cURL importer: Parse environment variables

[davidgrisham]

I'm hoping to import curl requests and have Insomnia environment variables parsed + translated on import. For example, I've tried to import a curl request that looks something like:

curl -XGET {{apiURL}}/stuff

hoping the apiURL variable would be preserved in the Insomnia request, like so:

Currently, with that specific example the URL isn't parsed at all and is just empty upon import.

I've looked around quite a bit through both the Insomnia and Insomnium repos but I'm not seeing this specific feature anywhere. For me, the best syntax would be to support simple shell environment variables, e.g.

curl -XGET $API_URL/stuff
# or
curl -XGET ${API_URL}/stuff

My specific use case is that I'm writing a tool to generate curl requests for everything in my API, and I'd like to easily import those into Insomnia. This is why I mention the shell environment variable syntax, because then I could easily have environment-based curl commands that can be imported into Insomnia and, with this feature, just swap to using the Insomnia environment.

Edit:

Ideally this would apply to everything in the query, including e.g. headers:

curl -H "Authorization: API-Key ${API_KEY}" -XGET ${API_URL}/stuff
