httpbin(1): HTTP Request & Response Service
This is a fork of the original httpbin project, which is located at https://github.com/postmanlabs/httpbin
Why fork? we were unable to get ahold of the folks at postmanlabs to maintain the original project, and httpbin is used for other packages within the python ecosystem, such as pytest-httpbin which is in turn used by packages such as requests so we have forked this package. That means that httpbin.org is not actually backed by this repo, but the httpbin package is. Confusing right? Know anyone at postmanlabs? get in touch.
httpbin is a Kenneth Reitz Project.
Downloading and Running
docker pull ghcr.io/psf/httpbin
docker run -p 80:8080 ghcr.io/psf/httpbin
Using httpbin as a Library
httpbin can be used as a dependency in your own projects by simply adding
httpbin as a dependency.
Manually Building the Latest Docker Image
To build the Docker image yourself, download the latest Dockerfile and
requirements.txt files from the release page. Store both file
in the same folder and run:
docker build --build-arg APP_VERSION=<your-version> [other docker args] .
Alternatively, you can re-generate a new requirements.txt file using
pip-compile. In that case, be aware that the code has not been
tested against those dependencies and we cannot guarantee that such an image
will run without errors.
Where APP_VERSION will be stored in a docker-label. The default value is an
empty-string.
Maintenance
"Extra" Dependencies
The project provides two "extras" which contain dependencies that should only
be installed for specific use-cases. They will not be included when using
httpbin as a dependency, unless they are explicitly requested like
httpbin[mainapp].
mainapp: Includes everything needed to runhttpbinas a standalone app. This is used by the docker image.test: Includes additional dependencies for unit-testing. This is only used during development.
Publishing a new Release
Releases (both docker and pypi) are automated via GitHub Actions (See #17).
For pypi releases, the project uses trusted-publishing via the official GitHub action.
For releases on docker-hub (when enabled in the CI), the following two secrets are required:
DOCKERHUB_USERNAMEDOCKERHUB_TOKEN
Releases are triggered on commits tagged with release- (for example
release-0.10.0).
