axios-hooks-mock

A library that simplifies mocking for axios-hooks, especially when multiple hooks are used together.

This library has full test coverage to ensure each scenario works and is written in TypeScript.

Installation

npm i axios axios-hooks
npm i -D axios-hooks-mock

Usage

Full Examples are available in the tests folder

There are a few ways to use this library to achieve your complex mocking goals. Examples will use jest, but this could also be used with other testing libraries. Any usage of mocked is using ts-jest/utils.

The library matches on a combination of method, url, and params. You must create one implementation per each combination you want to satisfy.

Each method of adding implementations accepts either a string (the url) or an AxiosRequestConfig object (this is the object you are used to, including url, method, params, data, etc.). The convenience methods only accept the url string (for hopefully obvious reasons).

You can use any combination of the below.

Always

jest.mock('axios-hooks');

Having the library do this would make it far less flexible.

Convenience Methods

import AxiosHooksMock from 'axios-hooks-mock';
 
const refetch = jest.fn();
mocked(useAxios).mockImplementation(
    new AxiosHooksMock()
        .get('https://testapi.com', [
            { data: { testData: 'theData' }, loading: false },
            refetch
        ])
        // Chain as many as you want
        .implement()
);

addImplementation()

import AxiosHooksMock from 'axios-hooks-mock';
 
const refetch = jest.fn();
mocked(useAxios).mockImplementation(
    new AxiosHooksMock()
        .addImplementation({ url: 'https://testapi.com', method: 'GET' }, [
            { data: { testData: 'theData' }, loading: false },
            refetch
        ])
        // Chain as many as you want
        .implement()
);

AxiosHooksMockItem Array + Constructor

This allows for a configuration array to be handed into the constructor like so:

import AxiosHooksMock from 'axios-hooks-mock';
 
const refetch = jest.fn();
 
const implementations: AxiosHooksMockItem[] = [
    {
        config: { url: 'https://testapi.com', method: 'GET' },
        implementation: [
            { data: { testData: 'theData' }, loading: false },
            refetch
        ]
    }
    // As many as you want
];
 
mocked(useAxios).mockImplementation(
    new AxiosHooksMock(implementations).implement()
);

Default Implementation

This allows you to return a tuple when nothing matches, as a backup. Two ways to use it, similar to other methods.

default()

import AxiosHooksMock from 'axios-hooks-mock';
 
const refetch = jest.fn();
mocked(useAxios).mockImplementation(
    new AxiosHooksMock()
        .get('https://testapi.com', [
            { data: { testData: 'theData' }, loading: false },
            refetch
        ])
        .default([{ data: undefined, loading: false }])
        .implement()
);

Second param of constructor

const default = [{ data: undefined, loading: false }];
mocked(useAxios).mockImplementation(
    new AxiosHooksMock(implementations, default).implement()
);

Alternate constructor

If you like: AxiosHooksMock.construct(implementations).implement();

API

AxiosHooksTuple

This is what is returned from useAxios().

type AxiosHooksTuple = [
    ResponseValues<unknown>,
    (
        config?: AxiosRequestConfig | string,
        options?: RefetchOptions
    ) => AxiosPromise<unknown>
];

Constructor

Param Required Type
implementations false { config: AxiosRequestConfig | string; implementation: AxiosHooksTuple; }[]

addImplementation()

Param Required Type
config true AxiosRequestConfig | string;
implementation true AxiosHooksTuple

get(), post(), patch(), delete()

Param Required Type
url true string;
implementation true AxiosHooksTuple

implement()

No Params

Q & A

Can this library give me a loading status, then change to a data response, like in real life?

No. This would vastly increase the complexity of your test, including async waiting, a Provider that would need to wrap your code and intercept useAxios requests, and more. It is much easier to test each state separately.
