citgm is a simple tool for pulling down an arbitrary module from npm and testingit using a specific version of the node runtime.
The Node.js project uses citgm to smoke test our releases and controversialchanges. The Jenkins job that utilizes citgm can be foundon our CI.
npm install -g citgm
citgm --help
Usage: citgm [options] <module>Options: -h, --help output usage information -V, --version output the version number --config Path to a JSON config file -v, --verbose, --loglevel [level], Verbose output (silly, verbose, info, warn, error) -q, --npm-loglevel [level] Verbose output (silent, error, warn, http, info, verbose, silly) -l, --lookup <path> Use the lookup table provided at <path> -d, --nodedir <path> Path to the node source to use when compiling native addons -p, --test-path <path> Path to prepend to $PATH when running tests -n, --no-color Turns off colorized output -s, --su Allow running the tool as root. -m, --markdown Output results in markdown -t, --tap [path] Output results in tap with optional file path --customTest <path> Run a custom node test script instead of "npm test" -x, --junit [path] Output results in junit xml with optional file path -o, --timeout <length> Set timeout for npm install -c, --sha <commit-sha> Install module from commit-sha, branch or tag -u, --uid <uid> Set the uid (posix only) -g, --gid <uid> Set the gid (posix only) -a, --append Turns on append results to file mode rather than replace --tmpDir <path> Directory to test modules in
Test the latest underscore module or a specific version:citgm underscore@latest
orcitgm underscore@1.3.0
Test a local module:citgm ./my-module
Test using a tar.gz from Github:citgm http://github.com/jasnell/activitystrea.ms/archive/HEAD.tar.gz
When using a JSON config file, the properties need to be the same as thelonger-form CLI options. You can also use environment variables. For example,CITGM_TEST_PATH=$HOME/bin
is the same as--test-path $HOME/bin
.
The tool requires online access to the npm registry to run. If you want to pointto a private npm registry, then you'll need to set that up in your npm configseparately before running citgm.
By default, the tool will prevent users from running as root unless the-s
or--su
CLI switch is set. If the tool is launched as root, it will attempt tosilently and automatically downgrade permissions. If it cannot downgrade, itwill print an error and exit the process.
If you want to run all the test suites for all modules found in a lookup tableuse citgm-all. It will automate the running of all tests and give itemizedresults at the end. It has all the same options as citgm except for the addedmarkdown option which will print the results in markdown.
Usage: citgm-all [options]Options: -h, --help output usage information -V, --version output the version number --config Path to a JSON config file -v, --verbose, --loglevel [level], Verbose output (silly, verbose, info, warn, error) -q, --npm-loglevel [level] Verbose output (silent, error, warn, http, info, verbose, silly) -l, --lookup <path> Use the lookup table provided at <path> -d, --nodedir <path> Path to the node source to use when compiling native addons -p, --test-path <path> Path to prepend to $PATH when running tests -n, --no-color Turns off colorized output -s, --su Allow running the tool as root. -m, --markdown Output results in markdown -t, --tap [path] Output results in tap with optional file path --customTest <path> Run a custom node test script instead of "npm test" -x, --junit [path] Output results in junit xml with optional file path -o, --timeout <length> Set timeout for npm install -f, --fail-flaky Ignore flaky flags. Do not ignore any failures. -u, --uid <uid> Set the uid (posix only) -g, --gid <uid> Set the gid (posix only) -a, --append Turns on append results to file mode rather than replace -j, --parallel <number> Run tests in parallel -J, --autoParallel Run tests in parallel (automatically detect core count) --tmpDir <path> Directory to test modules in --includeTags tag1 tag2 Only test modules from the lookup that contain a matching tag field --excludeTags tag1 tag2 Specify which tags to skip from the lookup (takes priority over includeTags) Module names are automatically added as tags. -y, --yarn Install and test the project using yarn instead of npm --pnpm Install and test the project using pnpm instead of npm
When using a JSON config file, the properties need to be the same as thelonger-form CLI options. You can also use environment variables. For example,CITGM_TEST_PATH=$HOME/bin
is the same as--test-path $HOME/bin
.
You can also test your own list of modules:
citgm-all -l ./path/to/my_lookup.json
For syntax, seelookup.json, the available attributes are:
"npm": true Download the module from npm instead of github"head": true Use the head of the default branch"prefix": "v" Specify the prefix used in the module version."flaky": true Ignore failures"skip": true Completely skip the module"expectFail" Expect the module to fail, error if it passes"repo": "https://github.com/pugjs/jade" - Use a different github repo"stripAnsi": true Strip ansi data from output stream of npm"sha": "<git-commit-sha>" Test against a specific commit"envVar" Pass an environment variable before running"install": ["install", "--param1", "--param2"] - Array of command line parameters passed to `npm` or `yarn` or `pnpm` as install arguments"maintainers": ["user1", "user2"] - List of module maintainers to be contacted with issues"scripts": ["script1", "script2"] - List of scripts from package.json to run instead of 'test'"tags": ["tag1", "tag2"] Specify which tags apply to the module"useGitClone": true Use a shallow git clone instead of downloading the module"ignoreGitHead": Ignore the gitHead field if it exists and fallback to using github tags"yarn": Install and test the project using yarn instead of npm"pnpm": Install and test the project using pnpm instead of npm"timeout": Number of milliseconds before timeout. Applies separately to `install` and `test`
If you want to pass options to npm, eg--registry
, you can usually define anenvironment variable, eg"npm_config_registry": "https://www.xyz.com"
.
You can run the test suite using npm
npm runtest
This will run both a linter and a tap based unit test suite.
If you want to submit a module to be run in the Node.js CI, see therequirements.
You can identify the module to be tested using the same syntax supported by thenpm install
CLI command
citgm activitystrea.ms@latestcitgm git+http://github.com/jasnell/activitystrea.ms
Quite a few modules published to npm do not have their tests included, so we endup having to go directly to github. The most reliable approach is pulling down atar ball for a specific branch from github:
citgm https://github.com/caolan/async/archive/HEAD.tar.gz
To simplify working with modules that we know need special handling, a lookuptable mechanism is provided. This mechanism allows citgm to substitute certainknown npm specs (lodash for instance) with their github tarball alternatives.The lookup mechanism is switched on using the-l
or--lookup
command lineoption.
citgm lodash@latest
There is a built in lookup.json in the lib directory that will be used bydefault. If you want to use an alternative lookup.json file, pass in the path:
citgm --lookup ../path/to/lookup.json lodash@latest
For the most part, the built in table should be sufficient for general use.
You can run a custom test script instead ofnpm test
CLI command:
citgm --customTest path/to/customTestScript
If you want to get code coverage results, your custom test script may look like:
'use strict';const{ spawnSync}=require('child_process');constpath=require('path');constpackageName=require(path.join(process.cwd(),'package.json')).name;constcoverageProcess=spawnSync('nyc',['--reporter=json-summary',`--report-dir=${process.env.WORKSPACE}/${packageName}`,'npm','test']);constcoverageSummary=require(path.join(process.env.WORKSPACE,packageName,'coverage-summary.json'));console.log(packageName,'total coverage result(%)',coverageSummary.total.lines.pct);
You will have to globally install dependencies from thecustomTestScript
, inthis case:
npm install -g nyc
You may experience some wonkiness on Windows as the tool has not been fullytested on that platform.
The tool uses the npm and node in the PATH. To change which node and npm thetool uses, change the PATH before launching citgm
Running the tool in verbose mode (CLI switch
-v silly
) outputs significantlymore detail (which is likely what we'll want in a fully automated run)If you've taken a look at the dependencies for this tool, you'll note thatthere are quite a few, some of which may not be strictly required. The reasonfor the large number of dependencies is that thisis a testing tool, andmany of the dependencies are broadly used. A large part of the reason forusing them is to test that they'll work properly using the version of nodebeing tested.
