Local REST server and xhr interceptor

This JavaScript library provides a mock implementation of a REST API server. It replaces the XMLHttpRequest object and basically intercepts all the XHR call from your app.

All the data will be presisted in memory and/or local storage.

Usage

###Start Server

//Create new LocalRESTServer instance
 var localServer = new LocalRESTServer();
//Start interceptor
//NOTE! It will supress all your XHR calls from your app
 localServer.start({
     endpoints: ['https://api.github.com/'], // Specify endpoints, usually domain names
     seedData: [ //Seed data 
         {
             url: 'https://api.github.com/repos',
             data: {
                 "some": "data"
             }
         }
     ]
 });

###Stop Server

localServer.stop();

###Seed data Data can be passed as an object literal or as array of objects

  seedData: [ //Seed data 
         {
             url: 'https://api.github.com/repos',
             data:[ {"some": "data1"}, {"some": "data2"}]
         }
     ]
