Stateful Data with MockServer

MockServer provides a very light weight state object, which allows you to store and retrieve data between requests, making it easy to simulate persistent state:


// Create a stateful list of users
state.users = state.users || [];
 
mock.post('/users', (req, res) => {
  if (!req.body.username) {
    return res.status(400).json({ status: "error", details: "Missing username" });
  }
 
  state.users.push(req.body);
  return res.status(200).json({ status: "ok" });
});
