## Historique du projet et usages

httping is a ping-like utility for HTTP URLs. Instead of measuring ICMP reachability, it times the HTTP path: connect, send a request, and retrieve the reply headers.

### Historique du projet

Folkert van Heusden's project page presents httping as `ping` for HTTP requests and carries an older changelog covering early 0.x and 1.x work. That changelog shows the tool growing from basic request timing into SSL support, status-code reporting, Nagios plugin use, transfer-speed display, OpenBSD compilation, authentication, cookies, IPv6, and persistent connections.

The GitHub repository later became the download and source home. Its README documents a CMake build with optional OpenSSL, ncurses TUI, FFTW3 performance graphics, and gettext support, while repository tags show later v2.x through v4.x releases.

### Historique d'adoption

httping has remained a small systems utility, but the batch input records packaging across Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, MacPorts, Nix, Arch, Scoop, and Ubuntu. The author page also documents FreeBSD ports usage and 2006 Linux magazine coverage.

### Modes d'utilisation

The practical use case is checking HTTP latency and behavior from the command line, especially where ICMP ping is blocked or irrelevant. The project page includes a Nagios command example, and the README's optional TLS and TUI features show its fit for monitoring and terminal diagnostics.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

httping is package-nerd bait because it is exactly the kind of tiny Unix tool that fills one missing measurement: not a crawler, not a benchmark suite, just repeated HTTP request timing that packages cleanly on many systems.

### Chronologie

- 0.0.9: SSL support was added according to the author changelog.
- 1.0.0: OpenBSD compilation support was added according to the author changelog.
- 1.4.0: IPv6 support was added according to the author changelog.
- 2006: Linux Magazin and Linux Magazine coverage was listed on the author page.
- 2021: The public GitHub repository was created.
- 2022: Git tag v2.9 was created.
- 2025: Git tag v4.4.0 was created.

### Related projects

- Related tools include `ping`, curl timing, Nagios HTTP checks, ApacheBench, and MultiTail, which the author page mentions as a companion for watching output in a separate log view.
