Hi,

Just had a thought.

I regularly find myself using curl with authorization bearer tokens.
However since I cannot use .netrc for bearer tokens,
I tried to find another solution to automatically add them without needing
to include them manually each time.

The idea is to potentially use a combination of curlrc + file based headers
with -H @file

The curlrc would include the a header with a {{ domain }} like variable
syntax.

Like:
header @path/{{domain}}.txt

Where the domain will be inferred by the given domain in the command.

Example:
curl --url "https://example.com" --header @curl/{{domain}}.txt

Where domain resolves to example.com automatically. Because then I could
put the --header arg into curlrc.

Alternatively, what if @file could link to a bashscript to make this
dynamic?

Although a bash script might have insane security implications I do not
forsee at the moment.

Thanks

Bastian
