tern-jasmine

tern-jasmine

tern-jasmine is a plugin which adds support for Jasmine to the JavaScript code intelligence system Tern.

Installation

tern-jasmine works with the NodeJS Tern Server, and within a browser.

Short version

After installing Tern according the setup instructions of your desired editor plugin, go to the place where the Tern package was installed (or the Tern repo was cloned) and run

$ npm install tern-jasmine

Or, if you're not sure where Tern was installed, you can try

$ npm install -g tern-jasmine

Long version

See INSTALL.md for instructions tailored to each editor.

Configuration

In order for Tern to load the tern-jasmine plugin once it is installed, you must include jasmine in the plugins section of your Tern configuration file. The configuration file can be either a file named .tern-project in your project's root directory, or .tern-config in your home directory.

Here is a minimal example .tern-project configuration file:

{
  "ecmaVersion": 5,
  "libs": ["browser"],
  "plugins": {
    "jasmine": {}
  }
}

"Project directory" and .tern-project vs .tern-config

Tern looks for .tern-project first, walking up the directory tree, and uses its location as the "project directory". If no .tern-project is found, your .tern-config is loaded instead, and the working directory of the Tern server process is used as the "project directory".
