🏷️ Feature Request Type

New monitor

πŸ”– Feature description

Hurl is a command line tool that runs HTTP requests defined in a simple plain text format.

It can chain requests, capture values and evaluate queries on headers and body response. Hurl is very versatile: it can be used for both fetching data and testing HTTP sessions.

https://hurl.dev/

Basically, including hurl would allow to get past custom login pages and retrieve data and automate checks which are not covered by currently available monitor types.

βœ”οΈ Solution

  • Include hurl as a dependency
  • Add a monitor type like the current HTTP(S) option should be provided, but instead of the 'HTTP options' section a field to provide a hurl script should be offered
  • Eventually provide a means to hide secrets

❓ Alternatives

I thought the full browser engine would offer something like scripting with Selenium, but it seems there is no such feature. Integrating hurl might even be a light weight solution compared to integrating a full and up to date web browser with a webdriver.
