About

micro-jaymock is a tiny API mocking microservice that accepts a JSON template in a POST request and returns generated fake JSON data. It supports template fields such as names, addresses, finance values, repeated objects, and other fake-data generators exposed through jaymock.

The service is used by sending requests to the hosted endpoint or running it locally from the repository. It is aimed at developers who need quick mock API responses for testing, prototyping, or generating sample payloads without building a custom backend.

  • POST-based JSON template input
  • Fake data generation from template fields
  • Repeated object generation with _repeat
  • Hosted endpoint and local development server
  • Node.js microservice implementation

Feature parity100%

This free tier is a public, always-available API with no signup or credit card friction, so it has real value even though there’s no paid plan to anchor against. Because the offer appears uncapped and perpetual, the practical monthly value is modest but non-zero; a small developer would reasonably treat it as worth about $1/month.

What's included in the free tier

  • Access to the public micro-jaymock API endpoint for generating fake JSON data.
  • Ability to send POST requests with a JSON template body to receive mocked data.
  • Support for repeating generated fields and objects using the _repeat parameter.
  • Access to example integrations via curl, httpie, request, got, and requests clients.
