httpie: Send a POST request with redirected input.
$ http ${https:--example-com} < ${file-json}
try on your machine

This command appears to be using the HTTPie tool, which is a user-friendly command-line HTTP client.

The command is performing an HTTP request and specifying the URL as https://example.com. The ${https:--example-com} is likely a placeholder for the actual URL and might be replaced with the correct URL in the real command.

The < symbol is used for input redirection, indicating that the input for the HTTP request will be taken from a file. The ${file-json} is presumably another placeholder for the actual filename and would be replaced with the correct file name.

In summary, the command is making an HTTP request to https://example.com and providing the JSON content from the specified file as input for the request.
