Introduction

Typescript SDK for Common Data Model.

Setup Instructions

1. The build process requires PowerShell. Make sure to add Powershell to your PATH - C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0

2. Install Node.js.

3. To set up debugging in Visual Studio Code, create launch.json configuration with following:

   {
       "version": "0.2.0",
       "configurations": [
           {
               "name": "Debug Jest Tests",
               "type": "node",
               "request": "launch",
               "runtimeArgs": [
               "--inspect-brk",
               "--trace-uncaught",
               "${workspaceRoot}/node_modules/jest/bin/jest.js",
               "--runInBand"
               ],
               "console": "integratedTerminal",
               "internalConsoleOptions": "neverOpen",
               "port": 9229
           }
       ]
   }

   You can optionally install Jest Test Explorer to run the tests using an extensible user interface - Test Explorer UI.

Build

1. To download packages and their dependencies type npm ci.

   Note: Use npm ci instead of npm install. One of the biggest downside of the npm install command is its unexpected behavior that it may mutate the package-lock.json, whereas npm ci only uses the version in the lockfile and produces an error if the package-lock.json and package.json are out of sync.

2. To build the project type npm run build

Unit tests

1. To run the unit tests type npm run test
2. A set of Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 tests are included but disabled by default. To enable them follow the instructions here
