Override the base Mock URL of any created service

[sgkiokas]

Hello!

I'm looking of the possibility of overriding the Mock URL of a REST service created either via OpenAPI or a postman collection. Currently, we have http://localhost:<microcksPort>/<serviceName>/<artifactVersion>/<endpoint>.

I had a use case that it would be useful to completely strip out /<serviceName>/<artifactVersion>/, but if I omit those data from the uploaded artifacts, this is not possible.

Can I achieve something like this as of now?

Thanks!

Hey @sgkiokas,

You cannot achieve this in Microcks, but we have heard about adopters doing this kind of thing by setting up a reverse proxy, which performs URL rewriting in front of Microcks. I'd be curious to learn more of your use-case and why it's not possible to configure the caller to integrate the /rest/<serviceName>/<serviceVersion> part in its base URL configuration for its API client.

Cheers,

I have to mock the Payment Service Providers (PSPs) for a massive (almost legacy) application written in php and composer and the only way to achieve the "wiring" I want via config files.

Because some async handlers have been written to trigger the redirection to the PSP, to a RabbitMQ queue and then back to the BE application, I had to change the aforementioned URL in the format I referenced.

For now, I did that with a simple Express Server with 1 endpoint per PSP that did the trick, but I wanted to do it purely with Microcks.
