Vrap is a validating REST API proxy. In order to be able to validate rest api calls the proxy consumes RAML 1.0 definition files

To start vrap using docker use the following command

docker run -v<RAML-definition-directory>:/api -p5050:5050 vrapio/vrap /api/api.raml 

Build shadow jar with gradle:

./gradlew shadowJar

Then run built shadow with java:

java -jar build/libs/vrap-all.jar <path-to-raml-file>

./gradlew run -PcliArgs=<path-to-raml-file>

In order to validate incoming requests and responses your application has to be configured to use the vrap api url: http://localhost:5050/api

Vrap includes a small web interface for browsing the API definition.

• API browser http://localhost:5050/api-raml/
  • with resolved includes http://localhost:5050/api-raml/?include
