access request body from ReplyFunc ?

[helmus]

Is it possible to access the request body in the ReplyFunc ?

gock.New(myEndpoint).
	Post("/scim/v2/Groups").
	Persist().
	ReplyFunc(func(response *gock.Response) {
		response.???
	})

Yes:

gock.New(myEndpoint).
	Post("/scim/v2/Groups").
	Persist().
	ReplyFunc(func(response *gock.Response) {
		req := response.Mock.Request()
	})

If you want to use an ad-hoc request match logic based on the arbitrary body contents, you should use a custom matcher function:

gock.New(myEndpoint).
	Post("/scim/v2/Groups").
	Persist().
        MatchFunc(func (req *http.Request, ereq *gock.Request) (bool, error) {
           // do request body matching here
           return true, nil
        })

@h2non how can I then use the request object to read the request body ? req.BodyBuffer is an empty string ?

gock.New(myEndpoint).
	Post("/scim/v2/Groups").
	Persist().
	ReplyFunc(func(response *gock.Response) {
		req := response.Mock.Request()
                log.Printf("REQUEST BODY %v",string(req.BodyBuffer)) 
	})

EDIT: Can I then use what I matched with in MatchFunc, to reply with in ReplyFunc ? Or would I have to do the mapping outside of gock with a shared map or something ?

[h2non]

Well, you cannot do that at that level, but you can use the generic gock.Observe(observer) to track matched outgoing requests, read the body and do your own state mapping outside gock primitives.

Great ! Thanks for replying Tom, really appreciate it ! This gives me enough info to proceed.

@helmus Could you share an example of how you used gock.Observe(observer) to accomplish reading the request body?
