respond data

The respond table within each [[rules]] block specifies the response to be returned when the rule’s when conditions are fully met. You must define one of the following.

respond.file_path

Returns the content of a specified file. The Content-Type header is automatically determined from the file’s extension (e.g., .json will set application/json).

# apimock-rule-set.toml
[[rules]]
# when ...
respond.file_path = "response.json"

respond.text

Returns the specified string as the response body. The Content-Type header is text/plain.

# apimock-rule-set.toml
[[rules]]
# when ...
respond.text = "My reply !"

respond.status

Sets the HTTP status code for the response (e.g., 200 for OK, 404 for Not Found).

# apimock-rule-set.toml
[[rules]]
# when ...
respond.status = 401

Limitation

You cannot specify both respond.file_path and respond.text in the same rule.
