Example Server

This example server can be used when testing the example Android and iOS applications in the /example folder of the @capacitor-community/http repo

Routes

There are 7 Http methods included for each route

• GET
• POST
• PUT
• PATCH
• DELETE
• OPTIONS
• LINK

LINK is a common, but non-standard, Http method. It is used in the example server as a way of checking support for any custom Http verb. If it works with LINK it should work with any Http method.

Insomnia

Insomnia is a tool for testing requests to and from a server. The insomnia.json file contains all of the routes for the server. It can be loaded in Insomnia so you can test the server manually.

Testing

Testing only works locally for now. To test, run the webserver with npm start and then in another terminal/process run npm test
