Moto - Mock Boto

Build Status Coverage Status

In a nutshell

Moto is a library that allows your python tests to easily mock out the boto library.

Imagine you have the following code that you want to test:

import boto
from boto.s3.key import Key

class MyModel(object):
    def __init__(self, name, value):
        self.name = name
        self.value = value

    def save(self):
        conn = boto.connect_s3()
        bucket = conn.get_bucket('mybucket')
        k = Key(bucket)
        k.key = self.name
        k.set_contents_from_string(self.value)

Take a minute to think how you would have tested that in the past.

Now see how you could test it with Moto:

import boto
from moto import mock_s3
from mymodule import MyModel

@mock_s3
def test_my_model_save():
    conn = boto.connect_s3()
    # We need to create the bucket since this is all in Moto's 'virtual' AWS account
    conn.create_bucket('mybucket')

    model_instance = MyModel('steve', 'is awesome')
    model_instance.save()

    assert conn.get_bucket('mybucket').get_key('steve').get_contents_as_string() == 'is awesome'

With the decorator wrapping the test, all the calls to s3 are automatically mocked out. The mock keeps the state of the buckets and keys.

It gets even better! Moto isn't just S3. Here's the status of the other AWS services implemented.

Another Example

Imagine you have a function that you use to launch new ec2 instances:

import boto

def add_servers(ami_id, count):
    conn = boto.connect_ec2('the_key', 'the_secret')
    for index in range(count):
        conn.run_instances(ami_id)

To test it:

from . import add_servers

@mock_ec2
def test_add_servers():
    add_servers('ami-1234abcd', 2)

    conn = boto.connect_ec2('the_key', 'the_secret')
    reservations = conn.get_all_instances()
    assert len(reservations) == 2
    instance1 = reservations[0].instances[0]
    assert instance1.image_id == 'ami-1234abcd'

Usage

All of the services can be used as a decorator, context manager, or in a raw form.

Decorator

@mock_s3
def test_my_model_save():
    conn = boto.connect_s3()
    conn.create_bucket('mybucket')

    model_instance = MyModel('steve', 'is awesome')
    model_instance.save()

    assert conn.get_bucket('mybucket').get_key('steve').get_contents_as_string() == 'is awesome'

Context Manager

def test_my_model_save():
    with mock_s3():
        conn = boto.connect_s3()
        conn.create_bucket('mybucket')

        model_instance = MyModel('steve', 'is awesome')
        model_instance.save()

        assert conn.get_bucket('mybucket').get_key('steve').get_contents_as_string() == 'is awesome'

Raw use

def test_my_model_save():
    mock = mock_s3()
    mock.start()

    conn = boto.connect_s3()
    conn.create_bucket('mybucket')

    model_instance = MyModel('steve', 'is awesome')
    model_instance.save()

    assert conn.get_bucket('mybucket').get_key('steve').get_contents_as_string() == 'is awesome'

    mock.stop()

Use with other libraries (boto3) or languages

In general, Moto doesn't rely on anything specific to Boto. It only mocks AWS endpoints, so there should be no issue with boto3 or using other languages. Feel free to open an issue if something isn't working though. If you are using another language, you will need to either use the stand-alone server mode (more below) or monkey patch the HTTP calls yourself.

Stand-alone Server Mode

Moto also has a stand-alone server mode. This allows you to utilize the backend structure of Moto even if you don't use Python.

It uses flask, which isn't a default dependency. You can install the server 'extra' package with:

pip install moto[server]

You can then start it running a service:

$ moto_server ec2
 * Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/

You can also pass the port:

$ moto_server ec2 -p3000
 * Running on http://127.0.0.1:3000/

If you want to be able to use the server externally you can pass an IP address to bind to as a hostname or allow any of your external interfaces with 0.0.0.0:

$ moto_server ec2 -H 0.0.0.0
 * Running on http://0.0.0.0:5000/

Please be aware this might allow other network users to access your server.

Then go to localhost to see a list of running instances (it will be empty since you haven't added any yet).

If you want to use boto with this (using the simpler decorators above instead is strongly encouraged), the easiest way is to create a boto config file (~/.boto) with the following values:

[Boto]
is_secure = False
https_validate_certificates = False
proxy_port = 5000
proxy = 127.0.0.1

If you want to use boto3 with this, you can pass an endpoint_url to the resource

boto3.resource(
    service_name='s3',
    region_name='us-west-1',
    endpoint_url='http://localhost:5000',
)

Install

$ pip install moto

Thanks

A huge thanks to Gabriel Falcão and his HTTPretty library. Moto would not exist without it.
