nginx-mocker is a convenient utility designed to simulate the default NGINX web page. Whether you're a developer needing to test applications against an NGINX response, or you're learning about client-server interactions, nginx-mocker provides a quick and easy way to mimic an NGINX server behavior. This utility is written in Rust and uses Hyper, an HTTP library for Rust, to create a server that listens to requests and responds with the default NGINX page.
- Returns the default NGINX web page on GET requests to the root ("/") endpoint.
- Lightweight and easy to use.
- No need to set up complex NGINX infrastructure.
To use nginx-mocker, you'll need to have Rust installed on your machine.
- Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/wiresock/nginx-mocker.git
- Navigate to the project directory:
cd nginx-mocker
- Build and run the application:
cargo build
cargo run
or you can specify the port number when you run the application:
cargo run <port_number>
The server will start and listen for incoming connections. Press ENTER to exit the server.
Once the server is running, simply make a GET request to http://localhost:<port_number>/ to receive the default NGINX page.
For example, using curl:
curl http://localhost:<port_number>/
