What are people using it for?

Creating the product PoC or demo before even starting out with the backend
REST, GraphQL, and other APIs mocking and testing
Hiding critical enterprise infrastructure behind a simple static facade
Hacking and fine-tuning HTTP communications on both server and client sides

Get started

Download the latest release of df.jar

Copy-paste the content of the dump example to the file dump.txt:

GET /api/customer/123 HTTP/1.1

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json

{
    "id": 123,
    "fname": "John",
    "lname": "Doe",
    "email": ["john@example.com", "johndoe@example.com"]
}

Start the server from command line:
```
java -jar df.jar --dump dump.txt
```
Use a browser to check whether the server is running:
```
http://localhost:8080/api/customer/123
```
Get response:

That's it!

For more examples see the cheatsheet.
Also take look at REST version of the Spring PetClinic built with DeepfakeHTTP.

Start server on few dump files:

java -jar df.jar --dump dump1.txt dump2.txt dump3.txt

Start server with built-in OpenAPI client with custom title:

java -jar df.jar --openapi-path /api --openapi-title 'My REST API v18.2.1' --dump dump.txt

even more examples…

Collect live request/response to file:

java -jar df.jar --collect /home/john/live.txt --dump dump.txt

Specify JSON data file to populate templates:

java -jar df.jar --data /home/john/data.json --dump dump.txt

Print dump files statistics to stdout as JSON:

java -jar df.jar --print-info --dump dump.txt

Print dump requests to stdout as JSON:

java -jar df.jar --print-requests --dump dump.txt

Print OpenAPI specification to stdout as JSON:

java -jar df.jar --print-openapi --dump dump.txt

Prerequisites

Java 15 or above

How does it work?

Got the client's request.
Search the dump for corresponded entry (request-response pair) by matching all specified request's parts:
method, URI, headers, and body.
If the entry was found, the server sends the appropriate response to the client.
If the entry was not found, the server sends a status 404.

That's all.

APPENDIX B.
Optional REQUEST / RESPONSE headers

Header	Description
X-Delay	Request or response delay (in milliseconds). Examples: Two seconds request delay: `httpx GET / HTTP/1.1 X-Delay: 2000` Two seconds response delay: `HTTP/1.1 200 OK X-Delay: 2000`
X-Content-Source	The URL of the externally hosted content. The content from the URL will be sent as the response body. Supported protocols: `http:`, `https:`, `file:`, `data:`. If the URL provides its own content type and there is no `Content-Type` header in the dump, the original `Content-Type` header received from the URL will be sent along with other response headers. This header is useful when you want to send content hosted on a remote server or just send binary data as a response body. Examples: Get a response body from a remote server: `httpx HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: application/json X-Content-Source: http://example.com/api/car/1234.json` Get a response body from a file: `httpx HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: image/jpeg X-Content-Source: file:///home/john/photo.jpeg` Get a response body from a data URI: `httpx HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: image/gif X-Content-Source: data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAP...`
X-OpenAPI-Summary	OpenAPI request summary text. Example: `httpx GET /api/customer{id} HTTP/1.1 X-OpenAPI-Summary: Get customer information` See Also: `X-OpenAPI-Description` `X-OpenAPI-Tags` `X-OpenAPI-Parameters`
X-OpenAPI-Description	OpenAPI request description text. Example: `httpx GET /api/customer{id} HTTP/1.1 X-OpenAPI-Summary: Get customer information X-OpenAPI-Description: This API extracts customer info from db` See Also: `X-OpenAPI-Summary` `X-OpenAPI-Tags` `X-OpenAPI-Parameters`
X-OpenAPI-Tags	OpenAPI request comma-separated tag list. Example: `httpx GET /api/customer{id} HTTP/1.1 X-OpenAPI-Summary: Get customer information X-OpenAPI-Description: This API extracts customer info from db X-OpenAPI-Tags: Work with customer, Buyers, Login info` See Also: `X-OpenAPI-Summary` `X-OpenAPI-Description` `X-OpenAPI-Parameters`
X-OpenAPI-Parameters	OpenAPI request parameters information. Example: `httpx GET /api/customer{id} HTTP/1.1 X-OpenAPI-Summary: Get customer information X-OpenAPI-Description: This API extracts customer info from db X-OpenAPI-Tags: Work with customer, Buyers, Login info X-OpenAPI-Parameters: name=cust_id;description=Customer ID, name=rdate;description=Review Date` See Also: `X-OpenAPI-Summary` `X-OpenAPI-Description` `X-OpenAPI-Tags`
X-Forward-To	Forward client request to specified origin. Acts as a forward proxy. Example: `HTTP/1.1 X-Forward-To: http://example.com:8080`
X-Handler-CGI	CGI (Common Gateway Interface) program. Example: `HTTP/1.1 200 OK X-Handler-CGI: /home/john/myprog.sh param1 param2` See Also: `X-Handler-XGI` `X-Handler-JS`
X-Handler-XGI	XGI (Extended Gateway Interface) program. XGI program is very similar to CGI, but unlike CGI, the XGI program reads from stdin not only the body of the request but also the first line and the headers. In response XGI program writes status line, headers and response body into stdout. All CGI environment variables are also available to XGI program. Example: `HTTP/1.1 X-XGI: /home/john/myprog.sh param1 param2` See Also: `X-Handler-CGI` `X-Handler-JS`
X-Handler-JS	JavaScript response handler function. The JavaScript functions are taken from the context files listed in the `--js <file\|url>...` option. The following objects are provided as handler function parameters: `request` - object, READ ONLY `request.method`: string E.g. `request.method` ➞ `post` `request.path`: string E.g. `request.path` ➞ `/api/customers` `request.query`: string E.g. `request.query` ➞ `fname=John&lname=Doe` `request.parameters`: object E.g. `request.parameters.fname[0]` ➞ `John` `headers`: object E.g. `request.headers['content-type'][0]` ➞ `application/json` `request.body`: string \| object E.g. `request.body` ➞ `{"fname": "Jonh", lname: "Doe"}` `response` - object, READ \| WRITE `response.status`: number E.g. `response.status = 200` `response.headers`: object E.g. `response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'` `response.body`: string \| object E.g. `response.body = {"fname": "Jonh", lname: "Doe"}` `data`: object, READ \| WRITE - persistent user data from the file provided by `--db` option Among other things, the `X-Handler-JS` header allows you to modify persistent data. Examples: JavaScript function modify memory data: `DELETE /customers/{id} HTTP/1.1 200 OK X-Handler-JS: deleteCustomer Content-Type: application/json {"id": "${request.parameters.id[0]}"};` `function deleteCustomer(request, response, data) { const id = request.parameters.id[0]; delete data.customers[id]; }` JavaScript function modify memory data and provide response status, headers and body: `DELETE /customers/{id} HTTP/1.1 X-Handler-JS: deleteCustomer` `function deleteCustomer(request, response, data) { const id = request.parameters.id[0]; if (data.customers[id] === undefined) { response.status = 404; response.body = {error: true, message: 'ID not found'}; } delete data.customers[id]; response.status = 200; response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'; response.body = {error: false, message: null}; }` See Also: `--js <file\|url>...` `--db <file\|url>...` `X-Handler-CGI` `X-Handler-XGI`
