The command "http ${https:--example-com}" appears to be executed in a command-line interface or terminal.
In this command, "http" is likely a command-line tool or a programming language library used to make HTTP requests. The "${https:--example-com}" part is a command-line argument or parameter passed to the "http" command.
This argument "${https:--example-com}" seems to be defining the target URL for an HTTP request. It may use a syntax similar to templating or variable substitution commonly seen in command-line interfaces or scripting languages.
Based on the structure of this argument, it appears to be using a placeholder "$" followed by braces "{}" to substitute a value. In this case, it seems to be the value "https:--example-com". However, please note that the use of "--example-com" instead of a valid domain name may be just for example purposes. A valid URL would contain a specific domain name, such as "https://www.example.com".
To fully understand the functionality and purpose of this command, it would be necessary to know the context, language, or tool being used. The "http" command could refer to a specific command-line HTTP client library or utility, and its behavior would depend on its specific implementation or usage.
