NodeJS middleware to record and playback web traffic
This module is still under development. We would love feedback and input, but things are by no means complete.
These are standard Express middleware called from within express. They should be written with that in mind. Documentation on Express middleware can be found here.
These are synchronous functions that pass in the request object and the configured options. These are defined in a config file.
If you prefer, you can provide a config file with the -c command line option. This config file should use module.exports to provide an array of processor configurations.
Here is an example configuration:
module.exports = {
path: '/path/to/replay/file.txt', // path to the file to replay
host: 'localhost', // the host to replay to
port: '80', // the port to replay on
mutate_session: true, // do we mutate the session? this re
debug: true,
processors: [
require('third-party-processor'),
require('../my/other/processor'),
function(request) {
// request is a passed reference you can transform \\
// options are what is defined below \\
},
function(options) {
// pass in options with a closure, then return the function
return function(request) {
// do work
}
}({some: 'options'});
]
};
