Hello, I have a problem with the regexExtract helper. I already wrote a test inside the sourcecode, but that succeeds. Hopefully one can help me. I have this mapping:

{
      "request": {
        "method": "GET",
        "urlPath": "/api/search",
        "queryParameters": {
          "query": {
            "matches": "source=(.*?)\\^target=(.*?)\\^status=1"
          }
        }
      },
      "response": {
        "status": 200,
        "headers": {
          "Content-Type": "application/json"
        },
        "jsonBody": {
          "result": [
            {
              "id": "{{ regexExtract request.query.query '=(.*?)\\^' 'ids' }}{{ids.0}}-{{ids.1}}"
            }
          ]
        }
      }

This test runs successfully:

@Test
  public void canExtractSingleRegexMatchWithCircumflex() {
    final ResponseDefinition responseDefinition =
            transform(
                    transformer,
                    mockRequest().url("/api/?q=filter%3Done%5Efilter%3Dtwo%5Esort%3Ddesc"),
                    aResponse()
                            .withBody("{\"test\": \"{{regexExtract request.query.q 'filter=(.*?)\\^' 'parts'}}{{#each parts}}{{this}} {{/each}}\"}"));

    assertThat(responseDefinition.getBody(), is("{\"test\": \"one two \"}"));
  }

But when I send a request against wiremock I get:

[ERROR: Nothing matched =(.*?)\\^]-

I deploy wiremock inside a kubernetes cluster.

What request are you sending to the

/api/search

stub ?

the request is:

/api/search?query=source%3D23456789987654322345678998765432%5Etarget%3D98765432234567899876543223456789%5Estatus%3D1

the issue is the use of the jsonBody field. response templating and the jsonBody field don't play nice when escaping characters due to how the json is serialised during templating. replacing the entire

"jsonBody"

field with a

"body"

field should fix it.

"body" : "{\"result\": [{\"id\": \"{{ regexExtract request.query.query '=(.*?)\\^' 'ids' }}{{ids.0}}-{{ids.1}}\"}]}"

Thanks @Rafe Arnold that worked 👍
