Importing and exporting HTTP collections to and from Postman, OpenAPI, Bruno

Kulala comes with built-in support for importing and exporting HTTP collections to and from various formats like Postman, OpenAPI, and Bruno.

Usage​

Importing​

The import is provided by the formatter module which should be enabled in the options:

opts = { lsp = { formatter = true } }

Import can be run either through Convert to HTTP code action, which is available in json, yaml, and bruno files, or directly with require("kulala").import(from) command, where from=nil|"postman"|"openapi"|"bruno", while inside the buffer with the file to import.

The importer will try to detect the format automatically, but if it fails, you can specify it explicitly by passing the format as an argument.

Exporting​

Currently, Kulala supports exporting to Postman collections format only.

Export can be run either through Export file or Export folder code action, which is available in http and rest files, or directly with require("kulala").export(path) command, where path=file|folder|nil, while inside the buffer with the HTTP collection to export.

info

Currently, Kulala supports export of Authentication data for Basic and Bearer authentication methods only. If you need to export other authentication methods, please open an issue on the Kulala GitHub repository.
