PyMockserver

Introduction

One more implementation of MockServer, but for simple tasks. It aims to be simple and fast.

Main differences to other solutions like https://www.mock-server.com/:

• easier to create mock
• easier to delete mock
• faster create and get mock for request

Usage

Create mock

To create mock, just send post request to PyMockserver:

curl --request POST "http://pymockserver/mockserver" --data '{
        "httpRequest": {
            "method": "GET",
            "path": "/test"
        },
        "httpResponse": {
            "body": {
                "status": "ok"
            },
            "statusCode": 200,
            "remainingTimes": -1,
            "delay": 0
        }
    }'

And now to request for this mock like that:

curl --request GET "http://pymockserver/test"

and this will return status code 200 and body:

{
    "status": "ok"
}

Delete mock

Same as create mock, but request method DELETE. So to delete previous mock send request:

curl --request DELETE "http://pymockserver/mockserver" --data '{
        "method": "GET",
        "path": "/test"
    }'

Delete all mock

To delete all mocks, just send delete request to /mockserver/reset:

curl --request DELETE "http://pymockserver/mockserver/reset"

Get all mock

To get all mocks, just send get request to /mockserver:

curl --request GET "http://pymockserver/mockserver"

Fixtures

PyMockserver has ability to load fixtures. To provide fixtures for PyMockserver, just set fixtureFiles in helm values file, ex:

fixtureFiles:
  fixtures.yaml: |
    - httpRequest:
        method: GET
        path: /test
        queryStringParameters:
      httpResponse:
        statusCode: 200
        body:
          status: "ok"

Request options

httpRequest:

key	example value	default	required	description
method	"POST"	GET	-	Specify valid http request method, with which mock will be returned
path	"/test"	-	yes	Path at which mock can be requested
queryStringParameters	{ "age": [20] }	-	-	Parameters that needs to be provided in request to get this mock
headers	{"x-user": "John"}	-	-	Headers that needs to be provided in request to get this mock
body	{"status": "ok"}	-	-	Whole body or part of the body that needs to match to get this mock
match_body_mode	"exact"	-	-	Specify how to match body. exact - will need perfect match, partially - needs only part of body to match

httpResponse:

key	example value	default	required	description
statusCode	400	200	-	Http status code that response will return
headers	{"x-user": "John"}	-	-	Headers that response will have
body	{"status": "ok"}	-	-	Body that response will have
remainingTimes	5	-1	-	Defines how many times this mock can be matched and returned before auto delete mock. If -1 it means that this mock can be matched and returned infinite times, and only way to get rid of this mock is to manually delete it or clear all mocks
delay	10	0	-	If greater then 0, it will delay response for that time. Value is expressed in milliseconds
