Hurl: Comfortable Curl
Hello! 
In 2009, "Rails Rumble" Lech CULVER and Chris Vanstrom was created a wonderful tool — Hurl.
Hurl is RoR application designed to send HTTP requests. Overall, the functionality is similar to the Hurl Curl. The idea and the methods are the same, but the purpose is quite another.
Unfortunately, the hosting, which is the official Hurl very unstable and slow and not suitable for corporate use. Opensource technologies give us the opportunity to raise their instance Hurl, and even make it better.
So we lifted and improved Hurl on your hosting — hurl.quickblox.com. The application is configured on the EC2 instance, and data is stored on S3.
What we have improved the source code Hurl? first, your fork sc-raptor corrected bug with authorization on GitHub, which nivkakuyu not want to work in the source code. Second, korjik added to Hurl the ability to shorten links Hurl bit.ly on our custom domain qblx.co.
Now I'll detail the possibility of a Hurl. The main important parts of this apps are:

Going to your "account" you will find a list made by you hurlow:
You can also remove what is not needed.
How and where are stored hurly? In ruby application, there is a folder db. It in binarnom a lie "hurly", "view function" and users:
the
Space does not very much. For more than six months of active use Hurl, our team made a total of 152 MB requests:
the
why bother? We are working on a project which actively uses the API. Testing and writing documentation becomes much easier if you use Hurl. Also, illustrative examples for users not only in Curl requests and responses, and a place where you do gain can touch API.
In General, Hurl is an easy and convenient tool for creating and storing the HTTP requests. Ustanavlivaetsya as a simple Rails app. Takes up little space and system resources. Recommend!
