Show HN: HTTP API Test Iframe – Embed Live API Testing in Your Documentation
github.comI'm excited to share HTTP API Test Iframe, an open-source tool designed to empower API documentation. Instead of just testing APIs as a developer, this lightweight component enables you to embed a live testing interface directly into your API docs.
Key Highlights:
- Live API Testing: Allow users to interact with your API from within the documentation. - Customizable Interface: Configure endpoints, methods, headers, and payloads using simple URL parameters. - Responsive Design: The iframe automatically adjusts its height based on content, ensuring a seamless experience. - Easy Integration: Simply drop the provided code snippet into your HTML, and you’re ready to offer interactive documentation.
This project aims to bridge the gap between static documentation and hands-on experimentation, helping API consumers understand and explore your API effortlessly. Check it out on GitHub and let me know your thoughts!
Happy testing!
neat - starring because I think I might want something like this in the future (:
Nice to see it could be useful for others!
