04/21/2023, 6:43 AMHi all, I needed help
I wanted to use the stubbed response in the request body for webhook using response templating. Is there any way to do it?
For eg. I generate a random UUID in the stubbed response for the original request and want to use that same UUID in the webhook request body.

04/21/2023, 6:54 AMHi. Response transformer from https://github.com/9cookies/wiremock-extensions, maybe?
I actually used it on the weekend for a similar usecase in my WireMock Testcontainers Module documentation https://github.com/wiremock/wiremock-testcontainers-java
See "Using WireMock extensions" section for the latter

I think I can use the response simulator to get the response param and use it in the webhook request body

04/21/2023, 7:04 AM@Oleg Nenashev Do I need to build a jar and add it to the classpath if I want to use it with Wiremock standalone server?

04/21/2023, 7:07 AMYou can download the jar of the extension from GitHub packages, and then follow the Documentation
Do you run WireMock standalone in Docker? If so, I consider adding the extension manager into the image in the future so that the SDKs are more simple. No commitment/ETA for now

Later I will speak to @Tom about extending the configuration file spec so that it would include maven locations for the extensions and hence the docker builder could download them

04/21/2023, 9:25 AMThank you! Generally I want to add a section to the documentation that would store Short recipes for common use cases, and it would be a nice use case for sure
