# Mock Driver
This repo includes a mock task driver in the [`drivers/mock`][] package that
implements a minimal task driver interface for development work. This driver is
loaded as the other [built-in drivers][] are, but only when Nomad is [not
compiled with the release tag][].
## Task Configuration
```hcl
task "mocktask" {
driver = "mock_driver"
config {
run_for = "10s"
exit_code = 7
exit_err_msg = "the application crashed"
}
}
```
The `mock_driver` driver supports the following configuration in the job spec:
- `run_for` `(duration: "0s")` - The duration for which the fake task runs
for. After this period the driver responds indicating the task has terminated.
- `signal_error` `(string: "")` - The error message the task returns if signalled.
- `stderr_repeat_duration` `(duration: "0s")` - The duration between repeated stderr outputs.
- `stderr_repeat` `(number: 0)` - The number of times the `stderr_string` will be written.
- `stderr_string` `(string: "")` - The string that the task writes to stderr.
- `stdout_repeat_duration` `(string: "")` - The duration between repeated stdout outputs.
- `stdout_repeat` `(number: 0)` - The number of times the `stdout_string` will be written.
- `stdout_string` `(string: "")` - The string that the task writes to stdout.
The driver has configurable startup and shutdown for the tasks:
- `exit_code` `(number: 0)` - The exit code the driver should return for the exiting task.
- `exit_err_msg` `(string: "")` - The error message the task returns while exiting.
- `exit_signal` `(number: 0)` - The signal with which the driver indicates the
task has been killed.
- `kill_after` `(duration: "0s")` - Duration after which the driver indicates
the task has exited with `SIGINT`.
- `plugin_exit_after` `(string: "")` - Duration after which the driver indicates
the plugin exited via the `WaitTask` call.
- `start_block_for` `(duration: "0s")` - Duration to block before returning when started.
- `start_error_recoverable` `(bool: false)` - Marks whether the error returned
when starting the driver is recoverable.
- `start_error` `(string: "")` - The error that is returned when starting the driver.
The driver can present information to the client about the task as though it had networking:
- `driver_advertise` `(bool: false)` - Returned as `DriverNetwork.AutoAdvertise` from `Start()`
- `driver_ip` `(string: "")` - The address returned as the `DriverNetwork.IP` from `Start()`
- `driver_port_map` `(string: "")` - Parse a label:number pair and return it as
`DriverNetwork.PortMap` from `Start()`.
## Plugin Options
```hcl
plugin "mock_driver" {
fs_isolation = "none"
shutdown_periodic_after = false
shutdown_periodic_duration = 0
}
```
- `fs_isolation` `(string: "none")` - The type of file system isolation to
report to the client. Must be one of `"none"`, `"chroot"`, or `"image"`.
- `shutdown_periodic_after` `(bool: false)` - A toggle that can be used during
tests to "stop" a previously-functioning driver, allowing for testing of
periodic drivers and fingerprinters.
- `shutdown_periodic_duration` `(number: 0)` - The duration after which to stop
a previously-functioning driver, in seconds.
## Example
An example job that could be used for testing task `kill_timeout`:
```
job "mock" {
group "group" {
task "task" {
driver = "mock_driver"
kill_timeout = "5s"
config {
exit_code = 0
exit_err_msg = "error on exit"
exit_signal = 9
kill_after = "3s"
run_for = "30s"
signal_error = "got signal"
start_block_for = "1s"
stdout_repeat = 1
stdout_repeat_duration = "10s"
stdout_string = "hello, world!\n"
}
resources {
cpu = 128
memory = 128
}
}
}
}
```
This results in the following allocation events:
