http4k-connect contributions

Notes for adding a new Client & Fake

  • Use the Example project client and fake as a template module.
  • The naming of the modules is: http4k-connect-<vendor>-<system>. We are also grouping the systems by vendor in directory structure. To add the modules in the right place in settings.gradle.kts use the functions provided.
  • The work for adding other http4k-connect Gradle dependencies is already done in the core build.gradle file. You just need to add external dependencies into the module gradle file if there are any. If not, feel free to omit it.
  • Fakes should extend ChaoticHttpHandler, which adds in the misbehave() and behave() functions to enable the Chaotic behaviour.
  • Each Fake should implement the FakeSystemContract.
  • Tests against external systems should be added wherever possible to prove the contracts are in place, or adding Docker setup to run them. This is work in progress.

Notes for adding Storage implementations

  • The naming of the modules is: http4k-connect-storage-<type>. To add the module in the right place in settings.gradle.kts use the function provided.
  • There is a contract StorageContract to prove that the implementation.
  • Testcontainers can be used to prove out testing for various storage backends
