istanbul-lib-processinfo
A utility for managing the processinfo
folder that NYC
uses.
This is intended to be used along with NYC, but can also be used by other tools that wish to consume NYC’s processinfo data.
API
class ProcessInfo
A representation of information about a single process.
constructor(fields)
Pass in fields that will be printed to the processinfo file. Several defaults will be provided if not specified.
async processInfo.save()
Write this process info to disk. This works by passing the
ProcessInfo object to JSON.stringify, and writing to
${this.directory}/${this.uuid}.json
.
processInfo.saveSync()
The synchronous version of .save()
.
async processInfo.getCoverageMap(nyc)
Get a merged coverage map of the current process, as well as any
child processes. This should only be called during tree rendering, as it
depends on child nodes being present in the nodes
array.
The nyc
instance is required to load the report
information and apply sourcemaps properly.
processInfo.label
A read-only string for when archy prints the process tree.
processInfo.nodes
A list of the child nodes used during tree rendering.
processInfo.directory
If a process will be saved, it must have a directory
included in the list of fields. This property is not saved to the
processinfo file.
class ProcessDB
A utility for interacting with the collection of ProcessInfo files in the processinfo folder.
constructor(directory)
Supply the directory where processinfo files are found. This should
be the full path, something like
${cwd}/.nyc_output/processinfo
.
processDB.directory
A read-only property showing the directory where this object is working.
processDB.nodes
A list of child ProcessInfo nodes used in tree printing.
processDB.label
The string 'nyc'
, used as the default root node in the
archy tree rendering.
async processDB.writeIndex()
Create the index.json
file in the processinfo folder,
which is required for tree generation and expunging.
WARNING: Index writing is non-atomic, and should not be performed by multiple processes.
async processDB.readIndex()
Read and return the contents of the index.json
file. If
the index.json
is not present or not valid, then it will
attempt to generate one.
async processDB.readProcessInfos()
Read all the data files in the processinfo folder, and return an object mapping the file basename to the resulting object. Used in tree generation.
async processDB.renderTree(nyc)
Render the tree as a string using archy, suitable for printing to the terminal.
async processDB.buildProcessTree()
Build the hierarchical tree of nodes for tree rendering. Populates
the nodes
array of this object and all
ProcessInfo
objects in the tree.
async processDB.getCoverageMap(nyc)
Used in tree rendering, to show the total coverage of all the processinfo files in the data folder.
async processDB.spawn(name, file, args, options)
Spawn a child process with a unique name provided by the caller. This
name is stored as the externalId
property in the child
process’s ProcessInfo
data, and is tracked in the
externalIds
section of the index.
Note that if the current process is not already wrapped by nyc, then
you must prefix the spawned program with nyc, in order for this to take
effect. For example, instead of
processDB.spawn('foo', 'node', ['foo.js'])
, you would run
processDB.spawn('foo', 'nyc', ['node', 'foo.js'])
.
If a process with that name already exists in the index, then it will be expunged.
Unlike child_process.spawn
this function returns a
Promise which resolves to the ChildProcess
object.
WARNING: Calling expunge
(which this method does) will
result in the index being out of date. It is the caller’s responsibility
to call processDB.writeIndex()
when all named processes are
completed.
async processDB.expunge(name)
If a process exists in the process info data folder with the
specified name (ie, it had previously been run with
processDB.spawn(name, ...)
) then the coverage and
processinfo files for it and all of its children are removed.
This allows for a test harness to re-run or resume test suites, without spurious coverage results.
WARNING: Calling expunge
will result in the index being
out of date. It is the caller’s responsibility to call
processDB.writeIndex()
when all named processes are
completed.
DATA STRUCTURES and FILES
ProcessInfo files MUST match the following structure:
{
"uuid": "UUID of the process itself",
"parent": "UUID of the parent process, or null",
"pid": Number,
"ppid": Number (pid of parent process),
"argv": Array<String>,
"execArgv": Array<String>,
"cwd": path,
"time": Number (timestamp in ms),
"coverageFilename": "Path to NYC coverage info for this process",
"externalId": "The externally specified name for this process, or null",
}
The index file is saved to ${this.directory}/index.json
.
It has the following structure:
{
"processes": {
"<uuid>": {
"parent": "parent uuid, or null",
"children": ["children", "uuids", "or empty array"],
"externalId": "externally specified name, if provided"
},
...
},
"files": {
"/path/to/covered/file.js": [
"<uuids of processes that covered this file>",
...
],
...
},
"externalIds": {
"externally specified name": {
"root": "<uuid of process run under this name>",
"children": [
"<uuids of all descendant processes from this point in the tree>",
...
]
},
...
}
}
