# Mocking Requests With Partial URIs Using Regex
|
|
|
|
Generally when mocking out requests with the
|
|
[webmock](https://github.com/bblimke/webmock) gem, we specify full request
|
|
URIs like so:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
stub_request(:post, 'http://localhost:4000/api/posts')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
We may not want to specify the entire URI though. For instance, the host may
|
|
change or be configurable. The `stub_request` method allows us to use regex.
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
stub_request(:post, %r|/api/posts|)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Using [the `%r` regex literal
|
|
syntax](https://ruby-doc.org/core-2.2.0/Regexp.html), we are able to avoid
|
|
escaping all of the `/` characters in our URI.
