Mocking the Discovery Document

[ross....@udemy.com]

I am trying to mock the http response for the build.discovery call as outlined in this example:

https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/python/guide/mocks

However, I cannot figure out how to generate the books-discovery.json. When I make the call for realz I get a googleapiclient.discovery.Resource object, which doesn't have any methods for converting into JSON. 

Code snippet:

        self.__http = Http()

        self.__http = HttpMock(

                os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)), 'tests', 'discovery.json'), # how do I generate this?

                {'status': '200'}

        )

        result = discovery.build('androidpublisher', 'v2', http=self.__http)

Any advice would be appreciated!

I managed to solve this by capturing grabbing the request directly off the http object from a real request.
