Method Subscribe
Allows subscribing to method or function calls for any object/instance.
Works by proxying a method (or function) and firing events on every call.
Different from other spy libraries that record interactions with methods this is intended to provide real-time events for method calls.
Useful for testing background logic or firing events from third-party code.
Use
const methodSubscribe = require('method-subscribe');
const proxy = methodSubscribe.proxy(myService, 'doStuff');
proxy.on('call', (e) => {
console.log('myService.doStuff called', e.arguments);
});
myService.doStuff(123);
- A
call
event is first emitted with the called arguments - The original
doStuff
method is then called
