-
Clone the master branch of this repository with
$ git clone --single-branch [email protected]:meltwater/makenew-node-lib.git <new-node-lib> $ cd <new-node-lib>
Optionally, reset to the latest version with
$ git reset --hard <version-tag>
-
Create an empty (non-initialized) repository on GitHub.
-
Run
$ ./makenew.sh
This will replace the boilerplate, delete itself, remove the git remote, remove upstream tags, and stage changes for commit.
-
Create the required CircleCI environment variables with
$ .circleci/envvars.sh
-
Review, commit, and push the changes to GitHub with
$ git diff --cached $ git commit -m "Replace makenew boilerplate" $ git remote add origin [email protected]:meltwater/<new-node-lib>.git $ git push -u origin master
-
Ensure the CircleCI build passes, then publish the initial version of the package with
$ nvm install $ yarn $ npm version patch
-
Update the GitHub branch protection options for
master
to require all status checks to pass. Disable the GitHub repository projects and wiki options (unless desired). Add any required GitHub teams or collaborators to the repository. Enable GitHub data services for dependency analysis. Enable Codecov. -

TODO
comments to add your first module.
If you want to pull in future updates from this skeleton, you can fetch and merge in changes from this repository.
Add this as a new remote with
$ git remote add upstream [email protected]:meltwater/makenew-node-lib.git
You can then fetch and merge changes with
$ git fetch --no-tags upstream
$ git merge upstream/master
Note that CHANGELOG.md
is just a template for this skeleton.
The actual changes for this project are documented in the commit history
and summarized under Releases.
TODO
Add this as a dependency to your project using npm with
$ npm install @meltwater/makenew-node-lib
or using Yarn with
$ yarn add @meltwater/makenew-node-lib
See the complete API documentation and working examples.
This package provides an async function which checks if its argument is true.
import isTrue from '@meltwater/makenew-node-lib'
const logTrue = async () => {
const trueValue = await isTrue(true)
console.log(trueValue)
}
logTrue().catch(err => { console.log(err) })
// true
$ git clone https://github.com/meltwater/makenew-node-lib.git
$ cd makenew-node-lib
$ nvm install
$ yarn
Run each command below in a separate terminal window:
$ yarn run watch
$ yarn run test:watch
The makenew-node-lib source is hosted on GitHub. Clone the project with
$ git clone [email protected]:meltwater/makenew-node-lib.git
You will need Node.js with npm, Yarn, and a Node.js debugging client.
Be sure that all commands run under the correct Node version, e.g., if using nvm, install the correct version with
$ nvm install
Set the active version for each shell session with
$ nvm use
Install the development dependencies with
$ yarn
CircleCI should already be configured: this section is for reference only.
The following environment variables must be set on CircleCI:
NPM_TOKEN
: npm token for installing and publishing packages.NPM_TEAM
: npm team to grant read-only package access (formatorg:team
, optional).CODECOV_TOKEN
: Codecov token for uploading coverage reports (optional).
These may be set manually or by running the script ./.circleci/envvars.sh
.
Primary development tasks are defined under scripts
in package.json
and available via yarn run
.
View them with
$ yarn run
Lint, test, and transpile the production build to dist
with
$ yarn run dist
Release a new version using npm version
.
This will run all tests, update the version number,
create and push a tagged commit,
and trigger CircleCI to publish the new version to npm.
- Update the CHANGELOG before each new release after version 1.
- New versions are released when the commit message is a valid version number.
- Versions are only published on release branches:
master
branch or any branch matchingver/*
. - If branch protection options are enabled,
you must first run
npm version
on a separate branch, wait for the commit to pass any required checks, then merge and push the changes to a release branch. - Do not use the GitHub pull request button to merge version commits as the commit tagged with the new version number will not match after merging.
See the full documentation on using examples.
View all examples with
$ yarn run example
Linting against the JavaScript Standard Style and JSON Lint is handled by gulp.
View available commands with
$ yarn run gulp --tasks
Run all linters with
$ yarn run lint
In a separate window, use gulp to watch for changes and lint JavaScript and JSON files with
$ yarn run watch
Automatically fix most JavaScript formatting errors with
$ yarn run format
Unit and integration testing is handled by AVA and coverage is reported by Istanbul and uploaded to Codecov.
- Test files end in
.spec.js
. - Unit tests are placed under
lib
alongside the tested module. - Integration tests are placed in
test
. - Static files used in tests are placed in
fixtures
.
Watch and run tests on changes with
$ yarn run test:watch
If using AVA snapshot testing, update snapshots with
$ yarn run test:update
Generate a coverage report with
$ yarn run report
An HTML version will be saved in coverage
.
Create a breakpoint by adding the statement debugger
to the test
and start a debug session with, e.g.,
$ yarn run test:inspect lib/true.spec.js
Watch and restart the debugging session on changes with
$ yarn run test:inspect:watch lib/true.spec.js
The author and active contributors may be found in package.json
,
$ jq .author < package.json
$ jq .contributors < package.json
To submit a patch:
- Request repository access by submitting a new issue.
- Create your feature branch (
git checkout -b my-new-feature
). - Make changes and write tests.
- Commit your changes (
git commit -am 'Add some feature'
). - Push to the branch (
git push origin my-new-feature
). - Create a new Pull Request.
