h2i

h2i is an interactive HTTP/2 ("h2") console debugger. Miss the good ol' days of telnetting to your HTTP/1.n servers? We're bringing you back.

Features:

send raw HTTP/2 frames
PING
SETTINGS
HEADERS
etc
type in HTTP/1.n and have it auto-HPACK/frame-ify it for HTTP/2
pretty print all received HTTP/2 frames from the peer (including HPACK decoding)
tab completion of commands, options

Not yet features, but soon:

unnecessary CONTINUATION frames on short boundaries, to test peer implementations
request bodies (DATA frames)
send invalid frames for testing server implementations (supported by underlying Framer)

Later:

act like a server

Status

Quick few hour hack. So much yet to do. Feel free to file issues for bugs or wishlist items, but @bmizerany and I aren't yet accepting pull requests until things settle down.
