It is used in CLI and package-manager contexts as a local binary or service that lets SDKs and integration tests validate request paths and parameters without calling the live Stripe API. ### Project history Stripe's README says the project was first released in 2017 and that its original ambition was broader: returning responses that were realistic as well as type-correct. The same source explains that the scope has since narrowed; stripe-mock is deliberately stateless, hardcoded, and aimed at basic validation rather than full API behavior simulation. The project is generated from Stripe's OpenAPI specification, which keeps the mock aligned with the latest methods, resources, and fields. That makes it part of Stripe's broader API tooling pipeline rather than a hand-maintained fake service. ### Adoption history Stripe documents use of stripe-mock inside server-side SDK test suites such as stripe-ruby and stripe-go. Package availability in the input shows distribution through Homebrew and zypper, while the official README also documents release downloads, Docker usage, and a Homebrew service. ### How it is used Common usage is to start the `stripe-mock` server locally, then run tests or sample requests against its HTTP and HTTPS ports. The README also documents automatic port selection, Unix socket mode, Docker execution, and Homebrew service management. ### Why package nerds care Package maintainers care about stripe-mock because it turns a remote payments API into a reproducible local fixture for SDK testing. It is intentionally not a full emulator, but its OpenAPI-driven route and schema validation make it useful for packaging, CI, and client-library smoke tests. ### Timeline - 2017: Stripe first released stripe-mock. - Current: Stripe documents a narrowed scope focused on stateless basic sanity checks backed by the Stripe OpenAPI specification. ### Related projects - Stripe OpenAPI specification, Stripe server-side SDKs such as stripe-ruby and stripe-go, Docker images, Homebrew services, and playback-testing tools such as VCR are documented adjacent points in the official README. ### Sources - - source_facts.description - source_facts.package-manager ## Security Notes formula declares a Homebrew service. - **Geiger risk:** orange / medium - formula declares a Homebrew service ## Source Database Details - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** stripe-mock - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Other Package-Manager Records - zypper - stripe-mock - 0.186.0-1.6: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: stripe-mock from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/be8d3611d25469107f32075a1697e69ec57a2b850b42348a658cc671ad5ec2b50760d02c3e59524d50da9a11d5be799bdaffba2e166e8ca8858512e3c0bd665d-primary.xml.zst | Mock HTTP server based on the real Stripe API | https://github.com/stripe/stripe-mock ## Related links - [Source-control packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Secret-risk packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/secret-risk-packages/) - Has protected-tool coverage, approval-gate, or non-low Geiger security signals. - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [go](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/go/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [stripe-cli](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/stripe-cli/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: api, cli, developer-tools, payments, stripe. - [curlie](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/curlie/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: api, api-testing, cli, developer-tools. - [http-prompt](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/http-prompt/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: api, api-testing, cli, developer-tools. - [mockserver](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/mockserver/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: api, cli, developer-tools, mock-server. - [xh](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/xh/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: api, api-testing, cli, developer-tools. - [ain](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/ain/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: api, cli, developer-tools. - [algolia](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/algolia/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: api, cli, developer-tools. - [cliproxyapi](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/cliproxyapi/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: api, cli, developer-tools. - [moco](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/moco/) - Local metadata places this package in an adjacent workflow.
