Test-readme-md NPM

test-readme-md

A tool that runs all JavaScript snippets in your README.md.

Installation

$ npm i test-readme-md

Usage

import { testmd } from "test-readme-md";

const block = `
# this is a readme

This is some regular text that describes something.

Here's the first code block:

\`\`\`js
(() => true)();
\`\`\`

## Buggy code

The code in the next section will throw an error. \`testmd\` should throw too if
such error is bubbled up.

\`\`\`js
(() => { throw new Error("stop") })();
\`\`\`
`;

(async () => {
  testmd("js", block);
})();

An alternative way of using this module is by running the block parser matchBlocks yourself and then running exec on each of them.

import { matchBlocks, exec } from "test-readme-md";

const content = `
# this is a readme

This is some regular text that describes something.

Here's the first code block:

\`\`\`js
(() => true)();
\`\`\`

## Buggy code

The code in the next section will throw an error. \`testmd\` should throw too if
such error is bubbled up.

\`\`\`js
(() => { throw new Error("stop") })();
\`\`\`
`;

(async () => {
  const blocks = matchBlocks(content);
  for (let block of blocks) {
    await exec(block);
  }
})();
