ts-generate-mock-data

• 💻 Instantly generate mock data, from actual endpoint responses, through a CLI - just follow the prompts and copy and paste your endpoint.
• ✍️ Data is saved in TypeScript files for seamless auto-import and easier tracking of unused files/variables.
• 🤓 Generates unique, readable file- and variable names.

[!IMPORTANT]
Currently the CLI is for safe http methods, and only GET is currently supported.

Testing

The project uses Vitest for testing, and Mock Service Worker for intercepting http requests. To run tests start the mock server and run the tests like such:

npm run test:server
npm run test

To ensure distinctiveness, a unique identifier is added to both mock file names and variable names. To achieve deterministic test results, the environment variable RANDOM_VALUE_TEST_REPLACEMENT must be set to 123.

Release
