Introduction

This is a tool to create a web server and mock data quickily. It consists of express and http-proxy-middleware.

Usage

Installation

npm install --save-dev quick-mock-server

Configuration

You can create a configuration file named .proxyrc, .proxyrc.json or .proxyrc.js in the project root directory. In this file, it must be or export a json object.
This json object is like this:

{
    "options": {
        "target": {
            "host": "localhost",
            "port": 9000
        },
        "pathRewrite": {
            "^/api/": ""
        }
    },
    "public": [
        "public",
        "mock"
    ]
}

The options is equal to http-proxy-middleware and the public is the static folders using express to achieve.

Addition:
To make it easier to map interfaces to JSON files, I added the $ symbol in pathRewrite to represent path variables.For example:

{
    "options": {
        "pathRewrite": {
            "^/api/$": "/$.json"
        }
    },
    "public": [
        "mock"
    ]
}

If you request the url /api/user, it will be changed to request /user.json. Now, if you have a user.json file in mock folder, you can get its data.

Initalization

var startServer = require('quick-mock-server')
startServer()

Quick Start

create a folder named example and run the following cmd in this folder

npm init
npm install --save-dev quick-mock-server

make the project with following structure:

   example
   |
   |---- mock
   |      |
   |      |---- test.json
   |
   |---- public
   |      |
   |      |---- index.html
   |
   |---- .proxyrc
   |
   |---- index.js
   |
   |---- package.json

Files content

// index.js

var startServer = require('quick-mock-server')
startServer()

// .proxyrc

{
    "options": {
        "target": {
            "host": "localhost",
            "port": 9000
        },
        "pathRewrite": {
            "^/api/$": "/$.json"
        }
    },
    "public": [
        "public",
        "mock"
    ]
}

// public/index.html

<!Doctype html>
<html>
    <head>
        <meta charset = "utf-8" />
        <script src = "https://cdn.bootcss.com/axios/0.19.0-beta.1/axios.js"></script>
    </head>
    <body></body>
    <script>
        axios.get('/api/test').then(function(res) {
            document.write(JSON.stringify(res.data))
        })
    </script>
</html>

// mock/test.json

{
    "key1": "val1",
    "key2": "val2",
    "key3": "val3",
    "key4": "val4",
    "key5": "val5"
}

// package.json

{
    ....
    "main": "index.js",
    "script": {
        "start": "node ."
    }
    ...
}

open the terminal, run npm start. You can see server has been started, listening in port 9000 output in terminal if no error.
open http://localhost:9000 in browser, and you can see the data of mock/test.json in web page.
