HttPlaceholder is an HTTP stubbing/mock server that allows developers to simulate HTTP services for testing purposes. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install HttPlaceholder on Void Linux.
Before installing HttPlaceholder, you need to make sure that your system meets the following requirements:
To run HttPlaceholder, you need to install .NET Core runtime on your system. Here's how you can install it on Void Linux:
xbps-install -S dotnet-sdk-2.1
Next, you need to clone HttPlaceholder from the Github repository:
git clone https://github.com/dukeofharen/httplaceholder.git
Once you have cloned the repository, navigate to the HttPlaceholder directory and build it using the following command:
cd httplaceholder
dotnet build
After building the HttPlaceholder successfully, you can verify it by running the following command:
dotnet run --project src/HttPlaceholder/HttPlaceholder.csproj
This will start the HttPlaceholder server at http://localhost:5000. You can verify it by opening a web browser and visiting http://localhost:5000. You should see the HttPlaceholder homepage.
That's it! You have successfully installed HttPlaceholder on Void Linux. You can now use it to simulate HTTP services for testing purposes.
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!
