Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Customizing Generated Responses

The OpenAPI specification allows custom properties to be added to an API definition in the form of x-*. OpenAPI Mocker supports the use of two custom extensions to allow data to be randomised which should allow for more realistic looking data when developing a UI against a mock API for instance.

x-faker

The x-faker extension is valid for use on properties that have a primitive type (e.g. string/integer, etc.) and can be used within an API definition to use one or more methods from the excellent faker library for generating random data.

Given the following API definition:

openapi: '3.0.2'
info:
  title: Cats
  version: '1.0'
servers:
  - url: https://api.cats.test/v1
paths:
  /cat:
    get:
      responses:
        '200':
          description: OK
          content:
            application/json:
              schema:
                type: object
                properties:
                  firstName:
                    type: string
                    x-faker: name.firstName
                  lastName:
                    type: string
                    x-faker: name.lastName
                  fullName:
                    type: string
                    x-faker: '{{name.firstName}} {{name.lastName}}'
                  age:
                    type: string
                    x-faker: 'random.number({ "min": 1, "max": 20 })'

A JSON response similar to the following would be produced:

{
    "firstName": "Ted",
    "lastName": "Kozey",
    "fullName": "Herbert Lowe",
    "age": 12
}

The x-faker extension accepts values in 3 forms:

  1. fakerNamespace.method. e.g. random.uuid
  2. fakerNamespace.method({ "methodArgs": "in", "json": "format" }). e.g. random.number({ "max": 100 })
  3. A mustache template string making use of the 2 forms above. e.g. My name is {{name.firstName}} {{name.lastName}}

NOTE: To avoid new fake data from being generated on every call, up to 10 responses per endpoint are cached based on the incoming query string, request body and headers.

x-count

The x-count extension has effect only when used on an array type property. If encountered, OpenAPI Mocker will return an array with the given number of elements instead of the default of an array with a single item.

For example, the following API definition:

openapi: '3.0.2'
info:
  title: Cats
  version: '1.0'
servers:
  - url: https://api.cats.test/v1
paths:
  /cat:
    get:
      responses:
        '200':
          description: OK
          content:
            application/json:
              schema:
                type: array
                x-count: 5
                items:
                  type: string

Will produce the following response:

[
    "string",
    "string",
    "string",
    "string",
    "string"
]
