Mockify is the API mocking made easy.
Record and replay your API calls for tests or development.
Warning: mockify is still experimental not ready for production.
- From npm:
npm install -g mockify- From source:
git clone https://github.com/gandi/mockify.git && cd mockify
sudo npm linkIf you want to work on mockify, use Gulp tasks:
cd mockify
# install dependencies
npm install
cd www
bower install
cd ..
# in a first terminal, watch your app (lint all JS and build the webapp for each modification)
./gulp watch
# in a second one, start mockify
./gulp start
# Just type ./gulp to see all available tasks.Open your browser at localhost:3000
Mockify is basicly a proxy manager, just follow those simple steps:
- Create a target toward the service to mock
- Enable it, the proxy will start
- Turn record mode on
- Make a bunch of api calls through the proxy
- Turn mock mode on
- Mockify now returns recorded requests
The proxy will record everything which passing through it and the mock will use this data to return exactly the same results, according HTTP verb, status, query parameters, etc.
Mockify uses a SQLite database to store data and spawn in-memory databases for mocking.
{<5>}
- Save query and response of API(s)
- Mock the exact same request with exact same results

You can fully use mockify only with a shell. Here a quick example.
$ mockify start
mockify daemon has been started.
$ mockify add-target 4000 http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com
The target has been added.

$ mockify disable-target 1
The target has been disabled.

/* All these methods return a promise: */
// start mockify daemon
mockify.start()
.then(function () { /* ... */ })
.catch(function () { /* ... */ });
// stop mockify daemon
mockify.stop();
// list the daemon(s) status
mockify.status();
// send a ping to mockify to check if it is running
mockify.sayHello();
// start the httpserver which serves the webapp

/* You can log all proxies / mocks output with the log method which returns an eventEmitter: */
mockify.log()
.on('response', console.log)
.on('out', console.info)
.on('error_', console.error);- Customize recorded sessions (edit response and request content, status code, headers)
- Add delay for proxy responses to test unexpected scenarios
- Enhance webapp logs to keep track of history
