Lightweight, blazing fast, cross-platform OpenAPI 3 mock server with validation
MIT License
A simple, quick, cross-platform API mock server that returns examples specified in an API description document. Features include:
examples
or generates examples from schema
--watch
)Accept: application/*
Prefer: status=409
--validate-server
)
localhost
out of the box--add-server
flag, in conjunction with --validate-server
, to dynamically include more servers in the validation logic--validate-request
)/etc/apisprout/config.json|yaml
)SPROUT_
, e.g. SPROUT_VALIDATE_SERVER
)Usage is simple:
# Load from a local file
apisprout my-api.yaml
# Validate server name and use base path
apisprout --validate-server my-api.yaml
# Dynamically Include a new server / path in the validation
apisprout --add-server http://localhost:8080/mock --validate-server my-api.yaml
# Load from a URL
apisprout https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/master/examples/v3.0/api-with-examples.yaml
A hosted API Sprout Docker image is provided that makes it easy to deploy mock servers or run locally. For example:
docker pull danielgtaylor/apisprout
docker run -p 8000:8000 danielgtaylor/apisprout http://example.com/my-api.yaml
Configuration can be passed via environment variables, e.g. setting SPROUT_VALIDATE_REQUEST=1
, or by passing commandline flags. It is also possible to use a local API description file via Docker Volumes:
# Remember to put the full path to local archive YAML in -v
docker run -p 8000:8000 -v $FULLPATH/localfile.yaml:/api.yaml danielgtaylor/apisprout /api.yaml
Download the appropriate binary from the releases page.
Alternatively, you can use go get
:
go get github.com/danielgtaylor/apisprout
If your API spec is loaded from a remote URL, you can live-reload it by hitting the /__reload
endpoint.
A simple endpoint which returns status code 200
is available at /__health
. This endpoint successfully returns 200
even if --validate-server
is turned on, and the endpoint is being accessed from a non-validated host.
Contributions are very welcome. Please open a tracking issue or pull request and we can work to get things merged in.
The following describes the steps to make a new release of API Sprout.
