Ability to switch mocking on and off

[exnihilo-creatio]

I would be nice to have the ability to turn mocking on during development. The library currently has the method reset, which removes the handlers, and restore which removes mocking from axios. However, there is currently no possiblity to stop mocking, remember the added handlers and start mocking again. Think the opposite of restore, but on an already initialized adapter.

Or it's already possible and I can't figure out why.

All that axios-mock-adapter does is setting an adapter for the axios instance that you pass to it.
There's no built in support for toggling the mock adapter on and off, but it's pretty easy to achieve anyway:

var mock = new MockAdapter(axios);

// Save a reference to the mock adapter so that we can later reuse it
var mockAdapter = axios.defaults.adapter;

// Removing mocking behavior
mock.restore();

// Add mocking behavior again
axios.defaults.adapter = mockAdapter;

Indeed, it is easy to achieve, I just thought maybe having a built in support might be helpful, since its not a lot of code and won't have any effect on existing code. It's a nice to have kinda feature.

This would be as trivial to do if there is an option or if there's not:

if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development') {
  // Mocking code here
}

If it was as an option it'd be basically the same, let's say the option was called active:

const mock = new MockAdapter(axios, {
  active: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'
});

So IMHO it doesn't make sense to implement it.

very good
