mockifye-cli

mockifye-cli is a CLI tool for quickly mocking APIs with fake data. You can easily spin up a mock API server to simulate real-world data for testing or development.

Features

• Mock APIs with fake data from a JSON file.
• Set custom ports for your server.
• Lightweight and easy to use with just a few commands.

Installation

To install mockifye-cli, run the following command:

npm install -g mockifye-cli

Alternatively, you can install it as a dev dependency:

npm install --save-dev mockifye-cli

Usage

Once installed, you can run the CLI to start a mock API server. Use the --data flag to specify the path to your fake data JSON file and the --port flag to set the server's port.

Example:

npx mockifye-cli --data ./fake-data.json --port 8080

This will start the mock server on http://localhost:8080, and the mock data will be served as JSON.

CLI Options

• --data (or -d): Path to the fake data JSON file (required).
• --port (or -p): Port to run the mock server on (default: 8080).

Example Fake Data (fake-data.json):

[
  {
    "id": 1,
    "name": "John Doe",
    "email": "[email protected]"
  },
  {
    "id": 2,
    "name": "Jane Smith",
    "email": "[email protected]"
  }
]
