HTTP static responses, like Fiddler's auto responder

HTTP Auto Responder

Useful tool for static responses. It's like Fiddler's AutoResponder.

Features

• Rule definitions with matching methods.

• Simple UI to manage Rules and Responses. You can navigate /http-auto-responder after the execution.

• FARX & SAZ file import.

• JSON files or boltdb for rules and responses storage.

• Besides of FARX importing, you can use directly serve FARX files but no UI support for managing it.

• Templating on response using a basic model created from incoming request.

  FARX Files

  FARX files can be served directly. If you specify a FARX containing dir in the config file, tool reads all FARX files recursively and serve it accordingly. No UI support if you are using FARX files.
  

  FARX files reloding

  There is a reload enpoint available for if you specify FARX dir. Example;
  curl http://localhost/http-auto-responder/reload?path=farx_test.farx
  

Installation

go get -u github.com/asalih/http-auto-responder

Then edit config.json

Example

The tool provides minimum UI except if you want to use FARX files. After you get the source or get the release binaries then just edit the config file as you wish then you good to go!

Config file needs a storage configuration and a port for to listening http requests. You can not use multiple storage option, please pick one according to your needs.

• databaseName: boltDB database name.
• jsonsFolderPath: rules and responses can be stored as json serialized if you specify the folder path.
• farxFilesFolderPath: farx files can be served directly if you specify the folder path.

In this example below, FARX folder specified.

{
    "databaseName": "",
    "jsonsFolderPath": "",
    "farxFilesFolderPath": "./farx",
    "port": 80
}

ToDo

• How can we use SSL? or should we?

http-auto-responder's Issues

Usage instructions

Can you please include some sample commands about how to use the tool.

Configurable latency per rule

As you may know Fiddler's AutoResponder allows us to configure latency per-rule.
That's a great feature while using AutoResponder to mimic real-world requests/responses.
I hope you can have some free time to add this feature.

Video demo, tutorrial

Can you make an introductory video? I don't know how to configure and use it.
Thank you very much.
