proxify-method

proxify-method

Zero dependencies package. Main purpose of this package is to provide integration of the common assertions into class methods without refactoring and updates of the class methods, this package does not affect constructor, getters/setters and does not affect internal logic of the class methods. Package works with async function/Promises, and also sync common code.

Usage

ts example js example

js

// example with node-fetch and chai
const fetch = require('node-fetch');
const {chainProxify} = require('proxify-method');
const {expect} = require('chai');

function assertResponseBody(expectedBodyTextPart, {response}) {
  expect(response).to.include(expectedBodyTextPart)
}

function assertResponseBodyStrictEqual(expectedBody, {response}) {
  expect(response).to.equal(bodyTextPart)
}

class ControllerIterface {
  constructor() {
    // this two assertions will be available for every method in this class
    chainProxify('assertBodyIncludes', assertResponseBody)
      .chainProxify('strictAssertBody', assertResponseBodyStrictEqual)
      .initChainModel(this);
  }

  getDataFromServerController() {
    return fetch('http://someurl.that.returns.some.data')
    .then(result => result.text())
    // this {response: result} object will be second argument of the assert functions
    .then(result => ({response: result}))
  }

  postDataFromServerController() {
    return fetch('http://someurl.that.should_receive.some.data', {method: 'POST', body: 'string data'})
    .then(result => result.text())
    // this {response: result} object will be second argument of the assert functions
    .then(result => ({response: result}))
  }
}


async function test() {
  const controller = new ControllerIterface();

  const expectedGetBodyPart = 'some string';
  const expectedGetBodyFull = 'some string full'
  // can be done like TDD
  const {response: responseTddExample} = await controller.getDataFromServerController();
  expect(responseTddExample).to.include(expectedGetBodyPart);
  expect(responseTddExample).to.equal(expectedGetBodyFull);
  // ... usage of the response
  const resultTdd = responseTddExample;

  // can be done like BDD
  const {response: responseBddExample} = await controller.getDataFromServerController()
    .assertBodyIncludes(expectedGetBodyPart)
    .strictAssertBody(expectedGetBodyFull)
  // ... usage of the response
