GuidWildcardMatcher to match on GUIDs

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I have been using the RegexMatcher to do matches for paths with GUIDs, but after a while the Pattern in the JSON mappings becomes unwieldly long in length when a few GUIDs are used.

Describe the solution you’d like

Would like a matcher to allow for matching a GUID (mostly in the Path). For example:

• Path - http://localhost/v1.0/4a7eaad5-bbe7-4579-bb0b-7c85352fe1b6/task/edef5b4a-33bb-4920-bb42-1d5e6283984e

• JSON mapping:

  {
      "Request" : 
      {
        "Path": {
          "Matchers": [{
            "Name": "GuidWildcardMatcher",
            "Pattern": "/*/{D}/task/{D}",
            "IgnoreCase": true
          }]
        }
      }
  }
  

Where the tokens used in the pattern match up with the GUID.ToString(string? format) method as described here.

Describe alternatives you’ve considered

None - I can use the RegexMatcher if the feature is not accepted.

Is your feature request supported by WireMock (java version)? Please provide details.

I do not believe this is supported in the java version (I did a search and couldn’t find anything that I could see)

Thanks @StefH , I was able to pull the latest version and use this feature. Thanks again for being so open to my feature suggestion.

I could try to integrate it on my fork as a single class integrated and put up a PR. Would that be helpful?
