Simulators

A Simulator is an immutable implementation of a system API. Build one from an OpenAPI or WSDL document, or select one from the shared catalog.

Build lifecycle

A new build starts in building and ends in ready or failed. Only a ready Simulator can start a Simulation.

continuous simulator build \
  --spec ./openapi.yaml \
  --name billing \
  --tag latest

The command waits for the terminal build state by default. Use --no-wait when another process will watch the build.

Identity and tags

Each successful build has an immutable smr_ ID. A name:tag reference is a movable pointer to a ready build. Use IDs to pin one revision and tags to select a maintained revision.

continuous simulator get billing:latest
continuous simulator history billing:latest
continuous simulator openapi billing:latest

Use the API reference for exact Simulator routes and schemas.
