Mock that!

Installation

Mockserver can be installed globally if you need to run it as a command:

$ npm install -g @mockthat/web

$ mockthat --path ./custom-folder --port 8080
Mock that! is currently runnig at http://localhost:8080/
Serving Files: <your-project-path>/custom-folder

Note: You can install @mockthat/core if you want a version without the web browser, if you use @mockthat/web will be using the web from @mockthat/web

Options

• --path (default: <your-project-path>/mocks): Path that will be as root of mocks
• --port (default: 7000): Where the server will be started

Usage

You can check some demo structure at ./examples

Create a ./mock folder into the root of your project. You have the following entities:

• Category: is a main wrapper of module tests, you can have only one category running at time
• Scenarios: is the current state of the mock - there you can define api and websockets

Category

Every folder inside ./mock will be considered a different "category" for mocking - you can only run one mock category at time

1. Create a sub-folder into your ./mock folder.
2. Inside that folder you must create:
   • ./scenarios folder - where it you will have the scenarios for each mock state
   • main.json file - where you will have this category name

{
  "name": "Your category name"
}

Scenarios

On scenario is where you define what your mock will be using (api or/and websocket) and it's under a category, for example ./category-a/scenarios/<my-scenario>

A simple example of scenario configutarion:

{
  "name": "Scenario name",
  "api": {
    "active": true,
    "config": "./api/main.json"
  },
  "websocket": {
    "active": true,
    "config": "./websocket/main.json"
  }
}

API

You can check all fields type on https://github.com/mockthat/core/blob/master/src/shared/interfaces/main/service-main.interface.ts

Here you can define what port your API will be running, response code, what will reply, method and others.

Example of api JSON:

{
  "services": [
    {
      "api": "/balance",
      "method": "GET",
      "path": "./response/success.json",
      "code": 200,
      "header": {
        "custom-header": "Oh yeah!"
      }
    }
  ],
  "port": 5000
}

Websocket

You can check all fields type on https://github.com/mockthat/core/blob/master/src/shared/interfaces/main/service-main.interface.ts

Here you can define the repetition strategy, when it will be trigged and what messages you will be sending.

Example of Websocket JSON:

{
  "trigger": "IMMEDIATELY",
  "repeat": "LOOPING",
  "messages": [{
    "event": "dummy",
    "path": "./messages/1.json",
    "delay": 300
  }, {
    "event": "dummy",
    "path": "./messages/2.json",
    "delay": 300
  }, {
    "event": "dummy",
    "path": "./messages/3.json",
    "delay": 300
  }]
}
