix script path with custom function (#254)
• Fixed Posting's default User-Agent header not being used (#259)

2.6.0 - Editing rows, compact mode, header value autocomplete, and more!

This is a pretty huge release. It introduces a bunch of features the community requested, and a bunch they didn't!

Edit rows without deleting them 🤯

Finally! You can now edit headers, query params, and form data without need to delete and re-add them.

Press enter on a row to edit the key/name, or press v to edit the value.

What's going on with the UI in that video? Oh, that's...

Compact mode 🐜

Set spacing: compact in your config file to remove Posting's padding and borders, letting you fit more on screen.

Here's a clip showing how compact mode looks on some different themes, and how it can be toggled via the command palette at runtime.

compact-mode-and-themes.mp4

Header value completion 🫨

Automatically complete header values based on the name. (The video below is a little out of date and has a bug where the completion dropdown remains open - that's been fixed but I'm too tired to record another video now!)

autocomplete-header-values-c.mp4

Other stuff

There are a number of quality of life improvements and small design tweaks. The https://posting.sh homepage was updated with a new video and footer. A contributing guide is also now in the repo. We now use Textual 3.0 - the latest version.

Here's the full changelog for this release:

Added

• Added spacing: <compact|standard> config to allow for a more compact UI (default: standard).
• Added ability to edit headers, form data, and query params without deleting and recreating them.
  • Press enter or click a row to enter edit mode. The row will be highlighted, and focus will move to the key/name input.
    Submitted changes will overwrite the existing row rather than adding a new one.
  • Press v to enter edit mode and immediately focus on the value input.
  • Press escape to cancel the edit.
  • Press enter to save the changes and exit edit mode.
  • The background colour behind the input will update to indicate edit mode is active.
• Added autocompletion for header values based on the header name.
  • For example, if the header is Content-Type, when typing the value, you'll be able to quickly autocomplete from a list of common content types.
• Press / to open the request search palette while the collection browser is focused.
  • ctrl+shift+p remains available as a global shortcut for this.
• Added help: Open web docs command to the command palette.
• Basic Vim motions to script output log (hjkl).
• Added response status code label to the URL bar.
• Contributing guide added to the GitHub repo (CONTRIBUTING.md).

Changed

• Rewrite of the autocompletion system used to autocomplete header names, values, URLs, and variables.
• Automatically prepend http:// protocol if no protocol is specified in the URL bar.
• Debounce jump overlay recomposition - if you resize while the jump overlay is open, it'll wait a short period before recomputing.
• Jump mode now lives on the main screen, rather than globally. This makes more sense as it's only available on the main screen. The only user-facing impact should be that the position of the keybinding in the footer and keybindings panel may change.
• Jump mode interaction with Tabs now uses the Tabs API, rather than simulating a Click.
• Status code label now displayed in the URL bar beside the trace markers.
• Request description area at the bottom of the collection browser has new design.
• When there are no response cookies, the cookies section will now display a message to the user.
• Updated to Textual 3.0.0.
• Various updates to the https://posting.sh homepage.

Fixed

• Fixed scrolling in response headers and cookies tabs using keyboard.
• Fixed crash when immediately pressing enter after loading the UI when the on_startup config is set to url (this was due to lazy loading of the UI, and attempting to send a request before the UI was fully loaded).
• Fixed accepting a completion via enter in the header editor also adding the header.
  • Now, the first enter press will accept the completion, and the second enter press will add the header.
• Fixed Textual markup not being escaped key value tables.
• Fixed request description attempting to parse Textual markup (#243)

This release reduces the startup time of Posting by around 40%.

I wrote a bit about it here: https://darren.codes/posts/python-startup-time/
