A set of Javascript utilities for building Node and browser apps.
The idea was to take all those small thing I'm always rewriting on every project and move them to a single package so I can not only stop copying & pasting them all over the place but also maintain them all together.
There are two rules I followed when I had to decide what to put and what to keep somewhere else:
| - | - |
|---|---|
| Package | wootils |
| Description | A set of Javascript utilities for building Node and browser apps. |
| Node Version | >= v8.0.0 |
The package is divided on 3 folders:
node: Utilities that are only compatible with Node.shared: Utilities that can work on both browser and Node.browser: Utilities that can only be used while on a browser.Two notes about the Node utilities:
This is a service to manage applications configurations. It takes care of loading, activating, switching and merging configuration files.

A really small service to centralize the place where you read environment variables and check if you are running on development or production.

Listens for uncaught exceptions and unhandled promises rejections, and logs them out with full detail.
The name leaves nothing to the imagination. As you may have guessed, this is service for logging messages into the console.
A tiny function that reads the contents of the app package.json. This is really useful on an Jimple application where you can register it, because the returned value gets cached and it's available as a service.
An easy way to manage locations and build paths relative to those locations on a Node app.
Is basically require but the path is relative to the project root directory.
A really basic client to work with an API endpoints requests.
Create a deferred promise using the native Promise object.
A small implementation of a pubsub service for handling events on an app.
A small collection of utility methods to work with objects.
An abstract class allows you to build services that relay on browser storage (session/local) and simplifies the way you work it.
Before doing anything, install the repository hooks:
# You can either use npm or yarn, it doesn't matter
yarn run hooks
| Task | Description |
|---|---|
yarn run hooks | Install the GIT repository hooks. |
yarn test | Run the project unit tests. |
yarn run lint | Lint the modified files. |
yarn run lint:full | Lint the project code. |
yarn run docs | Generate the project documentation. |
yarn run todo | List all the pending to-do's. |
I use Jest with Jest-Ex to test the project. The configuration file is on ./.jestrc, the tests and mocks are on ./tests and the script that runs it is on ./utils/scripts/test.
I use ESlint to validate all our JS code. The configuration file for the project code is on ./.eslintrc and for the tests on ./tests/.eslintrc (which inherits from the one on the root), there's also an ./.eslintignore to ignore some files on the process, and the script that runs it is on ./utils/scripts/lint.
I use ESDoc to generate HTML documentation for the project. The configuration file is on ./.esdocrc and the script that runs it is on ./utils/scripts/docs.
I use @todo comments to write all the pending improvements and fixes, and Leasot to generate a report. The script that runs it is on ./utils/scripts/todo.
