HTTP debugging tool (Emacs mode)
http-twiddle
This Emacs addon is useful for interactive testing and debugging hand-written HTTP requests:
- Activate
http-twiddle-modewithM-x. - Write your request.
C-c C-c(re)sends the request.
(C-u C-c C-c to change the destination or port.)
The request can either be written from scratch or you can paste it from a snoop/tcpdump and then twiddle from there.
The mode will also activate automatically when opening a filename ending with .http-twiddle.
Examples
Try M-x http-twiddle-mode-demo in Emacs for a simple get-started example.
If the Content-Length header is not written out (like in the examples below) it'll be added automatically on send.

GET /user/bob/ HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
[blank line here]
POST:
POST /user/create/ HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
Content-Type: text/xml
Connection: close
<user><name>Bob</name><email>[email protected]</email></user>
