Invalid URL when using postman environment

[anujism]

This is the error I am getting: Tried to parse an invalid URL: http://{{server_url}}/api/test/

Hey, this has something to do with this Go package that is used in the code. It seems to consider that http://{{server_url}} is not a valid host.

One thing you could do until I figure out a way to tackle this elegantly, is to use the -collection flag to change the {{server_url}} variable part of the URL by an actual value.

For that you need to provide a Postman environment export which contain the parameter server_url. You can export your Postman environment by clicking the "Manage environments" button in the Postman UI.

The content of the exported file should look like:

{
  "id": "316cfffe-80bc-ff35-4a30-46d6085d1973",
  "name": "Your environment",
  "values": [
    {
      "key": "server_url",
      "value": "my-awesome-server",
      "type": "text",
      "enabled": true
    }
  ],
  "timestamp": 1481360759312,
  "_postman_variable_scope": "environment",
  "_postman_exported_at": "2016-12-10T09:06:24.792Z",
  "_postman_exported_using": "Postman/4.9.0"
}

Make sure you use the latest build of Postmanerator, here is how you can use it:

postmanerator -environment /path/to/your/env.json -collection /path/to/your/collection.json -output index.html
