Mocking API ​

The Mocking API allows you to create mock responses for testing and development purposes. It uses the go-faker/faker: Go (Golang) Fake Data Generator for Struct, previously https://github.com/bxcodec/faker package to generate realistic and randomized data.

MockMiddlewareOptions ​

go
type MockMiddlewareOptions struct {
  Wrapper      MockMiddlewareWrapper
  Manual       MockMiddlewareManual
  IsPagination bool
  IsDisabled   bool
}

The MockMiddlewareOptions struct contains the following fields:

  • Wrapper: A MockMiddlewareWrapper function type that represents the wrapper function to be used for modifying the model.

  • Manual: A MockMiddlewareManual function type (not shown in the provided code) that represents the manual mocking function to be implemented.

  • IsPagination: A boolean indicating whether pagination is enabled for the mocking API.

  • IsDisabled: A boolean indicating whether the mocking middleware is disabled. Setting the ENV environment variable to mock will always return mock data.

Setting Up the Basic Mocking API ​

Step 1: Define the MockItem Struct ​

Define the MockItem struct with additional faker tags based on the examples provided in the faker repository:

go
type MockItem struct {
	ID                 string  `json:"id" faker:"uuid_hyphenated"`
	Name               string  `json:"name" faker:"name"`
	Email              string  `json:"email" faker:"email"`
	Latitude           float32 `json:"latitude" faker:"lat"`
	Longitude          float32 `json:"longitude" faker:"long"`
	CreditCardNumber   string  `json:"credit_card_number" faker:"cc_number"`
	CreditCardType     string  `json:"credit_card_type" faker:"cc_type"`
	DomainName         string  `json:"domain_name" faker:"domain_name"`
	IPV4               string  `json:"ipv4" faker:"ipv4"`
	IPV6               string  `json:"ipv6" faker:"ipv6"`
	Password           string  `json:"password" faker:"password"`
	Jwt                string  `json:"jwt" faker:"jwt"`
	PhoneNumber        string  `json:"phone_number" faker:"phone_number"`
	MacAddress         string  `json:"mac_address" faker:"mac_address"`
}

Step 2: Set Up the Mocking API Endpoint ​

Define the NewHomeHTTP function to set up the mocking API endpoint using Echo framework:

go
func NewHomeHTTP(e *echo.Echo) {
	e.GET("", core.WithHTTPContext(func(c core.IHTTPContext) error {
		return c.JSON(http.StatusOK, core.Map{
			"status": "i'm ok",
		})
	}), core.MockMiddleware(&MockItem{}, &core.MockMiddlewareOptions{}))
}

Mocking Array API ​

Set Up the Mocking API Endpoint ​

Modify the NewHomeHTTP function to set up the mocking array API endpoint using the Echo framework:

go
func NewHomeHTTP(e *echo.Echo) {
	e.GET("", core.WithHTTPContext(func(c core.IHTTPContext) error {
		return c.JSON(http.StatusOK, core.Map{
			"status": "i'm ok",
		})
	}), core.MockMiddleware(&[]MockItem{}, &core.MockMiddlewareOptions{}))
}

Manual Mocking API ​

go
e.GET("/manual", core.WithHTTPContext(func(c core.IHTTPContext) error {
	// Return a JSON response with a status message
	return c.JSON(http.StatusOK, core.Map{
		"status": "i'm ok",
	})
}), core.MockMiddleware(nil, &core.MockMiddlewareOptions{
	Manual: func(c core.IHTTPContext) error {
		// Implement your manual mocking logic here
		// You have access to the HTTP context (c) to handle the request and response

		// Example: Manually return a JSON response with a status message
		return c.JSON(http.StatusOK, core.Map{
			"status": "Manual mock response",
		})
	},
})) // Apply the mock middleware to the endpoint

Conclusion ​

You have successfully set up a mocking API using the provided code. This API allows you to mock responses for different scenarios, such as basic responses, array responses, paginated responses, and manual responses. Feel free to customize and extend the functionality according to your requirements.
