<p>Launched the platform about a week ago. Looking for early users and feedback to help improve the service. My goal is to make this a paid service, but there is ( and always will be ) a free plan for developers.</p> <p>hook.io is a service where you can build "Hooks", which are HTTP microservices ( think of a Webhook on steroids ).</p> <p>Interesting features include:</p> <ul> <li>Hooks get raw access to HTTP request and response objects</li> <li>Full streaming support</li> <li>There is a social aspect to the site, as Hooks can be shared and forked through Github</li> <li>Hooks are currently written in Node.js and JavaScript</li> <li>Optional schema support for Hook input</li> <li>Auto-generated test forms for Hooks ( based on schema )</li> <li>Full binary data / Unix Pipes support ( see: <a href="http://hook.io/curl" rel="ugc">http://hook.io/curl</a> )</li> <li>Custom Themes for Hooks! ( see: <a href="http://hook.io/themes" rel="ugc">http://hook.io/themes</a> )</li> </ul> <p>The project itself is open-source and located at <a href="http://github.com/bigcompany/hook.io" rel="ugc">http://github.com/bigcompany/hook.io</a> I've released the majority of the stack already with release of the hook.io project itself coming relatively soon.</p> <p>Looking for people to try out the site, kick the wheels, and provide feedback.</p> <p>Thanks!</p>
