pg-harness v0.2.1

PG-Setup - A Postgres test harness

Install

npm install pg-setup

Usage

var db = require('pg-harness')();
// promise-based version.
db.initAsync() // start 
  .then(function () {
    console.log('port =', db.port);
    return db.startAsync();
  })
  .then(function () {
    console.log('create database test');
    return db.createDBAsync('test');
 })
  .then(function () {
    console.log('connect.database.auth');
    return db.connectAsync('test');
  })
  .then (function () { // run sql script separated by ;
    return db.execScriptAsync('./schema.sql');
  })
  .then (function () {
    console.log('disconnect');
    return db.disconnectAsync();
  })
  .then(function () {
    return db.stopAsync();
  })
  .then(function () {
    return db.cleanAsync();
  })
  .catch(function (e) {
    console.error(e);
  });

pg-harness uses bluebird to create the promise-based methods, so it follows bluebird's pattern with Async appended to the promise version of the calls.

db = require('pg-harness')(options);

By default, you can pass in the following options:

• port - the port of the postgres instance. If not specified, it will be a randomly assigned port.
• dataPath - the location of the database. If not specified it will be a temp directory. If specified, the directory needs to exist.

If you pass in either options, you should not call init or initAsync.

Supported Methods

pg-harness utilizes easydbi and wraps their calls as appropriate.

init(callback); initAsync()

Initializes the database directory. This is equivalent to initdb call (and indeed implemented via initdb).

start(callback); startAsync()

Starts the database given the option specified in the constructor. Call after init or initAsync.

createDB(name, callback); createDBAsync(name)

Creates a database with the given name.

connect(name, callback); connectAsync(name)

Connects against the database with the given name. Note that at this time the harness only supports a single connection (i.e. you should not try to connect to multiple database with this module).

query(query, args, callback); queryAsync(query, args)

Wraps over the connection's query call.

queryOne(query, args, callback); queryOneAsync(query, args);

Wraps over the connection's queryOne call.

exec(query, args, callback); execAsync(query, args);

Wraps over the connection's exec call.

execScript(filePath, callback); execScriptAsync(filePath)

Wraps over the connection's execScript call.

begin(callback); beginAsync()

Wraps over the connection's begin call.

commit(callback); commitAsync()

Wraps over the connection's commit call.

rollback(callback); rollbackAsync()

Wraps over the connection's rollback call.

disconnect(callback); disconnectAsync()

Wraps over the connection's disconnect call.

stop(callback); stopAsync()

Stops the postgres instance. This is a force-kill.

clean(callback); cleanAsync()

Removes the data directory.
