[PYTHON] Use httpie from windows git bash

Thing you want to do

As the title says, httpie was convenient, so I wondered if it could be used from windows git-bash.

Throw away curl and use httpie-Qiita http://qiita.com/yuku_t/items/5df06d50c4c349cc0c1b

procedure

First, install windows python (2.7 here) normally

Python Releases for Windows | Python.org https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/ Download Windows x86-64 MSI installer

Then pass the Path

pip and ipython installation guide (Windows) --secretbase.log http://cointoss.hatenablog.com/entry/20120531/1338474875

Reboot

Then, from git-bash

[12-14 18:22:36 ~]$ python --version
Python 2.7.13rc1
[12-14 18:22:37 ~]$ pip --version
pip 9.0.1 from c:\python27\lib\site-packages (python 2.7)
[12-14 18:22:41 ~]$ easy_install --version
setuptools 31.0.0 from c:\python27\lib\site-packages (Python 2.7)
[12-14 18:22:46 ~]$

Will be available.

Then install httpie

[12-14 18:17:08 ~]$ winpty pip install httpie

Convenient!

... By the way, what is winpty! ??

What to do if Python doesn't work on Git for Windows-Qiita http://qiita.com/icoxfog417/items/33e6b1f3dd9358923e21

It seems that. Tweak the script or Let's do it quietly with winpty in mind.

http: error: Only terminal output can be colorized on Windows.

If you write the execution result of httpie to text from git-bash,

$ winpty http GET http://127.0.0.1/search/song word==ai count==5 --print hb --pretty format --output result.txt

If you want to do something like

usage: http [--json] [--form] [--pretty {all,colors,format,none}]
            [--style STYLE] [--print WHAT] [--headers] [--body] [--verbose]
            [--all] [--history-print WHAT] [--stream] [--output FILE]
            [--download] [--continue]
            [--session SESSION_NAME_OR_PATH | --session-read-only SESSION_NAME_OR_PATH]
            [--auth USER[:PASS]] [--auth-type {basic,digest}]
            [--proxy PROTOCOL:PROXY_URL] [--follow]
            [--max-redirects MAX_REDIRECTS] [--timeout SECONDS]
            [--check-status] [--verify VERIFY]
            [--ssl {ssl2.3,ssl3,tls1,tls1.1,tls1.2}] [--cert CERT]
            [--cert-key CERT_KEY] [--ignore-stdin] [--help] [--version]
            [--traceback] [--default-scheme DEFAULT_SCHEME] [--debug]
            [METHOD] URL [REQUEST_ITEM [REQUEST_ITEM ...]]
http: error: Only terminal output can be colorized on Windows.

It will be. To solve this problem, use cmd.exe instead of git-bash

C:\Users\XXXX> http GET http://127.0.0.1/search/song word==ai count==5 --print hb --pretty format --output result.txt

Then you can write the output in the formatted state. Note that you don't need winpty.
