Run arbitrary JavaScript or PogoScript on a server.
Please use this responsibly.
Preferable only in test code
First of all you need to start up the server specifying a port number to use.
If you are using karma you may want to put this in your karma.conf.js
file.
require('censeo').server.listen(3001)
or if you already have an http server
require('censeo').server(http)
Next you want to create a client:
client = require('censeo').client(3001)
where 3001 is the port censeo is running on
Then in your test (you should only use this for tests!).
client
.run(function() {
return 1 + 1;
}).then(function(result){
expect(result).to.equal(2)
})
or
client
.run(function() {
var fs = require("fs");
return new Promise(function(success){
fs.readdir(process.cwd(), success);
});
}).then(function(result) {
expect(result).to.include("node_modules");
});
Where censeo can come in really handy is if you need to spool up a webserver to test against.
To do this we use runTask
which lets you start a task and stop it at a later point:
client
.runTask(function() {
var http, app, server;
http = require("http");
app = http.createServer(function(req, res) {
var headers;
headers = {
"Content-Type": "text/plain",
Connection: "Close",
"Access-Control-Allow-Headers": "accept, x-requested-with, content-type",
"Access-Control-Allow-Methods": "GET, OPTIONS",
"Access-Control-Allow-Origin": req.headers.origin
};
if (req.method === "OPTIONS") {
res.writeHead(204, headers);
return res.end("OK");
} else {
res.writeHead(200, headers);
return res.end("ALIVE");
}
});
server = app.listen(8555);
console.log("listening on 8555");
return {
stop: function(done) {
var self = this;
return server.close(done);
}
};
}).then(function(task){
// make some http requests to the server
// then stop the server
task.stop(function(){
console.log('stopped')
})
})
PogoScript makes using censeo even better:
result = client.run! @{1+1}
expect(result).to.equal(2)
or to run a web server
task = client.runTask!()
http = require 'http'
app = http.createServer @(req, res)
headers = {
'Content-Type' = 'text/plain'
'Connection' = 'Close'
'Access-Control-Allow-Headers' = 'accept, x-requested-with, content-type'
'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' = 'GET, OPTIONS'
'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' = req.headers.origin
}
if (req.method == 'OPTIONS')
res.writeHead(204, headers)
res.end('OK')
else
res.writeHead(200, headers)
res.end('ALIVE')
server = app.listen(8555)
console.log "listening on 8555"
{
stop(done)=
server.close(done)
}
server url = 'http://localhost:8555'
response = request!({url = server url})
expect(response).to.equal('ALIVE')
task.stop!()
