Bug summary
As per the documentation, for impostman-import-file the env file is optional. Especially if there are no variables.
But whether it is invoked interactively or programmatically, in both cases it forces us to select a file. I chose an empty file, or non-json file - in both cases it gives an error :
impostman-import-file: End of file while parsing JSON: 1, 0, 0
Steps to reproduce
1. M-x impostman-import-file
2. Provide postman collection file
3. It asks for env file
4. Provide empty file
5. Error : impostman-import-file: End of file while parsing JSON: 1, 0, 0
Current behavior
Env file is not truly optional, even though it should be.
Expected behavior
Env file should be optional.Even if there are variables in the postman collection, the user should have the choice to import it anyway. It is far easier to edit the variables into actual values within emacs once it is in restclient or verb.
Suggested solutions
A. In interactive invocations when asking for env file, the default option should be "No env file". The user can then choose a file if needed.
B. In programmatic invocations, as by convention if latter arguments are not provided functions take default values instead of prompting the user. So programmatic invocation of (impostman-import-file "/path/to/postman/collection.json") should simply import the file without environment and defaulting to verb.
