Do you have a network client that needs testing? I had some statsd metrics code I needed to test but I didn't want to start/stop a full Statsd server within my test suite. This gem aims to make it simple to run a server which can replay a set of replies and assert the expected network chatter.
- Low-level support
- TCP
- UDP
- Unix socket
- Considerations
- Smoother API for sending and asserting request/replies?
- High-level support
- Other gems solve this, e.g. vcr, not a priority
This gem is brand new and needs more features and a cleaner, more idiomatic Ruby API. Contributors and contributions very, very welcome! Open an issue or send a PR.

# UDP Server example
#
x = PhonyBaloney::Server::UDP.new(port: 8126)
x.run do |input|
ds = Datadog::Statsd.new('localhost', 8126)
ds.increment("some.metric")
assert_equal "some.metric:1|c", input.read(20)
end
#
# TCP Server example
#
x = PhonyBaloney::Server::TCP.new(port: 8126)
x.run do |buf|
large = "bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb" * 1024
large += "\n"
cl = TCPSocket.new("localhost", 8126)
cl << "aaa\n"
cl << large
cl << "ccccc"
assert_equal "aaa\n", buf.gets
assert_equal large, buf.gets
assert_equal "ccccc", buf.read(6)
cl.close
endREADMEs can get out of date, see the test suite for real code.
