Show HN: Kreya, a Postman Alternative

71 点作者 CommonGuy将近 3 年前
Hi HN! For over a year we&#x27;ve been working on Kreya. At first, it only supported gRPC, because the alternative tools (eg. BloomRPC) were very limited in their functionality. Since then, we have added many features, trying hard to keep the UI clean while still supporting advanced use cases.<p>Yesterday, we released Kreya v1.8, which added support for REST!<p>In our opinion, Kreya is a good alternative to the existing tools out there. Sure, it may not support all the features that Postman has. But we think that Kreya has some innovative approaches (eg. authentication or API importers) that users may find interesting.

Postman, since they raised money have really lost their way in my opinion. The tool gets harder to use, with a more cluttered UI in every release. Seemingly random UI decisions make it awful to use.<p>Glad to see competition in the space, but I doubt that Kreya can claim to be a &quot;postman alternative&quot; unless it has 75% feature parity with Postman, simply because the range of ways people use Postman is so broad, that it&#x27;s an unverifiable claim.<p>Unless Kreya can do teams, testing, scripting, sharing, reviews, forking, publishing secret-link API docs, generating example API code out of the docs in Ruby&#x2F;Python&#x2F;etc, it certainly isn&#x27;t an _alternative_ to Postman for my team&#x27;s use-cases.

This looks very similar to Insomnia[0]. How does Kreya compare with it?<p>It also supports generated data, environments, references, and expiring references which might trigger a different http call to get a new value for them.<p>[0]:<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;insomnia.rest&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;insomnia.rest&#x2F;</a>

Honestly, if you’re a VSCode user, just get the “Thunder Client” plugin. Gets the job done, and keeps you in the editor!

The app consists of a closed-source binary, so not different from Postman in this regard.<p>Telemetry is opt-out and the gathered data points don&#x27;t seem problematic to me: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;kreya.app&#x2F;docs&#x2F;telemetry&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;kreya.app&#x2F;docs&#x2F;telemetry&#x2F;</a>

I have a love - hate relationship with Postman. Mostly because it’s super slow to use. I’ve been trying to find an alternative for long. But Postman has some nice things which it does really well.<p>1. Variables &#x2F; Dynamic Variables<p>2. GraphQL introspection<p>3. Pre&#x2F;Post request scripts<p>4. Collection Runner<p>Postman is pretty expensive for larger teams.<p>That makes it horrible to collaborate because then you’d just be sharing giant JSON files which can easily go out of sync between multiple people.

We decided to replace Postman and develop our own API Explorer for browsing ServiceStack APIs which is able to provide a simpler, faster and more integrated &amp; customizable UX:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.servicestack.net&#x2F;api-explorer" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.servicestack.net&#x2F;api-explorer</a><p>I&#x27;d still use Postman for testing 3rd Party APIs, but it provides a subpar UX for calling our own APIs which we can provide a better optimized UX around our USP features, e.g. the &quot;Code&quot; tab walks end user API consumers through how they can easily call each typed API in 9 different supported languages:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.servicestack.net&#x2F;api-explorer#code-tab" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.servicestack.net&#x2F;api-explorer#code-tab</a>

Shameless plug: There is also Grip (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gripgrpc.dev&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gripgrpc.dev&#x2F;</a>), a native macOS client for gRPC. Maybe check it out if you prefer a proper UI for input&#x2F;output messages instead of just a large JSON text field. (Disclosure: I’m the author.)

How do you make the site so fast? I am genuinely shocked at how fast each click loads (even first-click). I see some docusaurous and mdx mentions in the source as well as react components, but I am curious how you make it so speedy?

I like that the product page has comparisons to Postman, Insomnia etc on the bottom, but it could be more on point (e.g. a table).<p>Overall it looks quite well done, although personally I don&#x27;t have a real reason to use it over Insomnia.

Hey<p>This looks really cool. The pricing confused me a little to begin with. Pricing per individual vs pricing per user feels sort of the same when at first glanced.<p>This may just be my silly opinion but thought i&#x27;d offer my feedback as it might help.

I don&#x27;t understand why people use grpc. There are better ways.

I have no idea what postman (or gRPC) is. Could you add a short explanation in your post?
