CHANGELOG

API

var createFormatter = require('power-assert-formatter');

return type
`function`

Returns creator function for power-assert.

var formatter = createFormatter([options]);

return type
`function`

Create formatter function with options. options argument is optional.

options

type	default value
`object`	(return value of `createFormatter.defaultOptions()`)

Configuration options. If not passed, default options will be used.

options.lineDiffThreshold

type	default value
`number`	`5`

Threshold to show diff at character level or line level. If number of lines in target string is greater than lineDiffThreshold, then line diff mode will be used to show diff output.

options.maxDepth

type	default value
`number`	`1`

Depth of object traversal. If object depth is greater than maxDepth, compound object (IOW, Array or object) will be pruned with # like ["foo",#Array#,#Object#].

options.outputOffset

type	default value
`number`	`2`

Number of spaces inserted at the left in power-assert output.

options.anonymous

type	default value
`string`	`"Object"`

Type name to show when target object is created by anonymous constructor.

options.circular

type	default value
`string`	`"#@Circular#"`

Name to show when target object is detected as circular structure.

options.lineSeparator

type	default value
`string`	`"\n"`

Line separator in power assert output.

options.ambiguousEastAsianCharWidth

type	default value
`number`	`2`

Width of 'Ambiguous' characters defined in Unicode Standard Annex #11 EAST ASIAN WIDTH. Configure options.ambiguousEastAsianCharWidth to treat ambiguous east asian character as fullwidth (= 2) or narrow (= 1). Default is 2.

options.widthOf

type	default value
`function`	string-width.js

Function to calculate width of string.

options.stringify

type	default value
`function`	stringifier module

Function to stringify any target value.

options.diff

type	default value
`function`	udiff.js

Function to create diff string between two strings.

options.writerClass

type	default value
`function`	string-writer.js

Constructor Function for output writer class.

options.renderers

type	default value
`Array` of (`string` or `function` )	shown below

[
    './built-in/file',
    './built-in/assertion',
    './built-in/diagram',
    './built-in/binary-expression'
]

Output renderers. Power assert output is rendered by renderers in order. You can create custom renderer and add its constructor function to customize power-assert-output.

[
    './built-in/file',
    './built-in/assertion',
    YourCustomRenderer,
    './built-in/binary-expression'
]

var options = createFormatter.defaultOptions();

Returns default options object for createFormatter function. In other words, returns

{
    lineDiffThreshold: 5,
    maxDepth: 1,
    anonymous: 'Object',
    circular: '#@Circular#',
    lineSeparator: '\n',
    ambiguousEastAsianCharWidth: 2,
    renderers: [
        './built-in/file',
        './built-in/assertion',
        './built-in/diagram',
        './built-in/binary-expression'
    ]
};

var formattedText = formatter(powerAssertContext);

return type
`string`

Format powerAssertContext into formattedText. powerAssertContext is an internal object structure, containing informations to render. Example of powerAssertContext is:

{
    source: {
        content: "assert.equal(foo, bar)",
        filepath: "/path/to/some_test.js",
        line: 1
    },
    args: [
        {
            value: "foo",
            events: [
                {
                    value: "foo",
                    espath: "arguments/0"
                }
            ]
        },
        {
            value: "bar",
            events: [
                {
                    value: "bar",
                    espath: "arguments/1"
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}
