simple-stacktrace v0.2.1

simple-stacktrace

built this from the answers here https://github.com/visionmedia/mocha/issues/545 for the purpose of changing my stack traces from things like this:

1) Router POST /boards Import JSON column #1 has the right # of cards:

    AssertionError: expected 0 to equal 5
    + expected - actual

    +5
    -0

    at Context.<anonymous> (/Users/keyvan/Projects/mib/test/server/router_test.js:274:15)
    at callFn (/Users/keyvan/Projects/mib/node_modules/mocha/lib/runnable.js:223:21)

    at Object._onImmediate (/Users/keyvan/Projects/mib/node_modules/mocha/lib/runner.js:275:5)
    at processImmediate [as _immediateCallback] (timers.js:336:15)

to something more like this:

1) Router POST /boards Import JSON column #1 has the right # of cards:

    AssertionError: expected 0 to equal 5
    + expected - actual

    +5
    -0

    at Context.<anonymous> (test/server/router_test.js:274:15)
    at processImmediate [as _immediateCallback] (timers.js:336:15)

which is easier to read and fits nicely without wrapping or robbing context

install

npm install simple-stacktrace

usage

mocha -w ./test/ 2>&1 | simple-stacktrace

options

These are passed in for you automatically when using the pipe form above. If you wish, you can use the following form.

require('simple-stacktrace')({
  root: require('path').resolve(__dirname, '..')
})

This may be preferred for additional configuration, although in this case it would be better to expand on the simple-stacktrace binary and allow it to accept these options:

root: define where the root of your project lives if you want it to be stripped

node_modules: a false value hides any line that contains the string node_modules/ effectively hiding stack traces that occur outside your module. defaults to false
