Simulator API

This document describes the API used to manage policy types and manipulate the simulator.

The simulator supports different versions of the A1 interface. Some functions are common for all versions, and some are specific for a certain version.

Common Functions

Health Check

The status of the simulator.

/

GET

Returns the status of the simulator.

URL path:

/

Parameters:

None.

Responses:
200:

OK

Examples:

Call:

curl -X GET "http://localhost:8085/"

Result:

200:

OK

Supported Interfaces

The simulator can support different versions of the A1 interface. With this API the supported versions can be listed.

/container_interfaces

GET

Returns the status of the simulator. (Not available for A1 Standard 1.1.3)

URL path:

Counters

The simulator keeps count of different things that can be accessed.

/counter

Reset simulator

There are two ways to reset the simulator, delete all instances or make a complete reset which resets the simulator to its original state.

/deleteinstances

POST

URL path:

/deleteinstances

Parameters:

None.

200:

All policy instances deleted.

/deleteall

POST

Full reset.

URL path:

/deleteall

Parameters:

None.

Responses:

200:

All policy instances and types deleted.

Examples:

Call:

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8085/deleteall"

Result:

200:

All policy instances and types deleted.
200 ::

Response manipulation

It is possible to manipulate the response of all operations on the A1 interface (admin interface is not affected)

/forceresponse

POST

Force a specific response code for one (the next) A1 operation. After that response, the reponse code will go back to normal.

URL path:

/forceresponse?code=<http-response-code>

Parameters:

code: (Required)

The HTTP response code to return.

Responses:

200:

Force response code: <expected code> set for one single A1 response

Examples:

Call:

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8085/forceresponse?code=400"

Result:

200:

Force response code:  400 set for one single A1 response

/forcedelay

POST

Force delayed response of all A1 responses. The setting will remain until the delay is set to ‘0’

URL path:

/forcedelay?delay=<delay-time-seconds>

Parameters:

delay: (Required)

The time in seconds to delay all responses.

Responses:

200:

Force delay: <expected delay> sec set for all A1 responses

Examples:

Call:

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8085/forcedelay?delay=2"

Result:

200:

Force delay: 2 sec set for all A1 responses

Configure logging

Detailed logging of the http headers and payload are activated by default. However, it is possible to turn this logging on or off. The ‘off’ state will only log ip, url and respose code.

/payload_logging/

POST

Configure detailed logging on or off URL path:

/payload_logging/<state>

Parameters:

state: (Required)

The state, ‘on’ or ‘off’.

Responses:

200:

Force delay: <expected delay> sec set for all A1 responses

Examples:

Call:

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8085/payload_logging/on"

Result:

200:

Payload and header logging set to: on

Version Specific Functions
