Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

@libstack/tester

This module will help you test your @libstack/server API.

Installation

npm install @libstack/tester --save-dev

Usage

You will need to create a file on your test folder.

import { TestHelper } from '@libstack/tester';
import server from '../src/node'; // import the server from your application

export default new TestHelper(server);

Then you can start performing requests on your application on unit tests.

import TestHelper from './TestHelper';

const { http, expect } = TestHelper;

describe('Sample Router', () => {
  it('should return 200 on GET', async () => {
    const response = await http.get('/sample-router');
    expect(response.status).to.be.equal(200);
  });
  
  it('should return 200 on GET with queries', async () => {
    const query = { name: 'sergio' };
    // this request will be /sample-router?name=sergio
    const response = await http.get('/sample-router', { query });
    expect(response.status).to.be.equal(200);
  });
  
  it('should return 200 on POST', async () => {
    const body = { anything: '' };
    const response = await http.post('/sample-router', body);
    expect(response.status).to.be.equal(200);
  });
  
  it('should return 200 on PUT', async () => {
    const body = { anything: '' };
    const response = await http.put('/sample-router', body);
    expect(response.status).to.be.equal(200);
  });
  
  it('should return 200 on DELETE', async () => {
    const response = await http.delete('/sample-router');
    expect(response.status).to.be.equal(200);
  });
});

Using decorators

When we are testing APIs, it's common to create some behaviors on requests, like an authenticated user. There's a method on TestHelper.http that enables this.

So, let's suppose we are trying to create an authenticated request. The user needs to login on the application, pick the JWT bearer token, then use it on all upcoming requests.

import { RequestDecorator, RequestOptions, TestHelper } from '@libstack/tester';
import server from '../src/node'; // import the server from your application

class AuthenticationDecorator implements RequestDecorator {
  private token: string;

  /*
   * Let's store the authentication data on the class
   */
  constructor(private user: string, private pass: string) {}

  /*
   * Now let's create a business logic to perform login and return the JWT bearer
   */
  private async performLogin(): Promise<string> {
    // business logic to perform a login and return the JWT bearer token
    return 'c2VyZ2lvZmlsaG93QGdtYWlsLmNvbQ==';
  }

  /**
   * This function will be called on every request
   */
  async decorateRequest(request: RequestOptions): Promise<RequestOptions> {
    if (!this.token) {
      this.token = await this.performLogin();
    }
    request.headers.Authorization = 'Bearer ' + this.token;

    return request;
  }
}

export const testHelper = new TestHelper(server);
export const admin: RequestDecorator = new AuthenticationDecorator('admin', '123456');
export const user: RequestDecorator = new AuthenticationDecorator('user', '123456');

Then, on the tests, all you will need to do is

import { Http } from '@libstack/tester';
import { testHelper, admin, user } from './TestHelper';

const http: Http = testHelper.http; // this HTTP will perform annonymous request
const httpAdmin: Http = http.as(admin); // this HTTP will perform admin authenticated requests
const httpUser: Http = http.as(user); // this HTTP will perform user authenticated requests
