Webservice-mock

Ultra simple key-value based webservice mock

Use it as a command line tool

You can install it with npm and serve content of a json file right away

sudo npm install -g webservice-mock
echo '{"a":1, "b":2, "c":[3, 4, 5]}' > abc.json
webservice-mock abc.json

Then browse http://localhost:3000/abc. Notice that webservice-mock used the file name to create a route containing your sample data. This way you can add as many data sources as you want:

webservice-mock my_directory/*.json

You can also get a specific value in your tree using /get route:

• http://localhost:3000/abc/get/a
• http://localhost:3000/abc/get/b
• http://localhost:3000/abc/get/c

More command line options

• --port=PORT: choose which port/socket to listen to (default 3000)
• --demo: load sample data at /demo
• --quiet: Prevent the server to log every http request

Use it from your node js code

var mock = require('webservice-mock');

// Load sample data
mock.setDefaults();

// Enable requests logging (disabled by default when using programmatically)
mock.setVerbose(true);

// Start the server
mock.start(1337);

// You can also load data after server start
mock.loadProvider('/my/dataset.json');
