Sequel::Fixture

Build Status Code Climate

Just like Rails fixtures, but for Sequel.

This version includes support for defining the fixture schemas and uses sqlite3 adapter to inject data into memory.

Usage

Each fixture file defines the schema and data for a single table which is named after the file name.

Schema definition is optional, but note that db inserts will fail if the tables do not exist.

Assuming you have a fixture for the table users with:

# fixtures/simple/users.yaml
schema:
  - name: name
    type: string
    primary_key: true
  - name: last_name
    type: string
  - name: empty
    type: string
data:
  - name: John
    last_name: Doe
    email: john@doe.com
  - name: Jane
    last_name: Doe
    email: jane@doe.com

and for messages:

# fixtures/simple/messages.yaml
schema:
  - name: sender_id
    type: integer
    primary_key: true
  - name: receiver_id
    type: integer
  - name: text
    type: string
data:
  - sender_id: 1
    receiver_id: 2
    text: Hi Jane! Long time no see.
  - sender_id: 2
    receiver_id: 1
    text: John! Long time indeed. How are you doing?

and the ruby script

# script.rb
require "sequel-fixture"

DB = Sequel.sqlite # Just a simple example, needs sqlite3 gem

## Set the path of the fixture yaml files to be [script.rb]/fixtures/
Sequel::Fixture.path = File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "fixtures")

fixture = Sequel::Fixture.new :simple, DB # Will load all the data in the fixture into the database

fixture.users               # == fixture[:users]
fixture.users[0].name     # => "John"
                            # The YAML files are parsed into a SymbolMatrix
                            # http://github.com/Fetcher/symbolmatrix
                            # Each table contains an array of Rows.
                            # Within each row the columns can be accessed by name (.name)

fixture.rollback            # returns users and messages to pristine status ('TRUNCATE')


fixture = Sequel::Fixture.new :simple, DB, false    # The `false` flag prevent the constructor to automatically push
                                                    # the fixture into the database
                                                    
fixture.check               # Will fail if the user or messages table
                            # were already occupied with something
                            
fixture.push                # Inserts the fixture in the database

fixture.rollback            # Don't forget to rollback

...naturally, sequel-fixture makes a lot more sense within some testing framework.
