Middleware in capture mode

[Alex Soto]

Hi, I am trying to capture some real data (hoverfly capture mode) and when I receive it then encrypts some sensible data.

My code looks like:

def main():

    payload = sys.stdin.readlines()[0]

    logging.debug(payload)

    try:

        token = payload_dict['data']['pairs'][0]['request']['headers']['Authorization'][0]

        logging.debug("token %s" % (token))

   .......

The problem is that the body of the payload is empty, but for example, running curl --proxy http://localhost:8500 http://localhost:8080/cart  prints the real output, so what I see is that what I am intercepting is the request but not the response. How can I do that?

Thanks.

Hi Alex, 

That’s a good question. I think you need MODIFY mode to intercept both request and response, see this diagram: http://hoverfly.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pages/keyconcepts/modes/modify.html

In CAPTURE mode, it only intercepts the request according to here: http://hoverfly.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pages/keyconcepts/middleware.html

I need to find out why CAPTURE can’t intercept the response which is useful for your scenario

Thanks,

Tommy

So, now we are wondering how is the best way to achieve next scenario.

We want to mask some sensitive data, so when we are in capture mode, the sensitive data from request and response can be stored as simulations masked.

So the idea is that when we run the tests in the simulate mode the data retrieved that is stored contains masked fields. In this way, we are able to share this simulation to other people or even push in github.

The problem we are facing is that to do this we need to start hoverfly in MODIFY mode, and reading docs says that in MODIFY mode the requests and the responses are not stored, so it means that in the simulate mode we get no data.

So what is the best way to proceed in this case?
