Missing features compared to httpbin.org

Open na-- opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

The following httpbin.org features (besides /brotli) are not present in the library:

  • now.httpbin.org The current time, in a variety of formats. (this probably will be more useful as a /now url...)
  • /uuid Returns UUID4.
  • /anything Returns request data, including method used.
  • /anything/:anything Returns request data, including the URL.
  • /base64/:value Decodes base64url-encoded string.

None of them are a big deal, just posting this for completion. If I have the time, I may implement some of them, though I doubt that will be very soon.

Ah yeah I see a whole truckload of cool features in official website version. Would be great to see this back ported. @mccutchen maybe a hack week project for me 🙂

@Integralist go for it! A pile of new endpoints have been added recently by @saurabh-hirani:

  • /bearer added in #21
  • /json added in #20
  • /base64 added in #18
  • /uuid added in #16

@Integralist - go-httpbin handler and testing code is very well thought out - thanks to @mccutchen As per https://github.com/postmanlabs/httpbin/blob/master/httpbin/core.py - we are almost feature complete - save for the /anything endpoint. I was going to work on it over the coming weekend. If you are interested in picking it up, bump this comment up.

I ♥️ the /anything endpoint. I'm on leave for a few weeks but when I'm back it will be just in time for hack week 😀

I'm going to call this one done, for now. Everything but time.httpbin.org has been implemented, and we can use #91 to track any other incompatibilities/missing features/etc.

Turns out I missed a relatively big one that is now being addressed: https://github.com/mccutchen/go-httpbin/pull/123
