HTTPretty now supports asyncio!

Try it yourself!

class AioHttpEntryTestCase(TestCase):
    @httprettified
    def test_https_session(self):
        url = 'https://httpbin.org/ip'
        HTTPretty.register_uri(
            HTTPretty.GET,
            url,
            body=json.dumps(dict(origin='127.0.0.1')),
        )        async def main(l):
            async with aiohttp.ClientSession(loop=l) as session:
                with async_timeout.timeout(3):
                    async with session.get(url) as get_response:
                        assert get_response.status == 200
                        assert await get_response.text() == '{"origin": "127.0.0.1"}'        loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
        loop.set_debug(True)
        loop.run_until_complete(main(loop))

Well, I forgot the import block.

import jsonimport aiohttp
import asyncio
import async_timeout
from unittest import TestCasefrom mocket.plugins.httpretty import HTTPretty, httprettified

Wait! Mocket?! What the Hell is that? We were supposed to talk about HTTPretty!

Yeah, you’re right, and more or less we are talking about it, or better, we are talking about a project born in 2013 and initially inspired by HTTPretty.

Then, in 4 years much water has flowed under the bridge, and after a long period where we almost forgot it, Mocket kept growing even if for long I have been the only developer to maintain it.

So, back to the example, this would be the Mocket way to do the same:

import jsonimport aiohttp
import asyncio
import async_timeout
from unittest import TestCasefrom mocket.mocket import mocketize
from mocket.mockhttp import Entryclass AioHttpEntryTestCase(TestCase):
    @mocketize
    def test_https_session(self):
        url = 'https://httpbin.org/ip'
        Entry.single_register(
            Entry.GET,
            url,
            body=json.dumps(dict(origin='127.0.0.1')),
        )        async def main(l):
            async with aiohttp.ClientSession(loop=l) as session:
                with async_timeout.timeout(3):
                    async with session.get(url) as get_response:
                        assert get_response.status == 200
                        assert await get_response.text() == '{"origin": "127.0.0.1"}'        loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
        loop.set_debug(True)
        loop.run_until_complete(main(loop))

So, if you like it, I encourage you to do one or more of the following things:
