Good day, lovely people!

🎉 We had a nice reaction to the http4k http4k IntelliJ plugin, so we decided to make it even better, by folding all of the http4k Toolbox functionality right into the IDE! 🎉

Now, as well as creating new http4k project boilerplate straight from the IntelliJ project wizard, you can:

- Generate http4k servers, clients and models from any (well formed) OpenAPI specification. Just select the spec file, then Right Click -> New -> http4k -> OpenAPI to http4k
- Convert raw HTTP requests to the equivalent http4k code. Select a .http file containing a request or response, then Right Click -> New -> http4k -> HTTP Request/Response
- Create data class models straight from any JSON/YAML file. Select the file, then Right Click -> New -> http4k -> Dataclasses

All code is generated in a .http4k directory at the root of your project.

As we add future functionality to the Toolbox, we'll be sure to keep the IDE plugin up-to-date.

Install the http4k Toolbox plugin direct from the IDE, or here on the web

Happy http4k -ing!
