HttPlaceholder is an open-source tool that allows developers to quickly create mock APIs for testing and development. If you are an Arch Linux user who wants to use HttPlaceholder, follow these steps to install it.
Before you install HttPlaceholder, ensure that your system is up to date.
sudo pacman -Syu
HttPlaceholder is built on .NET Core, so you need to install the .NET Core SDK on your system.
sudo pacman -S dotnet-sdk
Next, you need to clone the HttPlaceholder repository from GitHub.
git clone https://github.com/dukeofharen/httplaceholder.git
Once you have cloned the HttPlaceholder repository, navigate to the cloned directory and build the application.
cd httplaceholder
dotnet build src/HttPlaceholder/HttPlaceholder.csproj
After you have built HttPlaceholder, you can run it.
dotnet run --project src/HttPlaceholder/HttPlaceholder.csproj -- --help
This will display the help screen. You can modify the command-line arguments to configure the mock API to your needs.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed HttPlaceholder on Arch Linux.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
