concatinating urls with anchors

Hi, i am wondering if there is a way to get around using anchors in urls right now this doesn't work:

• name: GET Latest Testresult url: http://host.com/test/*baseline

Hi @Rashadse, unfortunately the functionality you're describing is not available in curl-runnings. Anchors are at the yaml level, which doesn't support anchor concatenation. Currently, by the time curl-runnings loads your yaml spec, the anchor information is gone.

If you want to have a bit more flexibility for general programming inside of your curl-runnings spec, I can think of two immediate options:

• Inject baseline into an environment variable and concatenate that instead.
• Write your configuration in a configuration language like dhall (https://github.com/dhall-lang/dhall-lang), and generate the yaml from dhall.

I'll think about ways we could support this behavior, there are a few options to get this implemented in curl-runnings.

Big thanks, please let me know if you implement this in curl-runnings.
