Serve HTTP statuses by URL
Project description
Serve HTTP Status by URL
Quickstart
pip install status_server
status_server
curl -i http://localhost:8888/200
What is status_server?
I was playing around with a load testing tool, and I wanted to generate more than one HTTP response type, so I hacked this together.
status_server returns the status code in the request URI. Want a 200? curl http://localhost:8888/200
Want a 404? curl http://localhost:8888/404
What if you want a randomly chosen value from a list of possible return types? curl http://localhost:8888/200/404/503
The above has an equal chance of returning either of the three HTTP status codes. (1/3: 200, 1/3: 404, 1/3: 503)
status_server supports all standard methods for requests:
curl -iX POST http://localhost:8888/200
curl -iX DELETE http://localhost:8888/200
Known Issue
304 (Not Modified) does not work. curl http://localhost:8888/304 will throw an exception and return a 500, not a 304.
