A super simple HTTP server that replies with a fixed body and a fixed response code
This is a simple, small, self-contained, cross-platform CLI tool for debugging and testing. It allows you to return arbitrary HTTP responses and log incoming request data. HTTP/2 support included.
dummyhttp --verbose
curl -X POST localhost:8080 -d hi
# ┌─Incoming request
# │ POST / HTTP/1.1
# │ Accept: */*
# │ Content-Length: 2
# │ Host: localhost:8080
# │ User-Agent: curl/7.66.0
# │ Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
# │ Body:
# hi
Example with color:
dummyhttp
curl -v localhost:8080
# < HTTP/1.1 200 OK
# < content-length: 10
# < date: Sat, 09 Jun 2018 13:56:14 GMT
# <
# dummyhttp
dummyhttp -c 400
curl -v localhost:8080
# < HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
# < content-length: 10
# < date: Sat, 09 Jun 2018 13:57:53 GMT
# <
# dummyhttp
dummyhttp -b "Hello World"
curl -v localhost:8080
# < HTTP/1.1 200 OK
# < content-length: 12
# < date: Sat, 09 Jun 2018 13:58:57 GMT
# <
# Hello World
dummyhttp -b '{"Hello": "World"}' -H "content-type:application/json"
curl -v localhost:8080
# < HTTP/1.1 200 OK
# < content-type: application/json
# < date: Wed, 24 Aug 2022 00:55:35 +0200

USAGE:
dummyhttp [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS:
-b, --body <BODY>

Supports Tera-based templating (https://tera.netlify.app/docs/) with a few additional
functions over the default built-ins:
uuid() - generate a random UUID
lorem(words) - generate `words` lorem ipsum words
Example: dummyhttp -b "Hello {{ uuid() }}, it's {{ now() | date(format="%Y") }} {{ lorem(words=5)}}"
[default: dummyhttp]
-c, --code <CODE>
HTTP status code to send
[default: 200]
-h, --help
Print help information
-H, --headers <HEADERS>

--tls-cert <TLS_CERT>

Be verbose (log data of incoming and outgoing requests). If given twice it will also log the body data
-V, --version

This is mostly a note for me on how to release this thing:
- Make sure
CHANGELOG.mdis up to date. cargo release <version>cargo release --execute <version>- Releases will automatically be deployed by GitHub Actions.
- Update Arch package.
