# Postman

[Postman](https://www.postman.com/) is an API development tool, that helps build, run and manage API requests. The examples from the TLRE slides exist here too as a Postman Collection (`solr-TLRE-postman_collection.json`). We like using Postman becasue it makes tinkering with query parameters nicer and we think it is a useful way to follow along as you learn about tuning search relevance.

If you want to use Postman during the TLRE class:

1. Download [Postman](https://www.postman.com/downloads/) for your OS
2. Open Postman and Import (top-menu >> File) `solr-TLRE-postman_collection.json`
3. Define a global variable (grey eye icon in the upper-right) `solr-host` to point to your running Elasticsearch instance (default is `localhost:8983`)
4. Tinker with the base URL, Params or JSON Body (optional)
5. Press 'Send' (blue rectangle button right of URL bar)

This collection is also valuable for testing examples against new versions of Elasticsearch. Using Postman's command line tool [Newman](https://github.com/postmanlabs/newman) you can check all of the requests in the collection:

```
newman run --global-var "es_host=localhost:9200" es-TLRE-postman_collection.json
```
