Update Readme on how to get started

[techpavan]

As an end user, I do not have any clarity on how to get started with using this application. There are no releases, I do not see any executables in the source code, index.html opens as a blank page. Screenshots looks good, but there are no details on how to get into those screens.

The URL is provided at the top on the GitHub homepage => https://plouc.github.io/wiremock-ui/

This url just allows me to create a new server, but does not allow me to create new mappings, fetch existing mappings etc. FYI, I was trying to connect to a WM instance hosted in my local.

This is super buggy, excepting creating server, nothing work. (not sure if even this working, or just showing a message)

[plouc]

@amitg25, can you please be more explicit about "super buggy"? things could be fixed, until we have proper reporting about bugs/error messages and such

[plouc]

It's an early prototype, so I'm pretty sure some features might be broken, it took me some time to craft this tool though, so please be kind :) and try to be more constructive, otherwise feel free to use other solutions (like paid ones with proper support from a paid staff)

@plouc , i did not mean to rude. In fact i appreciate you took time to create a nice UI tool for WireMock. Here are the issues i saw

1. Create Mapping does nothing. (I was able to make it work just once but then i could not add second mapping).
2. Once when i made create mapping work but i could not add request header (i don't remember but there was button to add fixed params)

I am on Chrome (Mac)

@amitg25, no worries :) I'll try to have a look at this when I've some time for my OSS projects, would you mind tell me which version of wiremock (and config|args) are you currently using?

[amitg25]

I tried it on two macs.

Mac 1: I tried with Wiremock standalone versions 2.6.0, 2.12.0, 2.21.0 Mac 2: Had no Wiremock

But result is same on both the macs. I could not do anything except create server so did not reach the state to set something in UI

[amitg25]

It will be easy if you can provide right click on "Create Mapping" to create a new mapping. Similarly if mapping is created then ability to delete, modify on right click. (You may already have it, but am unable to use)

Hello,

I created a similar tool (with the same name included), maybe you can get some ideas. The bad part is that it only works on Windows.

Thank you []s

Does it work only on localhost instances? I was hosting one on azure, when I add the url, throws Invalid URL

[plouc]

@kbking01, it does, it might be due to CORS issues.
