assert-browserify
Advanced tools
The
assertmodule from Node.js, for the browser.
With browserify, simply require('assert') or use the assert global and you will get this module.
The goal is to provide an API that is as functionally identical to the Node.js assert API as possible. Read the official docs for API documentation.
To use this module directly (without browserify), install it as a dependency:
npm install assert
The goal is to provide an API that is as functionally identical to the Node.js assert API as possible. Read the official docs for API documentation.
assertDue to differences between browsers, some error properties such as message and stack will be inconsistent. However the assertion behaviour is as close as possible to Node.js and the same error code will always be used.
To contribute, work on the source files. Then build and run the tests against the built files. Be careful to not introduce syntax that will be transpiled down to unsupported syntax. For example, for...of loops will be transpiled to use Symbol.iterator which is unavailable in IE.
npm run buildBuilds the project into the build dir.
npm run devWatches source files for changes and rebuilds them into the build dir.
npm run testBuilds the source files into the build dir and then runs the tests against the built project.
npm run test:nobuildRuns the tests against the built project without rebuilding first.
This is useful if you're debugging in the transpiled code and want to re-run the tests without overwriting any changes you may have made.
npm run test:sourceRuns the tests against the unbuilt source files.
This will only work on modern Node.js versions.
npm run test:browsersRun browser tests against the all targets in the cloud.
Requires airtap credentials to be configured on your machine.
npm run test:browsers:localRun a local browser test server. No airtap configuration required.
When paired with npm run dev any changes you make to the source files will be automatically transpiled and served on the next request to the test server.
