graphixture

Usage

To use, you need an adapter. An adapter for Bookshelf is provided, and a probably highly broken skeleton for a Sequelize adapter is also in the repository.

var adapter = require('graphixture/bookshelf.adapter');

Then, initialize the Fixtures object with a reference to Bookshelf, a list of models, and the adapter.

var Bookshelf = require('bookshelf').DB;
var Graphixture = require('graphixture').Graphixture;
var fixtures = new Graphixture(Bookshelf, Bookshelf.models, adapter);

Now you can load a fixture graph that looks like this, assuming the relationships are correctly drawn up in your models:

var data = {
  Catalog: {
    cola: {
      name: 'Cola',
      description: 'Fizzy cola-flavoured drinks',
      groups: [ 'drink', 'fizzy' ]
    },
    coke: {
      name: 'Coca Cola',
      description: 'The one and only cola',
      manufacturer: 'cokecorp',
      supplier: 'amatil',
      parent: 'cola'
    }
  },
  Manufacturer: {
    cokecorp: { name: 'Coca Cola Corporation' }
  },
  Supplier: {
    amatil: { name: 'Amatil' }
  },
  Group: {
    drink: { name: 'Drink' },
    fizzy: { name: 'Fizzy' }
  }
};

Call the library like this (in a promise aware test-runner):

before(function() {
  return fixtures.clearAndLoad(data);
});

Or, in a callback-based test runner:

before(function(done) {
  fixtures.clearAndLoad(data).nodeify(done);
});

TODO

• test bookshelf hasOne and hasMany relationships
• implement and test bookshelf morph relationships
• fix tests to support various async orders (i.e., sometimes, drink gets loaded with id 2, not id 1)
