Setup an Express server to serve files from disk via OhMyMock

Run oh-server

$> node ./node_modules/.bin/oh-server ....

Custom server

If the oh-server does not provide all the flexibility that is needed, a custom server can be created using the OhMyMock SDK.

Typescript:

import express from 'express';
import * as path from "path";
import { createServer } from '@scaljeri/ohmymock-sdk';
import { IOhMySdkResponse, IOhMySdkRequest } from '@scaljeri/ohmymock-sdk';

const filedir = path.dirname(process.argv[1]).replace(/^\./, '');
const basePath = __dirname.replace(filedir, '');

const ohMyServer = createServer({
    port: 8000, 
    listenHandler: () => {
          console.log('Server up and running');
    },
    local: { basePath: path.join(basePath, 'test-site/data') }
});
const app = ohMyServer.app;

ohMyServer.local.add({ // settings
      url: '/users',
      method: 'GET',
      type: 'XHR',
      statusCode: 200,
      path: './users.json',
      handler: (data: IOhMySdkResponse, request: IOhMySdkRequest): void => {
        if (data.response) {
            const resp = JSON.parse(data.response as string);
            resp['1'].name = 'Lucas Calje';
            data.response = JSON.stringify(resp);
        }
      }
} as any);

app.get("/", (req: express.Request, res: express.Response) => {
      res.sendFile(path.resolve(path.join(__dirname, 'html/index.html')));
});

Run the server as follows:

$> ts-node server.ts

Javascript:

import * as path from "path";
import { createServer } from "@scaljeri/ohmymock-sdk";

const filedir = path.dirname(process.argv[1]).replace(/^\./, "");
const __dirname = path.resolve(path.dirname(''));

const basePath = __dirname.replace(filedir, "");

const ohMyServer = createServer({
  port: 8000,
  listenHandler: () => {
    console.log("Server up and running");
  },
  local: { basePath: path.join(basePath, "test-site/data") },
});
const app = ohMyServer.app;

ohMyServer.local.add({
  // settings
  url: "/users",
  method: "GET",
  type: "XHR",
  statusCode: 200,
  path: "./users.json",
  handler: (data, request) => {
    if (data.response) {
      const resp = JSON.parse(data.response);
      resp["1"].name = "Lucas Calje";
      data.response = JSON.stringify(resp);
    }
  },
});

app.get("/", (req, res) => {
  res.sendFile(path.resolve(path.join(__dirname, "html/index.html")));
});

.

$> node server.js

It might be required to add "type":"module" to package.json
