Installation Guide for httui

Getting httui up and running on your system is straightforward. Follow these steps to clone the repository and build the application using Go.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed on your system:

• Git: For cloning the repository.
• Go: You'll need Go installed to compile the application. Make sure you have Go version 1.13 or higher.

Step-by-Step Installation

1. Clone the Repository

First, clone the httui repository from GitHub to your local machine. Open your terminal and run the following command:

git clone https://github.com/gandarfh/httui.git

This command downloads the latest version of httui and its source code into a directory named httui on your local machine.

2. Build the Application

Navigate into the project directory you just cloned. Run the following command to build the httui executable:

cd httui
go build -o $GOPATH/bin/httui

This command compiles the httui source code and creates an executable named httui in your $GOPATH/bin directory. This location is typically set in your system's environment paths, which allows you to run the httui command from anywhere on your system.

Verify Installation

To ensure httui is installed correctly, try running the following command in your terminal:

httui

If the installation was successful, this command should display the version of httui you just installed.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during the installation, ensure your Go environment is correctly set up and that $GOPATH/bin is in your system's PATH. For more detailed troubleshooting, refer to the official Go documentation or the httui GitHub issues page.

Congratulations! You are now ready to start managing HTTP requests directly from your terminal with httui.
