Microsoft has announced the release of Dev Proxy v0.25, featuring enhancements in configuration management, plugin support, and overall usability. The update features an automatic shut down function, a new command for creating a configuration file, enhanced discoverability of plugin options, more intelligent management of –urls-to-watch, and support for JSON schema in plugin configurations.

The `timeout` option enables users to determine the duration for which Dev Proxy will operate when inactive before it ceases automatically. A new command for configuration enables users to efficiently generate a new configuration file within the current directory. The –urls-to-watch argument enables the overriding of URLs defined in the configuration file when utilizing the MockResponsePlugin. The default errors file has been revised to incorporate this change.




Multiple significant changes have been implemented, such as enhanced rate configuration for error simulation, relocating the `rate` setting to designated plugins, renaming `preset get` to `config get`, and transitioning `config` to `config open`. JSON schemas for plugin configurations have been introduced to enhance IntelliSense and provide real-time feedback. The section for plugin configuration has been updated to prevent naming conflicts and ensure consistency in naming conventions.

Recent updates include various bug fixes and enhancements. Notably, an issue with GraphMinimalPermissionsPlugin has been addressed, along with a bug that prevented watchProcessNames from being set from the config file due to unexpected empty collections overwriting user-defined values. Additionally, missing RC schema properties have been added to include languageModel and filterByHeaders. The default language model has also been updated to Llama 3.2 to enhance the generation of operation IDs and descriptions when utilizing Dev Proxy for OpenAPI specifications.
