Usage

CLI

# List all templates
request-mock template --list

# Use a template with default URL
request-mock template --name login -f curl

# Override URL
request-mock template --name login --url https://myapp.example.com/auth -f json

# With raw output
request-mock template --name getjson --url https://api.example.com/users -f har --raw

SDK

spec := mock.GetTemplate("login")
spec.URL = "https://myapp.example.com/auth"
h, _ := mock.GenerateOne(spec)

Template Override Rules

When using templates via CLI, the following rules apply:

• --url overrides the template's default URL
• --method overrides the template's default method
• Template headers, cookies, and body are preserved unless you pass overriding flags
• Template overrides do not modify the template itself; they apply to the copy used for generation

Custom Templates

You can register custom templates in the SDK by adding entries to the Templates map:

import "github.com/cyberspacesec/request-mock-skills/pkg/mock"

func init() {
    mock.Templates["custom-api"] = &mock.RequestSpec{
        Method: "POST",
        URL:    "https://api.example.com/custom",
        Headers: map[string]string{
            "Content-Type": "application/json",
            "X-API-Key":    "{{API_KEY}}",
        },
        PostData: &mock.PostDataSpec{
            MIMEType: "application/json",
            Text:     `{"action":"custom"}`,
        },
    }
}
