# Sendchamp Local simulator
[](#contributors-)
Run a sendchamp simulator locally, to test your apps using sendchamp API without having to spend a dime, you can also write your unit tests with this tool.

## Setup
**CLI Tool**
Make sure you already have NodeJS + NPM installed. To run `sendchamp-simulator`, it's as simple as doing an `npx` which means running the latest version available on npmjs.com.```bash
npx sendchamp-simulator --phone=2349153207998
```As seen in the above command, you need to specify a number for the simulator to receive text messages on. That doesn't mean you cannot run multiple simulators with different numbers. Of course you can !
```bash
[5/27/2022, 11:59:40 PM] Simulator started on http://localhost:2920/?phone=2349153207998
```☝️ You'll see a similar url printed on your console after running the command from before.
So you have another number right ? Create a new browser tab copy and paste this url there, and you get a simulator for this number. Create a new tab again 🙃. Paste the url again, but this time replace the phone number in the url.
For example: You want to run a simulator for both numbers **2348123775374** and **2349153207998**.
After starting the simulator: Go to your browser and open two tabs with the urls:- http://localhost:2920/?phone=2348123775374
- http://localhost:2920/?phone=2349153207998👏 Yes !. You now have two simulators ready to receive messages.

You see that green dot at the top right edge of the simulator ? If it's not green means your simulator isn't connected. Either you need to reload the page or restart your simulator ! Please don't use old browsers like Internet Explorer for this simulator or I would come for you 😠.
## Lets gooo
Now that we have the simulator setup, It's time for us to start developing our app using the sendchamp api. I said sendchamp api right 🤔. Not really. This simulator is more like a proxy to the sendchamp API and intercepts endpoints like the /sms/send, /verification/create , etc. So you won't have to spend a dime when testing your sendchamp integrated apps.
Ideally you would have a constant holding the sendchamp api base url before making api calls in your app. So you can dynamically change this url based on your app environment. Let's see what I am talking about below.
## Examples
Pardon me 🙏, I only know how to write nodejs and golang fluently.
**Nodejs with axios**
```javascript
// use simulator url if in dev mode and live url in production
const axios = require("axios");const BASE_URL =
process.env.NODE_ENV === "development"
? "http://localhost:2920"
: "https://api.sendchamp.com";// Now lets start attacking the endpoints.
// Lets send a text message to one of our simulators phone number.let options = {
to: "2349153207998",
message: "Pinging my simulator",
sender_name: "Sendchamp",
route: "dnd",
};axios
.post("/api/v1/sms/send", options, {
baseURL: BASE_URL,
headers: {
// this doesn't neccessarily need to be a valid key.. anything works 😜. but if you want to use other endpoints like /wallet/wallet_balance you need to put a valid sendchamp public key, since those endpoints aren't intercepted and they go directly to api.sendchamp.com.
Authorization: "Bearer ",
Accept: "application/json",
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
})
.then((response) => {
// exactly as sendchamp would respond you 😉
console.log(response);
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error(error);
});
```Now, let's check the simulator !.

And also in the console, we get the regular sendchamp response.

**Nodejs with [sendchamp-sdk](https://github.com/fuadop/sendchamp-sdk)**
```javascript
const Sendchamp = require("sendchamp-sdk");const sendchamp = new Sendchamp({
publicKey: "sk_test_$lkdl$lksd...",
mode: "local-simulator",
});const sms = sendchamp.SMS;
const options = {
sender_name: "sendchamp.sdk",
to: "2349153207998",
message: "test from sendchamp-sdk",
route: "dnd",
};sms
.send(options)
.then((res) => {
console.log(res);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.log(err);
});
```
**Golang with [sendchamp go sdk](https://github.com/fuadop/sendchamp)**
```go
package mainimport (
"fmt"
"log""github.com/fuadop/sendchamp"
)var publicKey string = "your-public-key"
var mode string = sendchamp.ModeLocalSimulator
func main() {
client := sendchamp.NewClient(publicKey, mode)
sender := "sendchamp"
to := []string{"2349153207998"}
message := "my sms message"
route := sendchamp.RouteInternationalres, err := client.NewSms().Send(sender, to, message, route)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}fmt.Println(res)
}
```
**Golang with net/http**
```go
package mainimport (
"bytes"
"encoding/json"
"fmt"
"io/ioutil"
"log"
"net/http"
"os"
)func main() {
url := "https://api.sendchamp.com/api/v1/sms/send"
if env := os.Getenv("GO_ENV"); env == "development" {
url = "http://localhost:2920/api/v1/sms/send"
}type SendSMSPayload struct {
To []string `json:"to"`
Message string `json:"message"`
SenderName string `json:"sender_name"`
Route string `json:"route"`
}sp := SendSMSPayload{
To: []string{"2349153207998"},
Message: "Lorem ipsum d, no lele",
SenderName: "Dash",
Route: "non_dnd",
}j, _ := json.Marshal(sp)
payload := bytes.NewReader(j)req, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", url, payload)
req.Header.Add("Accept", "application/json")
req.Header.Add("Content-Type", "application/json")
req.Header.Add("Authorization", "Bearer ACCESS_KEY")res, e := http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
if e != nil {
log.Fatal(e)
}defer res.Body.Close()
body, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(res.Body)fmt.Println(res)
fmt.Println(string(body))
}
```
## Notes
The following endpoints communicate with the simulator:
- "/api/v1/sms/send"
- "/api/v1/verification/create"Yes, sms OTPs would get received by the emulator and you can use the "/api/v1/verification/confirm" endpoint to verify it.
If the channel set in the "/api/v1/verification/create" body is not "sms" the request is processed by "api.sendchamp.com".
All other endpoints not listed above are all processed by "api.sendchamp.com". Your local simulator is a proxy ✅.
## Timeline
Currently the simulator works for all sms based requests. I am looking into also intercept the voice based requests to the simulator, if that would be necessary.
If you find any bugs or have a feature request, please file an issue on the [issue tracker](https://github.com/fuadop/sendchamp-simulator/issues), I'll be happy to help!.## Contributing
