Hey all, I'm trying to setup a WireMock mapping for returning a png image like following:

{
  "request": {
    "method": "GET",
    "urlPath": "/test/img"
  },
  "response": {
    "status": 200,
    "bodyFileName": "wiremock.png"
  },
  "metadata": {
    "name": "file-stub"
  }
}

And I have the

wiremock.png

file in

__files

folder. Although its not working when I request

<http://localhost:8080/test/img>

in my browser. Any ideias? I'm using latest wiremock docker image Thanks in advance ✌️

I am a little puzzled by this because I have just tried this myself and it works fine. How are you starting up the container and are there any error messages?

It’s usually a good idea to set a content type header of e.g.

image/png

in a case like this, otherwise the browser won’t realise it’s an image

I thought the same. Firefox seems to display the image regardless but not sure about other browsers

Hey literally this

Not sure why it isn't working for you to be honest. Could you try adding in the content type header and remove the

--global-response-templating

startup parameter. Depending on the image you are using it could be trying to interpret it as a handlebars template

Yeah, don’t use

--global-response-templating

with images as it’ll try to resolve the image content as if it’s a template.

Ya

Nice !!

can I disable it for specific stubs?

You can enable it for specific stubs

Ya that I know 😛

Add

"transformers": ["response-template"]

to your stub response

Thanks for the help guys! 💪

Actually, there is a way to specifically disable body templating for specific stubs

No worries. Glad we got to the bottom of it

Does setting

"transformers": []

work?

You might need to check the docs for that as I can’t remember the syntax and I’m on a train with terrible wifi at the moment

Found it

Yep, that’s the one

Thanks again!
