Mockaco is an HTTP-based API mock server with fast setup.

## Features

- Simple JSON-based configuration
- Pure C# scripting - you don't need to learn a new specific language or API to configure your mocks
- Fake data generation - built-in fake data generation
- Callback support - trigger another service call when a request hits your mocked API
- State support - stateful mock support allow a mock to be returned based on a global variable previously set by another mock
- Portable - runs in any [.NET Core compatible environment](https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/5.0/5.0-supported-os.md)

# Get Started

## Running the application

### .NET CLI

Install and run as a dotnet tool:

```console
$ dotnet tool install -g mockaco
$ mockaco --urls "http://localhost:5000"
```

A random local port is chosen if `--urls` parameter is not provided.
- **Simple JSON-based Configuration**: Configure your mocks easily using a simple JSON format.
- **Pure C# Scripting**: Configure your mocks using C# scripting without the need to learn a new language or API.
- **Delay Simulation**: Simulate network delays to test how your system handles timeouts and latency.
- **Fake Data Generation**: Generate realistic fake data using the built-in functionality.
- **Callback (Webhook) Support**: Trigger another service call when a request hits your mocked API.
- **Verification**: Verify if a specific mock was called during testing to ensure expected interactions.
- **State Support**: Create stateful mocks that return responses based on global variables previously set by other mocks.
- **Portability**: Run the mock server in [any environment supported by .NET](https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/6.0/supported-os.md).
