Runtime

BASE_URL - It templates itself when the container starts

Dependencies

• supermodels
• governance repo

Commands

test

• does the readme contain the right branch
• dredd test the mock
• governance

build

X - syntax validation X - dereferencing

• generates readme

  • doc url
  • mock url
  • changelog

• compiles and dereferences the templated and decomposed spec

  • github
  • version
  • host
  • license

serve maybe mock

• starts a server
  • with the mock for the api
  • and the discovery endpoint service the compiled spec
  • and the human readable documentaion

dev

X - it builds the spec document

• it starts the mock server
• the mock server
  • is mocking the API
  • is serving the /discovery endpoint X - compat /discovery/doc endpoint X - compat /discovery/spec endpoint X - is serving the doc
  • is serving the spec document X - when the spec changes X - it rebuilds the spec X - it reloads the browser automatically
  • it reloads the mock

TODO

Security

• [] Make sure tokens are secure for forks in CI
• [] Figure out PR deployment for forks reflecting ^^^

Infra

• [] Conventions for environment varirables and configuration
  • service configuration
  • discovery: surrounding environment (local (mocking), stage, prod etc..)

Developer Experience

• [] STDOUT from deploy task
• [] Faster Docker build using arbitrary binary node-alpine + stoplight/prism images
• [] mock component binary, problematic license
• [] performance degradation by reverse proxying
• [] show OAS validation errors with line numbers
• [] faster build
  • [] using JS API instead of CLI
  • [] triggering mock reloadng instead of the full entire process/container lifecycle
• [] not only API Specification is the contract
  • [] scenarios
  • [] prose
