Standalone Pact Verifier

This project provides a command line interface to verify pact files against a running provider. It is a single executable binary. It implements all the Pact specifications up to V4.

Online rust docs

The Pact Verifier works by taking all the interactions (requests and responses) from a number of pact files. For each interaction, it will make the request defined in the pact to a running service provider and check the response received back against the one defined in the pact file. All mismatches will then be reported.

Command line interface

The pact verifier is bundled as a single binary executable pact_verifier_cli. Running this without any options displays the standard help.

Options

Log Level

You can control the log level with the -l, --loglevel <loglevel> option. It defaults to warn, and the options that you can specify are: error, warn, info, debug, trace, none.

Pact File Sources

You can specify the pacts to verify with the following options. They can be repeated to set multiple sources.

Option Type Description
-f, --file <file> File Loads a pact from the given file
-u, --url <url> URL Loads a pact from a URL resource
-d, --dir <dir> Directory Loads all the pacts from the given directory
-b, --broker-url <broker-url> Pact Broker Loads all the pacts for the provider from the pact broker. Requires the -n, --provider-name <provider-name> option

Verifying a Pact via a webhook callback

The Pact Broker allows for Pacts to be verified via a callback that supplies the URL to the Pact to verify. To verify just the Pact from the webhook call, use the --webhook-callback-url set to the supplied URL in conjunction with the --broker-url option.

Provider Options

The running provider can be specified with the following options:

Option Description
-h, --hostname <hostname> The provider hostname, defaults to localhost
-p, --port <port> The provider port (defaults to protocol default 80/443)
-n, --provider-name <provider-name> The name of the provider. Required if you are loading pacts from a pact broker
--base-path <base-path> If the provider is mounted on a sub-path, you can use this option to set the base path to add to all requests
--transport <transport> Protocol transport to use. Defaults to HTTP.

Filtering the interactions

The interactions that are verified can be filtered by the following options:

-c, --filter-consumer <filter-consumer>

This will only verify the interactions of matching consumers. You can specify multiple consumers by either separating the names with a comma, or repeating the option.

--filter-description <filter-description>

This option will filter the interactions that are verified that match by description. You can use a regular expression to match.

--filter-state <filter-state>

This option will filter the interactions that are verified that match by provider state. You can use a regular expression to match. Can't be used with the --filter-no-state option.

--filter-no-state

This option will filter the interactions that are verified that don't have a defined provider state. Can't be used with the --filter-state option.

State change requests

Provider states are a mechanism to define the state that the provider needs to be in to be able to verify a particular request. This is achieved by setting a state change URL that will receive a POST request with the provider state before the actual request is made.

NOTE: For verifying messages fetched via HTTP, the provider state is also passed in the request to fetch the message, so the state change URL is not required.

For example, if a Pact file being verified has a provider state "a user exists in the database" and the provider state URL is set to http://localhost:8080/provider-state, then the following request would be made before the interaction is verified:

POST /provider-state HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080
content-type: application/json

{
    "state": "a user exists in the database",
    "params": {},
    "action": "setup"
}

If any parameters are configured for the provider state, they will be passed in the "params" attribute.

The provider state callback can return a map (JSON object) of values that can then be used by things like the Provider State Generator to inject values. The returned map of values will fall back to the provider state parameters.

-s, --state-change-url <state-change-url>

This sets the absolute URL that the POST requests will be made to before each actual request. If this value is not set, the state change request will not be made.

--state-change-as-query

By default, the state for the state change request will be sent as a JSON document in the body of the request. This option forces it to be sent as query parameters instead.

--state-change-teardown

This option will cause the verifier to also make a tear down request after the main request is made. It will receive a field in the body or a query parameter named action with the value teardown.

--consumer-version-selectors

Accepts a set of Consumer Version Selectors encoded as JSON.

An example of a well-formed argument value might be:

--consumer-version-selectors '{"branch": "master"}'

Example run

This will verify all the pacts for the happy_provider found in the pact broker (running on localhost) against the provider running on localhost port 5050. Only the pacts for the consumers Consumer and Consumer2 will be verified.

$ pact_verifier_cli -b http://localhost -n 'happy_provider' -p 5050 --filter-consumer Consumer --filter-consumer Consumer2

There were 8 pact failures

Verifying message pacts

Message pacts can be verified, the messages just need to be fetched from an HTTP endpoint. The verifier will send a POST request to the configured provider and expect the message payload in the response. The POST request will include the description and any provider states configured in the Pact file for the message, formatted as JSON.

Example POST request:

{
    "description": "Test Message",
    "providerStates":[ {"name": "message exists"} ]
}

Verifying metadata

Message metadata can be included as base64 encoded key/value pairs in the response, packed into the Pact-Message-Metadata HTTP header, and will be compared against any expected metadata in the pact file.

The values may contain any valid JSON.

For example, given this metadata:

{
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
  "topic": "baz",
  "number": 27,
  "complex": {
    "foo": "bar"
  }
}

we would encode it into a base64 string, giving us ewogICJDb250ZW50LVR5cGUiOiAiYXBwbGljYXRpb24vanNvbiIsCiAgInRvcGljIjogImJheiIsCiAgIm51bWJlciI6IDI3LAogICJjb21wbGV4IjogewogICAgImZvbyI6ICJiYXIiCiAgfQp9Cg==.

TLS and Certificate Management

Pact uses the rustls-native-certs crate, which will respect the platform's native certificate store when operating as a TLS client:

This is supported on Windows, macOS and Linux:

  • On Windows, certificates are loaded from the system certificate store. The schannel crate is used to access the Windows certificate store APIs.
  • On macOS, certificates are loaded from the keychain. The user, admin and system trust settings are merged together as documented by Apple. The security-framework crate is used to access the keystore APIs.
  • On Linux and other UNIX-like operating systems, the openssl-probe crate is used to discover the filename of the system CA bundle.

On Linux the standard OpenSSL environment variables SSL_CERT_FILE and SSL_CERT_DIR will also be respected.

Verifying V4 Pact files

Pact files that require plugins

Pact files that require plugins can be verified with version 0.9.0-beta.0+. For details on how plugins work, see the Pact plugin project.

Each required plugin is defined in the plugins section in the Pact metadata in the Pact file. The plugins will be loaded from the plugin directory. By default, this is ~/.pact/plugins or the value of the PACT_PLUGIN_DIR environment variable. Each plugin required by the Pact file must be installed there. You will need to follow the installation instructions for each plugin, but the default is to unpack the plugin into a sub-directory <plugin-name>-<plugin-version> (i.e., for the Protobuf plugin 0.0.0 it will be protobuf-0.0.0). The plugin manifest file must be present for the plugin to be able to be loaded.

Verifying both HTTP and message interactions

V4 Pact files can support both HTTP and message-based interactions in the same file. In this case, the be able to handle the verification for both types of interactions you need to use the --transports <transports> option. This will allow configuring different ports to send the different requests to.

For example, --transports http:8080 message:8081 will send HTTP requests to port 8080 and message requests to port 8081.
