Advanced tools
Package description
The `responselike` npm package is designed to create `Response` objects that mimic HTTP response objects. This can be particularly useful in testing scenarios where you want to simulate responses from web servers without making actual HTTP requests. It allows for the creation of response-like objects with properties and methods that resemble those of real HTTP responses.
Creating a response-like object
This feature allows for the creation of a response-like object with a status code, headers, body, and URL. It's useful for simulating HTTP responses in tests.
const Response = require('responselike');
const response = new Response(200, {}, 'body', 'http://example.com');
console.log(response.statusCode); // 200Accessing response properties
Once a response-like object is created, you can access its properties such as headers, body, and URL, similar to how you would with a real HTTP response.
console.log(response.headers); // {}
console.log(response.body); // 'body'
console.log(response.url); // 'http://example.com'Nock is a powerful HTTP server mocking and expectations library for Node.js. Unlike `responselike`, which is focused on creating response-like objects, nock allows you to intercept HTTP requests and provide predefined responses. It's more comprehensive for testing HTTP interactions.
This package provides a way to mock HTTP requests and responses in Node.js, similar to `responselike`. However, `node-mocks-http` is more focused on providing a complete set of tools for mocking the `http` module, including both request and response objects, making it more suitable for integration testing.
Readme
A response-like object for mocking a Node.js HTTP response stream
Returns a streamable response object similar to a Node.js HTTP response stream. Useful for formatting cached responses so they can be consumed by code expecting a real response.
npm install responselike
import Response from 'responselike';
const response = new Response({
statusCode: 200,
headers: {
foo: 'bar'
},
body: Buffer.from('Hi!'),
url: 'https://example.com'
});
response.statusCode;
// 200
response.headers;
// {foo: 'bar'}
response.body;
// <Buffer 48 69 21>
response.url;
// 'https://example.com'
response.pipe(process.stdout);
// 'Hi!'
Returns a streamable response object similar to a Node.js HTTP response stream.
Type: object
Type: number
The HTTP response status code.
Type: object
The HTTP headers. Keys will be automatically lowercased.
Type: Buffer
The response body. The Buffer contents will be streamable but is also exposed directly as response.body.
Type: string
The request URL string.
