.reply is not returning the Interceptor

[idangozlan]

What is the expected behavior?

const scopeModel = nock('http://localhost')
          .get('/api/...')
          .reply(200, response);

scopeModel to be the Interceptor, so we can run nock.removeInterceptor(scopeModel);

What is the actual behavior?
reply() not returning the Interceptor, so nock.removeInterceptor(scopeModel); will not work

Possible solution
to return the Interceptor when using reply(), so we don't have to do it in 2 lines

@idangozlan reply returns the Scope instance, which is the expected behavior.

To perform what you're attempting to do, you need to save a reference of the interceptor.

  const scopeModel = nock('http://localhost');
  const apiInterceptor = scopeModel.get('/api/...');

  apiInterceptor.reply(200, response);

  // ... do stuff
  
  nock.removeInterceptor(apiInterceptor);

Is this mentioned or even alluded to with an example in the Readme? I swear I spent a long time looking exactly for this and couldn't find anything?

Not in any clear way. This should be included in #1606
