Quick Reference

Making API Calls

using CodeCarnage.ApiMockingToolkit;

// GET
var response = await ApiClient.Get("https://api.example.com/data");

// POST
var response = await ApiClient.Post("https://api.example.com/data", "{\"key\":\"value\"}");

// PUT
var response = await ApiClient.Put("https://api.example.com/data/123", "{\"key\":\"updated\"}");

// PATCH
var response = await ApiClient.Patch("https://api.example.com/data/123", "{\"key\":\"patched\"}");

// DELETE
var response = await ApiClient.Delete("https://api.example.com/data/123");

All methods accept optional headers and CancellationToken:

var headers = new Dictionary<string, string> {
{ "Authorization", "Bearer {{token}}" }
};
var cts = new CancellationTokenSource();

var response = await ApiClient.Get(
"https://api.example.com/me",
headers,
cts.Token
);

Handling Responses

if (response.Success) {
// Success - Status 200-299
var data = JsonUtility.FromJson<MyData>(response.Body);
Debug.Log($"Data: {data}");
} else {
// Error - Status >= 400 (or transport failure)
Debug.LogError($"Error {response.StatusCode}: {response.Body}");
}

Offline Mode

OfflineMode is a serialized field on the ApiGlobalConfig ScriptableObject. Toggle it from the API Mocking Toolkit window or the Inspector:

// Read current state at runtime
var config = Resources.Load<ApiGlobalConfig>("ApiGlobalConfig");
if (config.OfflineMode) {
Debug.Log("Running in offline mode");
}

The runtime API is read-only. To change the value from code (Editor only), use SerializedObject / EditorUtility.SetDirty on the asset; do not assign directly to the property.

Environments

// Get environment manager
var envManager = EnvironmentManager.Instance;

// Switch active environment
envManager.ActiveEnvironment = devEnvironment;

// Resolve a variable (active env first, then global)
string baseUrl = envManager.ResolveVariable("baseUrl");

Sessions

// Session persistence is controlled by ApiGlobalConfig (set via the Editor UI)
var config = Resources.Load<ApiGlobalConfig>("ApiGlobalConfig");
bool persistenceOn = config.EnableSessionPersistence;

// Access session manager (Editor-only)
#if UNITY_EDITOR
var sessionManager = SessionManager.Instance;
var session = sessionManager.CurrentSession;
sessionManager.EndCurrentSession();
#endif

ApiClient

Static entry point. Editor: ApiInterceptor routes requests. Builds: UnityWebRequest to real backend.

Methods

Get / Post / Put / Patch / Delete

public static Task<ApiResponse> Get(string url, Dictionary<string, string> headers = null, CancellationToken ct = default)
public static Task<ApiResponse> Post(string url, string body, Dictionary<string, string> headers = null, CancellationToken ct = default)
public static Task<ApiResponse> Put(string url, string body, Dictionary<string, string> headers = null, CancellationToken ct = default)
public static Task<ApiResponse> Patch(string url, string body, Dictionary<string, string> headers = null, CancellationToken ct = default)
public static Task<ApiResponse> Delete(string url, Dictionary<string, string> headers = null, CancellationToken ct = default)
// Examples
var response = await ApiClient.Get("https://api.example.com/users/123");

var json = JsonUtility.ToJson(new LoginRequest { username = "user", password = "pass" });
var response = await ApiClient.Post("https://api.example.com/login", json);

var response = await ApiClient.Delete("https://api.example.com/player/items/456");

ApiResponse

public class ApiResponse
{
public bool Success { get; }
public int StatusCode { get; }
public string Body { get; }
public IReadOnlyDictionary<string, string> Headers { get; }
public long Size { get; } // bytes
}

Example Usage:

var response = await ApiClient.Get("/api/data");

Debug.Log($"Success: {response.Success}");
Debug.Log($"Status: {response.StatusCode}");
Debug.Log($"Body: {response.Body}");
Debug.Log($"Size: {response.Size} bytes");

if (response.Headers != null && response.Headers.TryGetValue("Content-Type", out var ct)) {
Debug.Log($"Content-Type: {ct}");
}

Latency simulated by mock responses is applied as an await Task.Delay inside the interceptor — it is not a field on the response object.


ApiGlobalConfig

ScriptableObject from Resources/ApiGlobalConfig. Read-only at runtime. Edit via Toolkit window or Inspector.

bool OfflineMode { get; } // Mock everything, even unconfigured
bool Enabled { get; } // Master switch
bool EnableSessionPersistence { get; } // Save sessions to disk
string ActiveCollectionName { get; set; } // Active collection

Read at runtime:

var config = Resources.Load<ApiGlobalConfig>("ApiGlobalConfig");
if (config.Enabled && config.OfflineMode) Debug.Log("Toolkit active, offline mode");

Edit from Editor script:

#if UNITY_EDITOR
var config = Resources.Load<ApiGlobalConfig>("ApiGlobalConfig");
var so = new UnityEditor.SerializedObject(config);
so.FindProperty("_offlineMode").boolValue = true;
so.ApplyModifiedProperties();
UnityEditor.EditorUtility.SetDirty(config);
UnityEditor.AssetDatabase.SaveAssets();
#endif

ApiEndpoint

Serializable endpoint model in ApiEndpointCollection. Edit via Toolkit window; rarely constructed by game code.

string Id { get; set; } // Stable GUID (survives URL/method edits)
string Name { get; set; } // Friendly name
string Url { get; set; } // URL or template ({{baseUrl}}/users)
string Method { get; set; } // GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, HEAD
MatchType MatchType { get; set; } // Exact | Contains

bool UseMock { get; set; } // Per-endpoint toggle
bool SimulateError { get; set; } // false → Responses[]; true → ErrorResponses[]

string Headers { get; set; } // Raw "Key: Value" per line
string RequestBody { get; set; } // JSON body for POST/PUT/PATCH

List<MockFlowNode> Responses { get; } // Success responses
List<MockFlowNode> ErrorResponses { get; } // Error responses

ResponseStrategy ResponseStrategy { get; set; }
bool LoopResponses { get; set; }
int CurrentResponseIndex { get; set; } // Sequential/RoundRobin cursor

ResponseStrategy ErrorResponseStrategy { get; set; }
bool ErrorLoopResponses { get; set; }
int CurrentErrorResponseIndex { get; set; } // Error cursor

Routing: Enabled OFF → real. OfflineMode ON → mock all. UseMock ON → mock. Else → real. SimulateError picks between Responses[] and ErrorResponses[] via strategy.

Example

#if UNITY_EDITOR
var collection = Resources.Load<ApiEndpointCollection>("ApiEndpointCollection");
var ep = collection.Endpoints.First(e => e.Name == "Get Profile");

ep.UseMock = true; // Route this endpoint to mocks
ep.SimulateError = false; // Serve from Responses[]
ep.ResponseStrategy = ResponseStrategy.Sequential;
ep.LoopResponses = true;

UnityEditor.EditorUtility.SetDirty(collection);
UnityEditor.AssetDatabase.SaveAssets();
#endif

Id is preserved across URL/method edits and across OpenAPI import/export round-trips (stored as x-amt-id in the exported spec). Don't generate IDs yourself; let the toolkit assign them.


EnvironmentManager

Persistent singleton. Stores environments and globals in Application.persistentDataPath/ApiMockingToolkit/Environments/.

Properties:

IReadOnlyList<ApiEnvironment> Environments { get; }
ApiEnvironment ActiveEnvironment { get; set; } // Ignored if not registered
string BuildEnvironmentId { get; set; } // Env compiled into builds
ApiEnvironment BuildEnvironment { get; }
IReadOnlyDictionary<string, string> GlobalVariables { get; }

Methods:

void AddEnvironment(ApiEnvironment env);
bool RemoveEnvironment(ApiEnvironment env); // False if null or only one left
void SetGlobalVariable(string key, string value);
bool RemoveGlobalVariable(string key);
string ResolveVariable(string key); // Active env first, then globals
ApiRequest InterpolateRequest(ApiRequest req); // Strict; throws on unresolved
void SaveEnvironments();

ApiEnvironment:

public class ApiEnvironment {
public string Id { get; } // GUID
public string Name { get; set; }
public string BaseUrl { get; set; }
public Dictionary<string, string> Variables { get; set; }

public void SetVariable(string key, string value);
public string GetVariable(string key);
public bool RemoveVariable(string key);
public bool HasVariable(string key);
public int VariableCount { get; }
public ApiEnvironment Clone();
}

Example:

var envManager = EnvironmentManager.Instance;
var devEnv = new ApiEnvironment("Development", "http://localhost:3000");
devEnv.SetVariable("apiKey", "dev-key-123");
envManager.AddEnvironment(devEnv);
envManager.ActiveEnvironment = devEnv;
string url = envManager.ResolveVariable("baseUrl") + "/api/data";

Build enforcement: BuildPreprocessor checks OfflineMode OFF, BuildEnvironmentId registered, active env matches build env. Play Mode has no restrictions. Violations fail build with BuildFailedException.


SessionManager

Editor-only. Persists sessions in Application.persistentDataPath/ApiMockingToolkitSessions/.

Properties:

Session CurrentSession { get; }
static event Action OnSessionChanged; // Fires on start/end/delete

Methods:

void StartNewSession();
void EndCurrentSession(); // Also saves to disk
void AddLogToCurrentSession(LogEntry log);
void SaveSession(Session session);
List<Session> LoadAllSessions();
Session LoadSession(string sessionId); // By ID, not file path
void DeleteSession(string sessionId);
void DeleteAllSessions();
int GetSavedSessionCount();
string GetSessionFolderPath();

Example:

#if UNITY_EDITOR
var sessionManager = SessionManager.Instance;
sessionManager.StartNewSession();
// ... play, make API calls ...
sessionManager.EndCurrentSession(); // Auto-saves
var session = sessionManager.LoadSession("a1b2c3d4-...");
Debug.Log($"Session: {session.TotalRequests} requests, {session.GetDurationSeconds()}s duration");
#endif

Gated by EnableSessionPersistence. Max 1,000 sessions on disk; older auto-pruned.


Configuration

ResponseStrategy:

Sequential // 1 → 2 → 3 → 1 (loops if LoopResponses)
RoundRobin // Cycle through evenly, forever
Random // Uniform random per call

MatchType:

Exact // request.url == endpoint.url
Contains // request.url.Contains(endpoint.url)

HTTP Methods (Constants.HttpMethods):

Get // "GET"
Post // "POST"
Put // "PUT"
Patch // "PATCH"
Delete // "DELETE"
Head // "HEAD"

Game code calls ApiClient methods directly; no need to specify method strings.


Troubleshooting

Endpoints not matched: Enabled? Offline Mode set? URL matches (case-sensitive)? MatchType (Exact vs Contains)? Correct collection? HTTP method match? UseMock ON (if Offline Mode OFF)?

Variables not replaced: Exists in active env/global? Syntax {{variableName}}? Typos? Active env set? Throws MissingEnvironmentVariableException with available vars.

Sessions not saving: EnableSessionPersistence true? Running in Editor (sessions Editor-only)? EndCurrentSession() called or exited Play Mode? Check Console for [SessionManager] errors.

Demo Scene broken: Re-import Samples from Package Manager. Select "Demo Scene Collection". Check Console.

Build errors: OfflineMode ON (disable). No build environment set or active env mismatch. Scripting backend/API compatibility level for async/await.

Performance: Limit response body size. Reduce latency. Disable session persistence if not needed.
