[Archived] httpie running in docker alpine (python3+pip3+alpine+httpie). Follow up repo at https://github.com/alpine-docker/multi-arch-libs/tree/master/httpie
HTTPie can use a .netrc file to store auth information. There is no information in the alpine-docker/httpie README to suggest how to use a .netrc file. I figured out a way by adding -v ~/.netrc:/root/.netrc to the http alias. This volumes my .netrc file in my home directory on the host to the root user's home directory (/root) inside the container (httpie is run as root inside the container).
