A simple REST Server based on actix-web that lets you add endpoints to test during runtime. While this was mainly for my own educational purposes (learned a ton, btw), I do hope someone might stumble upon this repo and find it useful and/or leave some pointers.
I'm certain there are thousands of other implementations, but I didn't check; sometimes, while playing around on new projects, I just wanted to have a convenient way (preferably via TUI) to change the API on the go.
You can configure server address, port and themes via toml or json files. The program tries to load your configuration file from command line options (--config), environment (ADPTV_CONFIG) and will finally default to some preset.
On startup, you'll be in vim-like Normal mode. Following the onscreen instructions you can use these commands to add endpoints:
| Command | Aliases | Description |
|---|---|---|
endpoint add <path> <response> |
ep a, ep ad, ep update, ep u, ep up |
Add or update an endpoint |
endpoint delete <path> |
ep d, ep del |
Delete an endpoint |
endpoint list |
ep l |
List all endpoints |
endpoint allow <method> <path> |
ep allow |
Allow an HTTP method on an endpoint |
endpoint deny <method> <path> |
ep deny |
Deny an HTTP method on an endpoint |
Supported methods: get, post, put, patch, delete (case insensitive)
In a separate window you can start hitting those endpoints with your app/curl.
