·

4 min read

Reqable is a cross-platform HTTP debugging and development tool developed based on Flutter and C++ languages, supporting HTTP1, HTTP2, and HTTP3(QUIC) protocols. It is a one-stop domestic solution integrating API development and debugging functions, improving API production efficiency!

Function:

Reqable has two basic functions: packet capture debugging and interface testing. The former is used for debugging HTTP interfaces, while the latter is used for the development of HTTP interfaces. Both complement each other. At the same time, Reqable also provides some commonly used technical auxiliary tools to complete related work of interface production in a one-stop manner as much as possible.

1. Packet Capture Debugging

Analyze and debug HTTP traffic for local and LAN devices through a Web man-in-the-middle proxy.

Analyze and debug HTTP traffic for local and LAN devices through a Web man-in-the-middle proxy.

  • Supports HTTP/1.x and HTTP2 protocol versions, with HTTP3 (QUIC) not currently - supported.

  • Supports HTTP/HTTPS/Socks4/Socks4a/Socks5 proxy methods.

  • Supports HTTPS, TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2, and TLSv1.3 encryption protocols.

  • Supports IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

  • Supports Websocket traffic analysis.

  • Search and filter: Offers a quick filter bar and advanced multi-condition search.

  • Gateway function: Block or suspend specified requests or responses.

  • Rewriting function: Preset rules to redirect, replace, or modify specified requests or responses.

  • Breakpoint function: Real-time breakpoint operations on requests or responses, - - such as blocking, suspending, or modifying data.

  • Scripting function: Supports writing Python scripts to handle real-time requests or responses.

  • Mirroring function: Configure mirror mapping for specified domains.

  • Interface linkage: Supports creating and saving API interfaces from the debug list.

  • More features: History records, resending, highlighting, HAR import and export, etc.

2. Interface Testing

  • Interface Testing Similar to Postman, it allows for editing and sending HTTP requests to test interface requests.

  • Supports multiple protocol versions, including HTTP/1.1, HTTP2, and HTTP3 (QUIC).

  • Supports various data types such as JSON, Text, Urlencode, Multiparts, and Binary.

  • Supports various views such as JSON, XML, images, HEX, and Multiparts, making data browsing more convenient.

  • URL syntax highlighting and multi-line display are very friendly for extremely long URLs.

  • Header editing features auto-completion and excellent batch editing capabilities.

  • Cookie management automatically saves cookies and adds associated cookies to the request headers.

  • cURL import and export for quickly sharing REST requests among colleagues.

  • Request authorization settings support API KEY, Basic Auth, and Bearer Token.

  • Web proxy settings support custom proxy configurations, system proxy, and debugging proxy.

  • Debugging linkage: all related configurations for debugging can be used for interface testing.

  • More features include history records, collections, etc.

Features

1. Advanced Technology

The philosophy of Reqable is "advanced HTTP productivity tools" Compared to well-known competitors like Postman and Charles, Reqable places more emphasis on being cutting-edge. This includes support for new application development frameworks (Flutter), new HTTP protocol support (HTTP3/QUIC), broader cross-platform compatibility, a richer graphical user interface (GUI) presentation, and more efficient performance.

2. Concise Design

Reqable is designed based on the Material Design style, always adhering to the original intention of simplicity. We firmly believe that simplicity is efficiency, eliminating complex element stacks, cumbersome interaction steps, annoying ads, and pop-ups. No need to log in, install and use immediately!

3. Rich Themes

Reqable supports a variety of themes, such as two appearance modes for light and dark colors, eleven rich accent colors, Atom One code color schemes, etc.

4.Common Utilities

Reqable integrates common development utilities, such as Base64 encoding and decoding, URL encoding and decoding, MD5 value calculation, JSON/XML formatting, QR code generation, etc., to complete development and testing in one stop as much as possible.

Pricing

Reqable offers a completely free community edition, where almost all features are openly accessible without any charges, but with certain usage limitations such as the number of API collections, the number of API tabs, the number of rules, etc.

Reqable's paid version is divided into two types: Professional and Enterprise. The Professional version is suitable for individual teams or independent developers; the Enterprise version is suitable for purchase by large-scale teams or multiple users.
