CocoaRestClient is a Mac OS X app for testing HTTP/Restful endpoints. I love curl, but sometimes I need my output XML or JSON pretty printed. I want to be able to save frequent PUT and POST bodies for later and copy and paste from responses easily. Think of this as curl with a light UI. The goal of this project is to build a lightweight native Cocoa app for testing and debugging HTTP Restful services. This project was greatly inspired by the Java rest-client (http://code.google.com/p/rest-client/). Features- Make GET, PUT, POST, DELETE, HEAD calls
- Set request body to arbitrary content
- Set request headers
- Set HTTP basic & digest auth
- Auto-format (pretty print) XML and JSON responses
- Display response headers
- Quick save requests in a handy drawer
- Send multipart/form-data new in 1.1
- Upload files via multipart/form-data new in 1.1
- Enter POST/PUT input as raw input or key/value pairs new in 1.1
- Reports response latency new in 1.2
- Command-R reloads last request new in 1.2
- Lightweight: Real memory usage hovers around 25MB
- Automatic updates new in 1.2.2
- SSL Support
- Optionally follows HTTP redirects
- Go full screen in Lion new in 1.2.4
- Import and export requests new in 1.3

Source and Contributions- Source code is now hosted on Github: http://github.com/mmattozzi/cocoa-rest-client
- If you would like to contribute, please fork and create a pull request on Github
- Downloads and issues will still be kept up to date on Google Code. I will probably keep source up to date with each release.
- I don't plan on switching from Garbage Collection to ARC until I drop 10.6 support, as there seems to be some limitations with ARC on 10.6
- I am not turning on AutoLayout constraints in my xib files until I drop 10.6 support.
