SmallJS

SmallJS Node test project

This project tests the Node.js libraries of SmallJS by running its unit tests. Before running the tests, all ST sources are compiled first.

Getting started

First install npm dependencies by running ./install.sh (or npm install) in a terminal. Then run ./build.sh to compile the project and see that the unit tests are performed successfully. To run the tests again without recompiling, use ./start.sh.

The file src/main.ts (compiled to out/main.js) does application startup. It dynamically loads the compiled ST class NodeApp from out/NodeApp.js and calls its start method.

Database support

Database support classes are in the subfolder: ‘Database’.

These databases are supported: SQLite, Postgres, MariaDB and MySQL. To set them up look here: ../Database/Database.md

Database support is disabled by default. To enable it, copy the file .env.example to .env and uncomment the connection string(s) to the database(s) you want and enter the login credentials for your database server(s).

Now the unit tests of the selected databases will run automatically.
