How to use

Create an imposter

You must be create an imposter to start to use the application

imposters/create_gopher.json

{
    "request": {
        "method": "POST",
        "endpoint": "/gophers",
        "schema_file": "schemas/create_gopher_request.json",
        "headers": {
            "Content-Type": [
                "application/json"
            ]
        }
    },
    "response": {
        "status": 200,
        "headers": {
            "Content-Type": [
                "application/json"
            ]
        },
        "bodyFile": "responses/create_gopher_response.json"
    }
}

And its related files

schemas/create_gopher_request.json
{
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "data": {
            "type": "object",
            "properties": {
                "type": {
                    "type": "string",
                    "enum": [
                        "gophers"
                    ]
                },
                "attributes": {
                    "type": "object",
                    "properties": {
                        "name": {
                            "type": "string"
                        },
                        "color": {
                            "type": "string"
                        },
                        "age": {
                            "type": "integer"
                        }
                    },
                    "required": [
                        "name",
                        "color",
                        "age"
                    ]
                }
            },
            "required": [
                "type",
                "attributes"
            ]
        }
    },
    "required": [
        "data"
    ]
}

responses/create_gopher_response.json
{
    "data": {
        "type": "gophers",
        "id": "01D8EMQ185CA8PRGE20DKZTGSR",
        "attributes": {
            "name": "Zebediah",
            "color": "Purple",
            "age": 55
        }
    }
}

And then with the server on tap you can execute your request:

curl --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --request POST \
  --data '{
            "data": {
                "type": "gophers",
                "attributes": {
                "name": "Zebediah",
                "color": "Purple",
                "age": 55
                }
            }
    }' \
  http://localhost:3000/gophers

Docker

The application is also available through Docker, just run:

docker run -it --rm -p 3000:3000 friendsofgo/killgrave

Remember to use the -p flag to expose the container port where the application is listening (3000 by default).

NOTE: If you want to use killgrave through Docker at the same time you use your own dockerised HTTP-based API, be careful with networking issues.
