mockserver-testcontainers (PHP)
===============================

[](#mockserver-testcontainers-php)

A [Testcontainers](https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-php) module for [MockServer](https://www.mock-server.com) — the open-source HTTP(S) mock server and proxy.

It starts the official `mockserver/mockserver` Docker image, waits for MockServer to become ready (`PUT /mockserver/status` → `200`), and exposes connection helpers plus a ready-wired [`mock-server/mockserver-client`](https://packagist.org/packages/mock-server/mockserver-client)instance.

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require --dev mock-server/mockserver-testcontainers
```

Requires PHP >= 8.1 and a running Docker daemon.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use MockServer\Testcontainers\MockServerContainer;
use MockServer\HttpRequest;
use MockServer\HttpResponse;

$container = (new MockServerContainer())->start();

// A ready-wired MockServer client pointed at the mapped host/port.
// (getMockServerClient() is the PHP analogue of Java's getClient() — the
// inherited getClient() name is reserved by Testcontainers for the Docker client.)
$client = $container->getMockServerClient();
$client
    ->when(HttpRequest::request()->method('GET')->path('/hello'))
    ->respond(HttpResponse::response()->statusCode(200)->body('world'));

// Point the system under test at the container endpoint
$container->getEndpoint();        // "http://localhost:49152"
$container->getSecureEndpoint();  // "https://localhost:49152" (HTTP/HTTPS share the port)

$container->stop();
```

By default the image tag is derived from the installed MockServer PHP client version (`mockserver/mockserver:mockserver-`), so the container and client always match. It falls back to `:latest` when the version cannot be resolved to a release version. Pass an explicit image to pin it:

```
new MockServerContainer('mockserver/mockserver:mockserver-7.4.0');
```

Configuration helpers
---------------------

[](#configuration-helpers)

Each returns the container for chaining, and must be called before `start()`.

MethodWhat it does`withServerPort(int)`Change the port MockServer listens on inside the container.`withLogLevel(string)`Set `MOCKSERVER_LOG_LEVEL` (e.g. `"DEBUG"`).`withMockServerProperty(string, string)`Set any MockServer configuration property by its env-var name.`withInitializationJson(string)`Copy a JSON file into the container and load its expectations at startup.Standard Testcontainers `GenericContainer` helpers (`withNetwork`, `withEnvironment`, `withExposedPorts`, …) are also available via inheritance.

Connection helpers (on the started container)
---------------------------------------------

[](#connection-helpers-on-the-started-container)

MethodReturns`getMockServerClient()`A cached `MockServer\MockServerClient` connected to the container.`getEndpoint()``http://host:port``getSecureEndpoint()``https://host:port` (same unified port)`getServerPort()`The mapped host port.`getHost()`The host MockServer is reachable on.License
