node-mongodb-test2 v3.2.10
node-mongodb-fixtures forked from latest version by YuriSapiens
Setup and tear down test fixtures with MongoDB.
Use custom scripts to create indexes and more!

Install
npm install @yurisapiens/node-mongodb-fixturesCLI
For CLI use, it can be useful to install globally:
npm install @yurisapiens/node-mongodb-fixtures -gUsage
Programmatic
const Fixtures = require('node-mongodb-fixtures');
const fixtures = new Fixtures();
fixtures
.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/mydb')
.then(() => fixtures.unload())
.then(() => fixtures.load())
.then(() => fixtures.disconnect());See detailed programmatic usage below
CLI
❯ mongodb-fixtures load -u mongodb://localhost:27017/mydbTry the Example
The following example will load the example fixtures into a locally running MongoDB. To use another DB modify the the connection url accordingly (in step 2)
Run the example
- Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/cdimascio/node-mongodb-fixtures && cd node-mongodb-fixtures && npm install- Load the fixtures into MongoDb
node bin/mongodb-fixtures load -u mongodb://localhost:27017/mydb --path ./examples/fixturesCreate fixtures
How
- Choose a directory for your fixtures e.g.
./fixtures - Create any mix of JSON (
.json), JavaScript (.js) files. (see file rules below) - Each filename defines a MongoDB collection
JSON Files
The name of the JSON file is/will be the collection name. Each JSON file must contain a 'JSON Array of JSON objects'. Each JSON object is loaded as a document in the collection.
JSON files are useful when you can represent all of your documents as JSON.
[
{ "name": "Paul", "age": 36 },
{ "name": "Phoebe", "age": 26 }
]JavaScript Files
The name of the JSON file is/will be the collection name. Each .js file must return a 'JSON Array of JSON objects'. Each JSON object is loaded as a document in the collection.
JavaScript files are useful when you require code to represent your documents.
const { ObjectID: ObjectId } = require('mongodb');
module.exports = [
{ _id: ObjectId(), name: 'Paul', 'age': 36 },
{ _id: ObjectId(), name: 'Phoebe', 'age': 26 },
];Example Structure
fixtures/
|-- people.js
|-- places.jsonSee ./examples/fixtures
Collection Scripts: Indexes and more...
"Collection scripts" enable you to inject your own custom logic in the fixture creation lifecycle. Each custom script is passed a reference to a MongoDB collection. You may use this reference to modify the collection however you like. For example, you can add indexes and more.
How
- Create a new JavaScript file with an underscore
_suffix. e.g.people_.js. - The
_denotes a script. The text preceding it,people, is the collection name. - Each script is passed a single argument, the collection.
- Each must return a
functionthat takes acollectionand returns aPromise.
Example
// people_.js
module.exports = function(collection) {
// Write your custom logic and return a promise
return collection.createIndex( { "address.city": 1 }, { unique: false } );
}fixtures/
|-- people_.js
|-- people.js
|-- places.jsonNote: Custom scripts run after all fixtures have completed.
Programmatic Usage
Init
use the default fixtures directory,./fixtures
const Fixtures = require('node-mongodb-fixtures');
const fixtures = new Fixtures();or specifiy the fixtures directory
const Fixtures = require('node-mongodb-fixtures');
const fixtures = new Fixtures({
dir: 'examples/fixtures',
mute: false, // do not mute the log output
});or filter the fixtures present in the directory with a Regex pattern
const Fixtures = require('node-mongodb-fixtures');
const fixtures = new Fixtures({
dir: 'examples/fixtures',
filter: 'people.*',
});Connect
Use the standard MongoDB URI connection scheme
fixtures.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/mydb'); // returns a promiseconnect(uri, options, dbName)
| arg | type | description |
|---|---|---|
uri | string (required) | MongoDB connection string |
options | object (optional) | MongoDB connection options |
dbName | string (optional) | identifies a database to switch to. Useful when the db in the connection string differs from the db you want to connect to |
See: ./examples/ex1.js
Load
fixtures.load(); // returns a promiseUnload
fixtures.unload(); // returns a promiseDisconnect
fixtures.disconnect(); // returns a promiseExample
The following example does the following:
- connects to mongo
- then unloads all fixtures
- then loads all fixtures
- then disconnects
const Fixtures = require('node-mongodb-fixtures');
const uri = 'mongodb://localhost/mydb';
const options = null;
const fixtures = new Fixtures({
dir: 'examples/fixtures',
filter: '.*',
});
fixtures
.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/mydb')
.then(() => fixtures.unload())
.then(() => fixtures.load())
.catch(e => console.error(e))
.finally(() => fixtures.disconnect());CLI Usage
