# Description Provides the ability to use http commands as part of a pipeline. Additionally, this pull requests extends the pipeline metadata to add a content_type field. The content_type metadata field allows commands such as `to json` to set the metadata in the pipeline allowing the http commands to use it when making requests. This pull request also introduces the ability to directly stream http requests from streaming pipelines. One other small change is that Content-Type will always be set if it is passed in to the http commands, either indirectly or throw the content type flag. Previously it was not preserved with requests that were not of type json or form data. # User-Facing Changes * `http post`, `http put`, `http patch`, `http delete` can be used as part of a pipeline * `to text`, `to json`, `from json` all set the content_type metadata field and the http commands will utilize them when making requests.
Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
