hoverfly

Minor refactoring, added memory cache that is used by 3rd party libraries for temporary stuff.

• BoltDB backend moved to separate package, currently used for requests/responses and metadata storage.
• Request body is now being minified before creating unique fingerprint ID to remove all spaces/new line symbols for JSON and XML content types.
• Destination can now be updated through API (restarts proxy goroutine)

multiple -dest flags are now available for providing a list of hosts that should be virtualized

added new metadata API, see readme for more.

Hoverfly is now a library, also few minor fixes

Added initial support for metrics, counting how many requests pass through hoverfly, also separates this info into different modes. This is available through /stats API or as a stream of messages through /statsws. Web admin now shows this information.

Improved logging, added lots of tests, additional error handling that will help in some cases. Focusing on stability.

Now static files will be embedded into binary, easier deployment!

minor changes in encoding/decoding data that goes into boltdb

Minor refactoring, changed how configuration is handled, how settings are initiated, also added mutex for mode checking

minor fixes, updated git submodules

Major change:

• Moving from Redis to BoltDB for persistence, this reduces dependencies to 0 👍

There are also some minor changes and fixes

Minor fix

• Introduced new modes (more on those in readme):
  • synthesize
  • modify
• Added admin web UI to change modes, etc.
• Testing
• Middleware now affects --capture mode

This release introduces some changes, now we have three modes:

• --capture (to capture)
• --synthesize (all requests are sent to middleware and response is expected to come from middleware, requests are not allowed to propagate further)
• virtualize mode is the default one when you are not supplying mode flags

Biggest change is --middleware support, so now you can write middleware modules in any language, more on this stuff in readme.
