Gist Mock Server

This mock server provides an in-memory Gist API for end-to-end testing. It follows the GitHub Gist REST contract for the endpoints needed by this project.

Supported APIs

• GET /gists?per_page=100&page=1
• GET /gists/:id
• POST /gists (create)
• PATCH /gists/:id (official update API)
• POST /gists/:id (compat mode for current project call path)
• DELETE /gists/:id
• GET /raw/:id/:filename

Response shape is primarily aligned with GitHub Gist REST API, while keeping compatibility with current project call paths (for example POST /gists/:id).

Run

cd examples
npm install
npm run start:gist

Optional environment variables:

• PORT (default: 12347)
• GIST_TOKEN (if set, requests must contain Authorization: token <GIST_TOKEN> or Authorization: Bearer <GIST_TOKEN>)

Test with curl

curl -X POST "http://localhost:12347/gists" \
  -H "Authorization: token demo" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "public": false,
    "description": "Used for timer to save meta info. Don'\''t change this description :)",
    "files": {
      "README.md": {"filename": "README.md", "content": "hello"},

    }
  }'
