CLI wrapper for connect-api-mocker
npm i -g cli-api-mockerAfter you created your mock files like defined in connect-api-mocker documents you can simply start your mock server with running mockit command inside the root folder of your mocks:
$ mockitThat command will start to serve your mocks on port 9090 by default.
mockit command has 4 available arguments.
[-p | --port] with default value `9090`,
[-f | --fromPath] with default value `/`,
[-t | --toPath] with default value ``
[-c | --capture] with default value `false`
[-v | --verbose] with default value `false`
[-d | --disable-mocks] with default value `false`
These arguments are optional. You can use mockit command with any one of them or any combination of them.
You can see usage examples below:
mockit --port=8989 or mockit -p 8989 for running on port 8989 instead of default port 9090
mockit --fromPath=/api or mockit -f '/api' for running listening paths from /api instead from default path ``
mockit --toPath=/mapi or `mockit -t '/mapi'` for forwarding to path `/api` instead of forwarding to default path `/`
Or you can combine any of them like:
mockit --port=8989 --fromPath=/api --toPath=/mapi
Or
mockit -p 8989 -f '/api -t '/mapi'
Note: In next title you will notice config file. If there is a config file, config file will be active. But command line arguments are stronger. So if you use both of them together, command line arguments will override config file.
You can set your configuration with file mock.config.js file in the root of your project directory.
module.exports = {
port: 9090,
map: {
'/api': 'mocks/api'
}
}Configuration above will create a mocking server on running port 9090 and serve an api that defined with files in the mocks/api folder with a base url of '/api'. So after running your mockit command in the same folder with that configuration, if you make a request to http://localhost:9090/api/users, api mocker will respond request with file(if exists) in mocks/api/users/GET.json.
If you also want to use a proxy for requests that you didn't have a mock file, you can define your mock config like that:
module.exports = {
port: 9090,
map: {
'/api': {
target: 'mocks/api',
proxy: 'https://api.yourdomain.com'
}
}
}Proxy definition object is a http-proxy-middleware options object. So you can take advantage of all options of http-proxy-middleware library here. Here a more detailed proxy definition example:
module.exports = {
port: 9090,
map: {
'/api': {
target: 'mocks/api',
proxy: {
target: 'https://api.yourdomain.com',
pathRewrite: {
'^/api': ''
},
changeOrigin: true,
secure: false
}
}
}
}With capture mode, you can automatically create mock files from your api origin responses over proxy. You can enable capture mode by --capture (or -c) command line parameter or capture property in config file:
module.exports = {
port: 9090,
map: {
'/api': {
target: 'mocks/api',
proxy: 'https://api.yourdomain.com',
capture: true
}
}
}When capture mode enabled, if you don't have a mock file for a request and if you have a proxy definition, a mock file will automatically generated for you for successful responses from your origin.
You can also disable mocks to just use it as proxy via --disable-mocks cli parameter or disableMocks property in config file.
module.exports = {
port: 9090,
map: {
'/api': {
target: 'mocks/api',
proxy: 'https://api.yourdomain.com',
disableMocks: true
}
}
}
