Pact Mock Server FFI library [DEPRECATED]
NOTE: This library is being moved into a single FFI library pact_ffi.
This library implements exported functions using C bindings for controlling the in-process mock server for matching HTTP requests and generating responses from a pact file.
Functions
Includes all the FFI functions from the pact_matching_ffi crate.
init
Initialise the mock server library, can provide an environment variable name to use to set the log levels.
create_mock_server
External interface to create a mock server. A pointer to the pact JSON as a C string is passed in, as well as the port for the mock server to run on. A value of 0 for the port will result in a port being allocated by the operating system. The port of the mock server is returned.
create_mock_server_for_pact
External interface to create a mock server. A Pact handle is passed in, as well as the port for the mock server to run on. A value of 0 for the port will result in a port being allocated by the operating system. The port of the mock server is returned.
mock_server_matched
Simple function that returns a boolean value given the port number of the mock service. This value will be true if all the expectations of the pact that the mock server was created with have been met. It will return false if any request did not match, an un-recognised request was received or an expected request was not received.
mock_server_mismatches
This returns all the mismatches, un-expected requests and missing requests in JSON format, given the port number of the mock server.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The JSON string for the result is allocated on the rust heap, and will have to be freed once the
code using the mock server is complete. The cleanup_mock_server function is provided for this purpose. If the mock
server is not cleaned up properly, this will result in memory leaks as the rust heap will not be reclaimed.
cleanup_mock_server
This function will try terminate the mock server with the given port number and cleanup any memory allocated for it by
the mock_server_mismatches function. Returns true, unless a mock server with the given port number does not exist,
or the function fails in some way.
NOTE: Although close() on the listener for the mock server is called, this does not currently work and the
listerner will continue handling requests. In this case, it will always return a 501 once the mock server has been
cleaned up.
write_pact_file
External interface to trigger a mock server to write out its pact file. This function should be called if all the consumer tests have passed. The directory to write the file to is passed as the second parameter. If a NULL pointer is passed, the current working directory is used.
Returns 0 if the pact file was successfully written. Returns a positive code if the file can not be written, or there is no mock server running on that port or the function panics.
Pact model handles
For languages that need to build up Pact models, there are two structs that represent a handle to a Pact model (PactHandle and InteractionHandle). These handles will refer to Rust Pact models stored on the rust heap.
To create a new Pact model, use new_pact and then you can use the following DSL support functions to build up the model.
new_interaction
Creates a new Interaction and returns a handle to it.
upon_receiving
Sets the description for the Interaction.
given
Adds a provider state to the Interaction.
with_request
Configures the request method and path for the Interaction.
with_query_parameter
Configures a query parameter for the Interaction.
with_header
Configures a header for the Interaction.
response_status
Configures the response for the Interaction.
with_body
Adds the body for the interaction.
