Et Fake Acas Server

This gem is used either as part of a test suite to provide dummy ACAS services, or as a standalone rack application that can be used during development etc...

Installation

If used as part of a test suite

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'et_fake_acas_server'

And then execute:

$ bundle

If used standalone

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install et_fake_acas_server

and run it using


et_fake_acas_server

Usage

Usage During Testing

The server is pre programmed to respond with all 4 of the different response types depending on the first part of the certificate number requested. The numbers after the slashes etc.. do not matter

These are as follows (note, the 'R' can also be 'NE' or 'MU')

R000200/18/68 - Returns a 'No Match'

R000201/18/68 - Returns an 'Invalid Certificate Format'

R000500/18/68 - Returns an 'Internal Error'

R000100/18/68 - Returns a valid certificate

and anything else returns a 'Found' response

Development

This has no test suite - nor is it supposed to have else we would be testing test code which seems over the top. To prove it is working, use the api project (https://github.com/ministryofjustice/et_api) which uses it as part of its test suite.

Environment Variables

The following environment variables can be changed to alter the defaults

ACAS_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE ET_PUBLIC_KEY_FILE
