A tool for easily making HTTP requests (GET/PUT/POST/DELETE), viewing the responses, and keeping a history of transactions.
httprequester is a tool for firefox for easily making http requests (get/put/post/delete), viewing the responses, and keeping a history of transactions.
this tool is useful when doing web or rest development, or when you need to make http requests that are not easily done via the browser (put/post/delete).
this is based off of alex milowski's excellent poster addon, with a large focus on keeping a history of transactions, allowing you to go back and review, reexecute, load, and save http requests.

overview
view responses in an embedded browser, or in plain text (with an option to prettyformat xml/json). a history of transactions is recorded (and kept across sessions). you can view past requests, and reexecute them. selecting a transaction in the history list will show the full request/response. for each transaction in the list, the request and response are shown, as well as the elapsed time and contentlength (the value used is the contentlength response header if available, and the size of the response body otherwise.) each column in the history list is resizable and reorderable and can be hidden via the column picker. the ordering and width of each column are persisted. doubleclicking a row in the history will show you a raw text version of the request and response you can edit raw requests by doubleclicking a row in the history list, or clicking the edit raw request button. this is useful for easily viewing the request all at once, or for making quick tweaks to a previous request, such as adding or changing headers. this is the same behavior as doubleclicking a transaction in the transaction history list. recent urls, header names, and content types are remembered across sessions, and can easily be selected from dropdown lists.
