# OpenAPI Mock [](https://badge.fury.io/js/%40varkes%2Fopenapi-mock) The OpenAPI mock mocks the application APIs based on the OpenAPI specification. ## Features The OpenAPI mock brings you the following features: - OpenAPI Mock uses [Swagger-Express-Middleware](https://github.com/BigstickCarpet/swagger-express-middleware) to parse, validate, and dereference OpenAPI files. You can also create your custom implementation for responses or errors. See [this document](https://github.com/APIDevTools/swagger-express-middleware/blob/master/docs/middleware/mock.md) to learn how the API mock reacts to incoming requests. - Returns the OpenAPI specification as metadata: Call '/metadata' to see the OpenAPI specification in `text` or `x-yaml` format. ## Development Make sure you have first executed `make resolve` from the project root! To run the OpenAPI mock locally, use an empty configuration: ``` npm start ``` To run it locally with debug logs enabled, and an example configuration from the test suite, run: ``` npm run start:dev ``` After the startup, you have access to: - rest API - `http://localhost:10000/myApiBasePath/metadata` - console - `http://localhost:10000/myApiBasePath/console`
