Change mocks file

At a glance
Goal: Specify a custom mocks file for the MockResponsePlugin
Time: 3 minutes
Plugins: MockResponsePlugin, GraphMockResponsePlugin
Prerequisites: Set up Dev Proxy

By default, the MockResponsePlugin and GraphMockResponsePlugin Dev Proxy plugins looks for a file called mocks.json in the current working directory.

To use a file with a different name, use:

devproxy --mocks-file my-mocks.json

Alternatively, you can specify the mocks file in the devproxyrc.json configuration file. Dev Proxy automatically reloads its configuration when you save changes, so you don't need to restart the proxy.

File: devproxyrc.json

{
  "mocksPlugin": {
    "mocksFile": "mocks.json"
  }
}
