HTML getting rendered in the response field

What you did:

Add this HTML snippet inside the response field. And you will see it render…

<div style='width: 500px; background-color: red;'>Hey you!</div>

What happened:

It rendered the HTML

Suggested solution:

I think at the moment mockit will only return JSON responses. It would be nice that HTML does not get rendered as HTML, but also maybe give the user an error if HTML was added?

Option 2: We can try and support HTML as responses but not sure what would be involved.

Hey @samrith-s

@boyney123 left out the --build flag i mentioned in my PR some time ago - that forces docker compose to rebuild the images and consequently updates the code 😃

but hot reloading is also possible by mounting the code from your workstation into the container

looking at the Dockerfile, you should be able to just mount the whole directory into each WORKDIR, so something like this could work… but is untested

version: "3"
services:
  mockit-routes:
    image: "mockit-routes"
    build: "mockit-routes"
    ports:
      - 3000:3000
    volumes:
      - .:/usr/src/mockit-routes
  mockit-server:
    image: "mockit-server"
    build: "server"
    ports:
      - 4000:4000
    volumes:
      - .:/usr/src/mockit-server
  mockit-client:
    image: "mockit-client"
    build: "client"
    ports:
      - 5000:3000
    environment:
      - REACT_APP_MOCKIT_SERVER_URL=http://localhost:3000
      - REACT_APP_MOCKIT_API_URL=http://localhost:4000
    volumes:
      - .:/usr/src/mockit-client

by mounting the whole directory instead of just the routes.json, the used routes json changes from src/config/routes.json to ./configuration/routes.json

ps: feel free to ping me if you have any questions about docker/docker-compose @boyney123, i do have some experience on the topic 😃

Thanks for this @wohlben and helping out. I’m going to raise some docs about how people can contribute and get the whole environment setup as I realise it might be the easiest thing to get up and running (to work on)
