This may be a silly question but I really don't know where to look.
I'm creating a browser testing environment for a pretty large-scale API written in typescript. This API uses esbuild to build the typescript files into a /dist/ folder with a single index.js entry-point and its appropriate d.ts file.
I've created a /tests/ folder to hold some browser files that includes an index.html file with Mocha and Chai imported. It also imports /dist/index.js which is set globally to a window.myAPI variable.
In /tests/index.html:
import * as myAPI from "./dist/index.js"
Alongside index.html in the tests folder, there are separate JS files included for different tests that run things on window.myAPI... to do assertion tests.
search.test.js
book.test.js
navigate.test.js
I then run a server to host at the root. These separate tests are then imported from /tests/index.html. The separate tests look like this inside:
const { chai, mocha } = window;
const { assert } = chai;
describe("Search", function() {
describe("Setup", function() {
it("Setting URL should work", function() {
const call = myAPI.someCall()
assert.ok(call);
});
});
});
mocha.run();
Everything works, but I have no code hinting for myAPI. I'd like to be able to see what functions are available when I type myAPI, and what parameters they take, and what they should return - along with all my comments on each function.
In typescript you can do things like ambient declarations, but I don't want to make my tests typescript because then I add an unnecessary build step to the tests. But it would be as easy as:
/// <reference path = "/dist/index.d.ts" />
How can I tell VSCode that window.myAPI is an import of /dist/index.js and should import the types as well so I can see them ?
I'm open to different solutions to this, but I feel like this should be pretty simple. I don't know if ESLint is capable of doing something like this, but I tagged it because I feel it's relevant.
Thanks!

I tried to use CasperJS for headless browser testing using PhantomJS and wanted to have a config file or something to change Website URL, Username passwords etc. So finally I found NuclearJS. Do you guys know any other perfect way to do this? If I wanted to write a one from the scratch would like to know about as well.
I got a solution (not perfect ;) ) that is using multiple configfiles (for selector, execution, desktop, mobile, etc).
I include a in the execution of my casperjs tests a file that offers me all configs i need (i include also global functions there).
Lets guess the test execution looks like that:
casperjs test --includes=loadGlobals.js test_1.js
In the that example loadGlobals.js contains functions like that:
var fs = require('fs');
var config = {},
configFile = fs.read('config.json');
config = JSON.parse(configFile);
Probalby the config.json is looking like that:
{
"url": "http://www.yourTestUrl.com",
"variable_1": "bla",
"variable_2": "blub",
"nextTier": {
"variable_1": "blablub"
}
}
Now you can call in the test_1.js the variables of the config.json:
casper.start(config.url, function() {
casper.then(function() {
casper.echo(config.variable_1);
casper.echo(config.variable_2);
casper.echo(config.nextTier.variable_1);
});
})
casper.run();
You can use like that different configurationfiles, even to override it during tests if nessacary.
The tests should be written in the page object pattern style so they are highly maintable, espacially with a outsourced configuration.
NuclearJS i didn't know, but i will take a look into it, too.
In general, I want to know how to do code-generation/fabrication in a Webpack plugin on demand. I want to generate contents for files that do not exist when they are "required."
Specifically, I want a plugin that, when I require a directory, automatically requires all files in that directory (recursively).
For example, suppose we have the directory structure:
foo
bar.js
baz.js
main.js
And main.js has:
var foo = require("./foo");
// ...
I want webpack to automatically generate foo/index.js:
module.exports = {
bar: require("./bar"),
baz: require("./baz")
};
I've read most of the webpack docs. github.com/webpack/docs/wiki/How-to-write-a-plugin has an example of generating assets. However, I can't find an example of how to generate an asset on demand. It seems this should be a Resolver, but resolvers seem to only output file paths, not file contents.
Actually for your use case:
Specifically, I want a plugin that, when I require a directory, automatically requires all files in that directory (recursively).
you don't need a plugin. See How to load all files in a subdirectories using webpack without require statements
Doing code-generation/fabrication on demand can be done in JavaScript quite easily, why would you restrict your code generation specifically to only applied, when "required" by WebPack?
As NodeJS itself will look for an index.js, if you require a directory, you can quite easily generate arbitrary exports:
//index.js generating dynamic exports
var time = new Date();
var dynamicExport = {
staticFn : function() {
console.log('Time is:', time);
}
}
//dynamically create a function as a property in dynamicExport
//here you could add some file processing logic that is requiring stuff on demand and export it accordingly
dynamicExport['dyn' + time.getDay()] = function() {
console.log('Take this Java!');
}
module.exports = dynamicExport;
I'm having troubles installing extensions in IPython. The problem is that i can't get the extensions load automatically, i have followed the instructions in the github page but it just doesn't work. According the the homepage i need to modify the custom.js file by adding some lines. I want to install the codefolding, hide_input_all and runtools extensions. This is how my custom.js file looks:
// activate extensions only after Notebook is initialized
require(["base/js/events"], function (events) {
$([IPython.events]).on("app_initialized.NotebookApp", function () {
/* load your extension here */
IPython.load_extensions('usability/codefolding/codefolding')
IPython.load_extensions('usability/runtools/runtools')
require(['/static/custom/hide_input_all.js'])
});
});
The extensions work well if i call them manually, for example, if i type
%%javascript
IPython.load_extensions('usability/runtools/runtools/main');
the runtools appear and works perfectly, but i want the extensions to be loaded automatically and not to have to call them manually every time. Could someone tell me where is my mistake?
There's been a little change to the syntax. Nowadays, $ might not be defined by the time your custom.js loads, so instead of something like
$([IPython.events]).on("app_initialized.NotebookApp", function () {
IPython.load_extensions("whatever");
});
you should do something like
require(['base/js/namespace', 'base/js/events'], function(IPython, events) {
events.on('app_initialized.NotebookApp', function(){
IPython.load_extensions("whatever");
})
});
with the appropriate changes to braces and parentheses. For me, the former will work more often than not, but certainly not always; it fails maybe ~1/3 of the time.
If that doesn't do it for you, open up Developer Tools (or whatever is relevant for your browser) and look at the javascript console for errors. That'll help figure out what's going wrong.
I just getting started with SailsJS as my first web framework on Node. Let's say I wanna add MomentJS in and use across the app. How to set it up?
you can use the bootstrap.js (in config/)
like:
module.exports.bootstrap = function (cb) {
sails.moment = require('moment');
cb();
};
in all Sails-Files you can use
sails.moment()
now.
If you're trying to include your node_modules into the client side, such as jQuery, AngularJS or one of the various many font libraries, then you can npm install them as normal, but just to be sure in sails you edit your tasks/config/copy.js and add a new block, example:
grunt.config.set('copy', {
dev: {
files: [{
expand:true,
cwd: './node_modules/font-awesome/fonts',
src: ['**/*'],
dest: '.tmp/public/fonts'
}
}
});
LESS can be #imported like normal without being copied around. Other assets will need to be copied as above. If you're using the sails linker then don't forget to add your JS paths to tasks/pipeline.js too (if necessary).
You can read more here:
http://ash.zi.vc/sails/2016/02/02/including-client-side-node-modules-in-my-sails-application/
It's not directly obvious how to sync npm modules to the web accessible directories.
SailsJS is no different to any other NodeJS app. So on top of your (say) Controller.js file, you do
var m = require("moment");
And you're good to go. #mdunisch's method will obviously let you use the moment package throughout your app, without having to do "require" in each file.
I'm writing a sort of dashboard-esque program in Python to make tasks that I do frequently here at work a little better/easier.
What I currently have set up is an actions module. actions contains an actionlist that is a list of classes. Each of my classes has a .title, .icon (base-64 encoded string for use with tkinter.PhotoImage), and a .action function.
Using tkinter I create a new button for each of these actions, with the appropriate icon, text, and the command of the button set to the .action. So far it works quite nicely, but if I want to create a new action, I have to go into my actions module, create a new class, and then put that class in my actionlist.
What I would like to do is be able to dynamically generate this actionlist based on what files are present in my module. So I would like to have something like this:
actions/
__init__.py
someaction.py
do_another_thing.py
do_all_the_things.py
chop_down_the_tree_with_a_herring.py
And whenever I would like to create a new action, I just put a .py script in my actions folder and then it would automagically generate the list of actions for me, however I can't seem to find any good way of creating this list. I've thought of using something like os.listdir to get the list of files, but neither that or the other methods of introspection (dir, and inspect.getmembers) seemed to have quite what I wanted. Of course, it's possible that I just missed the features that I need.
In any case, pointers in the right direction would be great. Thanks!
SOLUTION:
Lennart's solution, with some slight adaptations worked for me.
Inside my __init__.py I have the following code:
plugins = []
__all__ = [
'do_all_the_things',
'do_another_thing',
'someaction',
'chop_down_the_tree_with_a_herring',
'seek_the_grail',
]
Then inside each of my plugins I have something like this:
from actions import plugins
class SeekTheGrail:
def __init__(self):
self.text = 'We Seek The Grail'

def action(self):
print('I am Arthur, King of the Britons!')
plugins.append(SeekTheGrail())
and now I just have to modify the __all__ collection when I want to add or remove the actions from loading.
The way to create plugins is to have a plugin registry, and register plugins there. This can be done from the amazingly simple, like just defining a global list in a module:
plugins = []
And then registering the plugins with:
class APlugin(object):
blahblah
from themodule import plugins
plugin.add(APlugin())
This can be made more flexible by having types of plugins and registering them with a name etc. But then you are on the path to complexity, and then you might want to take a look at the Zope Component Architecture, which simply speaking is a very powerful system for making your application pluggable.
It should be noted that in any case it's best to have a list of what plugins should be activated instead of auto-discovering them. This can be as simple as a list in a text file or a setting in a config file. This enables you to easily activate and disactivate the plugins.
You can use something like this:
actions = {}
for filename in os.listdir('somepath/actions'):
actions[filename] = __import__('actions.'+filename)
for name,class in actions:
createButton(name,class)
Where in the createButton you create your tk_inter button and assign it the functions from the class. The important bit i suppose is that you can use __import__ to import a class using its string name and save it as a variable.
