Use this to test a server for compliance with the PubSubHubbub spec at version 0.4.
NOTE: currently very unfinished
HUB_URL=http://pubsubhubbub.superfeedr.com CB_URL=http://testsuite.lvh.me ./node_modules/.bin/mocha
This will run the test server. Note that this won't actually work unless the server behind HUB_URL can access CB_URL, which in this case is unlikely (unless you are Julien).
To use this test suite, you need to provide two URLS via the runtime environment:
- HUB_URL: this URL of the hub which will be tested for compliance with the PubSubHubbub spec
- CB_URL: this is the callback URL through which the hub will communicate with this test suite
You may also provide a PORT on which to bind, otherwise 8000 will be used as a default. (This test suite will bind to this port on all interfaces while it is active.)
Make sure your callback URL will indeed allow the hub to connect to the listening test suite, i.e. simply providing CB_URL=http://localhost:8000 will only work if the hub's "localhost" is the same as the test suite's. To test a public hub, you will need to expose this test suite publicly, by e.g. deploying it to "production".
To speed up development, I'm actually tunneling traffic from a public server of mine to my local machine.
1. nginx config (on public server)
Assuming wildcard DNS is already set up for an existing subdomain, add this to an nginx sites-enabled configuration file:
server {
listen 80;
server_name testsuite.example.com;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8455;
proxy_redirect / /;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
}
Then sudo service nginx reload.
2. ssh tunnelling (run from dev machine)
ssh -R 8455:localhost:8000 user@testsuite.example.com -N # blocks shell, add `-f` to run in background
3. There is no step three! Actually there is: run the testsuite with CB_URL=http://testsuite.example.com
