How do I verify pacts against an API that requires an auth token?

问题

I'm using the Pact gem (and loving it!) for my contract test suite. The API service I'm testing requires an authorization token for all requests.

I know how to generate an API token for my user, but I don't know where to place the token in the Pact workflow. I searched the Pact documentation and repo for examples but didn't have any luck.

I tried sending a POST in the consumer specs to generate a token, but the Pact mock server doesn't know what to do with the request and errors out (as I would expect).

I found this example and it seems promising, particularly the ability to assign predefined headers to all requests with a requestFilter and the addHeader method.

How can I use such a request filter with the Pact gem?

If that's not a current feature, what alternatives do I have?

UPDATE:

J_A_X's answer works great for creating the pacts with the mock server but it doesn't satisfy the API service provider's expectation of a valid auth token. More specifically, I need to dynamically insert valid auth tokens into the pacts upon running pact:verify. So, one step closer but still need to figure out the latter part.

Matthew's answer contains hints for what appear to be two possible solutions for the latter part (pact:verify). I hesitate to introduce another dependency so I'd love to get the ProxyApp class example working. I don't understand what exactly I'd pass into ProxyApp.new() though. Suggestions?

You actually don't have to use a real token for each pact interaction unless you really want/need to.

Normally for that kind of stuff, I just create a regex to be used on the header to validate certain rules while keeping it 'open'. In my node project (which uses the Ruby binary in the back), I created these 2 utilities functions to create objects with a pattern and another for a object minimum equal:

function term(matcher, generate) {
    if ((typeof matcher === 'undefined') || (typeof generate === 'undefined')) {
      throw 'Matcher and Generate arguments must be specified to use Term';
    }
    return {
      "json_class": "Pact::Term",
      "data": {
        "generate": generate,
        "matcher": {
          "json_class": "Regexp",
          "o": 0,
          "s": matcher
        }
      }
    };
  }

  function somethingLike(value) {
    return {
      "json_class": "Pact::SomethingLike",
      "contents": value
    };
  }

You can then use it in your DSL definition like so:

mockService
      .given('a form')
      .uponReceiving('a GET request with a valid auth')
      .withRequest('get', '/', term('^Bearer (?!null$).+$', 'Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiYWRtaW4iOnRydWV9.TJVA95OrM7E2cBab30RMHrHDcEfxjoYZgeFONFh7HgQ'))
      .willRespondWith({
        status: 200,
        headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json;charset=utf-8'},
        body: {worked:true}
      });

The 'term' utility has a regex as the first parameter and then an example (that should match the first) of what to use during the test.

I know that this needs to be expanded better within Pact itself to make it simpler to use. I hope this helps.

The Ruby implementation of Pact doesn't support this directly as per the JVM implementation.

If you're using the Pact Provider Proxy gem, you could take a look at some of the options discussed at https://github.com/realestate-com-au/pact/issues/49#issuecomment-65346357 and https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/pact-support/tSyKZMxsECk.

An example might look something like:

class ProxyApp

  def initialize real_app
    @real_app = real_app
  end

  def call env
    @real_app.call(env.merge('HTTP_AUTHORIZATION' => '12345'))
  end
end

Pact.service_provider "Some Provider" do
  app do
    ProxyApp.new(RealApp)
  end

  honours_pact_with "Some Consumer" do
    #...
  end
end
