I am noob on front-end world and could not find a solution for that I have a MainPanel component and I want to get data by using a service class method. The service class will have multiple functions and I will use them in different places.
Here is MainPanel code:
const [posts, setPosts] = useState({ blogs: [] });
const service = FetchCustomerService;
useEffect(() => {
const fetchPostList = async () => {
let customers = service.getCustomerList;
setPosts({ customers });
console.log(customers);
};
fetchPostList();
}, []);
And I want to create a separate service class for calls to backend:
export class FetchCustomerService {
getCustomerList = () => {
const { data } = await axios(
"https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts"
);
return data;
}
getAnotherFunction = () => {
}
}
export default FetchCustomerService;
How can I call service class method from MainPanel? There are some examples like giving the service class into main panel as props but isn't it possible to just call it like a Java class object etc calling like:
FetchCustomerService.getCustomerList();
You don't need a class for that, just export the functions you need from the file:
export async function getCustomerList() {
const { data } = await axios(
"https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts"
);
return data;
}
export function getAnotherFunction(){
...
}
import { getCustomerList } from 'yourFile';
...
useEffect(() => {
const fetchPostList = async () => {
const customers = await getCustomerList();
setPosts({ customers });
};
fetchPostList();
}, []);
I'm using react-google-recaptcha to generate invisible ReCaptcha and I need to use the token in another const.
The token is generating correctly, but I don't know how to pass it on to another location. How should I do this?
const onTextSubmit = async () => {
let recaptchaToken;
if (recaptchaLoaded) {
recaptchaToken = await recaptcha.current.execute();
}
// How to export recaptchaToken?
};
I need to get the recaptchaToken and use it here:
const onSubmit: SubmitHandler<FormInput> = (data) => {
formCreateMutation.mutate({
data,
recaptchaToken,
});
};
The two const are in the same file, I'm using react to do that.
Thanks!!
You are not posting all code from the component but you can store the recaptchaToken value in react state like this:
export default function App() {
const [recaptchaToken, setRecaptchaToken] = useState(undefined);
const onTextSubmit = async () => {
if (recaptchaLoaded) {
const value = await recaptcha.current.execute();
setRecaptchaToken(value);
}
// How to export recaptchaToken?
};
const onSubmit: SubmitHandler<FormInput> = (data) => {
if (recaptchaToken) {
formCreateMutation.mutate({
data,
recaptchaToken,
});
}
};
return (
<div className="App">
<h1>{recaptchaToken}</h1>
</div>
);
}
I do have an issue when I want to decorate my export with a wrapper.
I have a wrapper/hof function that encapsulate the real function like this:
import { withSth } from './anotherFile'
import { someConst } from './someConst'
const myFunc = () => {}
export {
myFunc: withSth(someConst, myFunc)
}
Parsing error: ',' expected.
This does not work while this work:
import { withSth } from './anotherFile'
import { someConst } from './someConst'
const myFunc = () => {}
module.exports = {
myFunc: withSth(someConst, myFunc)
}
The only way i can do this is like this:
import { withSth } from './anotherFile'
import { someConst } from './someConst'
const myFuncX = () => {}
const myFunc = withSth(someConst, myFuncX)
// OR
// const myFync = withSth(someConst, () => {})
// but it lose readability
module.exports = {
myFunc
}
My point is how can I do the same thing with export and without using default export and renaming all my function
module.exports = {
methodA: withSth(param, methodA),
methodB: withSth(param, methodB),
methodC: withSth(param, methodC),
methodD: withSth(param, methodD),
}
Unlike Commonjs modules (with module.exports), ES6 modules do not export values but variable bindings. You must declare a variable1, you cannot export something unnamed. So your choices are only
export const myFunc = withSth(someConst, myFuncX);
const myFuncX = () => {};
export const myFync = withSth(someConst, () => {});
const myFuncX = () => {};
const myFyncY = withSth(someConst, () => {});
export { myFuncY as myFunc }
1: with the exception of export default …;, which implicitly declares a variable with an unforgeable name for you. But you want multiple named exports.
I have a few exported functions from ES6 module like:
export const funA = params => 'hello funA';
export const funB = params => 'hello funB';
I'd like to wrap them before exporting:
const wrapper = params => fun => {
// some extra logic
Object.assign(params, { extra: 'data' });
return fun(params);
};
export const funA = wrapper(params => 'hello funA');
export const funB = wrapper(params => 'hello funB');
It works this way, but I'm wondering if it's possible to define funA and funB without wrapper invocation in a way simmilar to:
import { mapValues } from 'lodash';
const wrapper = params => fun => {
// some extra logic
Object.assign(params, { extra: 'data' });
return fun(params);
};
const funA = params => 'hello funA';
const funB = params => 'hello funB';
export default mapValues({ funA, funB }, wrapper);
The issue with above snippet is that named exports are not used.
Can I achieve named exports with possibility to wrap them with wrapper middleware dynamically?
Where are you going to determine which wrapper middleware?
You could do something like
export const funA = middleware => params => 'funA'
export const funB = middleware => params => 'funB'
then at the callsite:
import { funA } from './module.js'
const funFunA = middleware(funA)
But this is sounding more and more like a case for function composition:
import { funA } from './module.js'
import { nextFun } from './other.js'
const funFunA = compose(nextFun, funA)
Depending on your needs it might also be worth your while using something like the Arrow monad
https://evilsoft.github.io/crocks/docs/crocks/Arrow.html
Edit:
const _funA = a => b
export const funA = (...args) => {
switch (currentMood) {
case 'saucy': return sauce(_funA(...args))
default: return _funA(...args)
}
If you want to avoid repeating wrapper in every line, you could use destructuring assignment and named export. However, this requires repeating { funA, funB, ..., funXYZ }.
import { mapValues } from 'lodash';
const wrapper = params => fun => {
// some extra logic
Object.assign(params, { extra: 'data' });
return fun(params);
};
let funA = params => 'hello funA';
let funB = params => 'hello funB';
let { funA, funB } = mapValues({ funA, funB }, wrapper);
export { funA, funB };
I have a file that relies on an exported const variable. This variable is set to true but if ever needed can be set to false manually to prevent some behavior if downstream services request it.
I am not sure how to mock a const variable in Jest so that I can change it's value for testing the true and false conditions.
Example:
//constants module
export const ENABLED = true;
//allowThrough module
import { ENABLED } from './constants';
export function allowThrough(data) {
return (data && ENABLED === true)
}
// jest test
import { allowThrough } from './allowThrough';
import { ENABLED } from './constants';
describe('allowThrough', () => {
test('success', () => {
expect(ENABLED).toBE(true);
expect(allowThrough({value: 1})).toBe(true);
});
test('fail, ENABLED === false', () => {
//how do I override the value of ENABLED here?
expect(ENABLED).toBe(false) // won't work because enabled is a const
expect(allowThrough({value: 1})).toBe(true); //fails because ENABLED is still true
});
});
This example will work if you compile ES6 modules syntax into ES5, because in the end, all module exports belong to the same object, which can be modified.
import { allowThrough } from './allowThrough';
import { ENABLED } from './constants';
import * as constants from './constants';
describe('allowThrough', () => {
test('success', () => {
constants.ENABLED = true;
expect(ENABLED).toBe(true);
expect(allowThrough({ value: 1 })).toBe(true);
});
test('fail, ENABLED === false', () => {
constants.ENABLED = false;
expect(ENABLED).toBe(false);
expect(allowThrough({ value: 1 })).toBe(false);
});
});
Alternatively, you can switch to raw commonjs require function, and do it like this with the help of jest.mock(...):
const mockTrue = { ENABLED: true };
const mockFalse = { ENABLED: false };
describe('allowThrough', () => {
beforeEach(() => {
jest.resetModules();
});
test('success', () => {
jest.mock('./constants', () => mockTrue)
const { ENABLED } = require('./constants');
const { allowThrough } = require('./allowThrough');
expect(ENABLED).toBe(true);
expect(allowThrough({ value: 1 })).toBe(true);
});
test('fail, ENABLED === false', () => {
jest.mock('./constants', () => mockFalse)
const { ENABLED } = require('./constants');
const { allowThrough } = require('./allowThrough');
expect(ENABLED).toBe(false);
expect(allowThrough({ value: 1 })).toBe(false);
});
});
Unfortunately none of the posted solutions worked for me or to be more precise some did work but threw linting, TypeScript or compilation errors, so I will post my solution that both works for me and is compliant with current coding standards:
// constants.ts
// configuration file with defined constant(s)
export const someConstantValue = true;
// module.ts
// this module uses the defined constants
import { someConstantValue } from './constants';
export const someCheck = () => someConstantValue ? 'true' : 'false';
// module.test.ts
// this is the test file for module.ts
import { someCheck } from './module';
// Jest specifies that the variable must start with `mock`
const mockSomeConstantValueGetter = jest.fn();
jest.mock('./constants', () => ({
get someConstantValue() {
return mockSomeConstantValueGetter();
},
}));
describe('someCheck', () => {
it('returns "true" if someConstantValue is true', () => {
mockSomeConstantValueGetter.mockReturnValue(true);
expect(someCheck()).toEqual('true');
});
it('returns "false" if someConstantValue is false', () => {
mockSomeConstantValueGetter.mockReturnValue(false);
expect(someCheck()).toEqual('false');
});
});
There is another way to do it in ES6+ and jest 22.1.0+ thanks to getters and spyOn.
By default, you cannot spy on primitive types like boolean or number. You can though replace an imported file with your own mock. A getter method still acts like a primitive member but allows us to spy on it. Having a spy on our target member you can basically do with it whatever you want, just like with a jest.fn() mock.
Below an example
// foo.js
export const foo = true; // could be expression as well
// subject.js
import { foo } from './foo'
export default () => foo
// subject.spec.js
import subject from './subject'
jest.mock('./foo', () => ({
get foo () {
return true // set some default value
}
}))
describe('subject', () => {
const mySpy = jest.spyOn(subject.default, 'foo', 'get')
it('foo returns true', () => {
expect(subject.foo).toBe(true)
})
it('foo returns false', () => {
mySpy.mockReturnValueOnce(false)
expect(subject.foo).toBe(false)
})
})
Read more in the docs.
Thanks to #Luke I was able to expand on his answer for my needs. I had the requirements of:
Only mocking certain values in the file - not all
Running the mock only inside a single test.
Turns out that doMock() is like mock() but doesn't get hoisted. In addition requireActual() can be used to grab original data.
My config.js file - I need to mock only part of it
export const SOMETHING = 'blah'
export const OTHER = 'meh'
My test file
// import { someFunc } from 'some/file' // This won't work with doMock - see below
describe('My test', () => {
test('someFunc() does stuff', async () => {
// Here I mock the config file which gets imported somewhere deep in my code
jest.doMock('config.js', () => {
// Grab original
const originalModule = jest.requireActual('config')
// Return original but override some values
return {
__esModule: true, // Depends on your setup
...originalModule,
SOMETHING: 'boom!'
}
})
// Because `doMock` doesn't get hoisted we need to import the function after
const { someFunc } = await import(
'some/file'
)
// Now someFunc will use the original config values but overridden with SOMETHING=boom!
const res = await someFunc()
})
})
Depending on other tests you may also need to use resetModules() somewhere such as beforeAll or afterAll.
Docs:
doMock
requireActual
resetModules
Since we can't override/mock the value directly. we can use the below hack
// foo.js
export const foo = true; // could be expression as well
// spec file
import * as constants from './foo'
Object.defineProperty(constant, 'foo', {value: 1})
For functions:
Object.defineProperty(store, 'doOneThing', {value: jest.fn()})
For me the simplest solution was to redefine the imported object property, as decribed here:
https://flutterq.com/how-to-mock-an-exported-const-in-jest/
// foo.js
export const foo = true; // could be expression as well
// spec file
import * as constants from './foo'
Object.defineProperty(constant, 'foo', {value: 1, writable: true})
Facing the same issue, I found this blog post very useful, and much simpler than #cyberwombat use case :
https://remarkablemark.org/blog/2018/06/28/jest-mock-default-named-export/
// esModule.js
export default 'defaultExport';
export const namedExport = () => {};
// esModule.test.js
jest.mock('./esModule', () => ({
__esModule: true, // this property makes it work
default: 'mockedDefaultExport',
namedExport: jest.fn(),
}));
import defaultExport, { namedExport } from './esModule';
defaultExport; // 'mockedDefaultExport'
namedExport; // mock function
The most common scenario I needed was to mock a constant used by a class (in my case, a React component but it could be any ES6 class really).
#Luke's answer worked great for this, it just took a minute to wrap my head around it so I thought I'd rephrase it into a more explicit example.
The key is that your constants need to be in a separate file that you import, so that this import itself can be stubbed/mocked by jest.
The following worked perfectly for me.
First, define your constants:
// src/my-component/constants.js
const MY_CONSTANT = 100;
export { MY_CONSTANT };
Next, we have the class that actually uses the constants:
// src/my-component/index.jsx
import { MY_CONSTANT } from './constants';
// This could be any class (e.g. a React component)
class MyComponent {
constructor() {
// Use the constant inside this class
this.secret = MY_CONSTANT;
console.log(`Current value is ${this.secret}`);
}
}
export default MyComponent
Lastly, we have the tests. There's 2 use cases we want to handle here:
Mock the generate value of MY_CONSTANT for all tests inside this file
Allow the ability for a specific test to further override the value of MY_CONSTANT for that single test
The first part is acheived by using jest.mock at the top of your test file.
The second is acheived by using jest.spyOn to further spy on the exported list of constants. It's almost like a mock on top of a mock.
// test/components/my-component/index.js
import MyComponent from 'src/my-component';
import allConstants from 'src/my-component/constants';
jest.mock('src/my-component/constants', () => ({
get MY_CONSTANT () {
return 30;
}
}));
it('mocks the value of MY_CONSTANT', () => {
// Initialize the component, or in the case of React, render the component
new MyComponent();
// The above should cause the `console.log` line to print out the
// new mocked value of 30
});
it('mocks the value of MY_CONSTANT for this test,', () => {
// Set up the spy. You can then use any jest mocking method
// (e.g. `mockReturnValue()`) on it
const mySpy = jest.spyOn(allConstants, 'MY_CONSTANT', 'get')
mySpy.mockReturnValue(15);
new MyComponent();
// The above should cause the `console.log` line to print out the
// new mocked value of 15
});
One of the way for mock variables is the follow solution:
For example exists file ./constants.js with constants:
export const CONSTATN_1 = 'value 1';
export const CONSTATN_2 = 'value 2';
There is also a file of tests ./file-with-tests.spec.js in which you need to do mock variables.
If you need to mock several variables you need to use jest.requireActual to use the real values of the remaining variables.
jest.mock('./constants', () => ({
...jest.requireActual('./constants'),
CONSTATN_1: 'mock value 1',
}));
If you need to mock all variables using jest.requireActual is optional.
jest.mock('./constants', () => ({
CONSTATN_1: 'mock value 1',
CONSTATN_2: 'mock value 2'
}));
Instead of Jest and having trouble with hoisting etc. you can also just redefine your property using "Object.defineProperty"
It can easily be redefined for each test case.
This is a pseudo code example based on some files I have:
From localization file:
export const locale = 'en-US';
In another file we are using the locale:
import { locale } from 'src/common/localization';
import { format } from 'someDateLibrary';
// 'MMM' will be formatted based on locale
const dateFormat = 'dd-MMM-yyyy';
export const formatDate = (date: Number) => format(date, dateFormat, locale)
How to mock in a test file
import * as Localization from 'src/common/localization';
import { formatDate } from 'src/utils/dateUtils';
describe('format date', () => {
test('should be in Danish format', () => {
Object.defineProperty(Localization, 'locale', {
value: 'da-DK'
});
expect(formatDate(1589500800000)).toEqual('15-maj-2020');
});
test('should be in US format', () => {
Object.defineProperty(Localization, 'locale', {
value: 'en-US'
});
expect(formatDate(1589500800000)).toEqual('15-May-2020');
});
});
in typescript, you can not overwrite constant value but; you can overwrite the getter function for it.
const mockNEXT_PUBLIC_ENABLE_HCAPTCHAGetter = jest.fn();
jest.mock('lib/constants', () => ({
...jest.requireActual('lib/constants'),
get NEXT_PUBLIC_ENABLE_HCAPTCHA() {
return mockNEXT_PUBLIC_ENABLE_HCAPTCHAGetter();
},
}));
and in the test use as
beforeEach(() => {
mockNEXT_PUBLIC_ENABLE_HCAPTCHAGetter.mockReturnValue('true');
});
Thank you all for the answers.
In my case this was a lot simpler than all the suggestions here
// foo.ts
export const foo = { bar: "baz" };
// use-foo.ts
// this is just here for the example to have a function that consumes foo
import { foo } from "./foo";
export const getFoo = () => foo;
// foo.spec.ts
import "jest";
import { foo } from "./foo";
import { getFoo } from "./use-foo";
test("foo.bar should be 'other value'", () => {
const mockedFoo = foo as jest.Mocked<foo>;
mockedFoo.bar = "other value";
const { bar } = getFoo();
expect(bar).toBe("other value"); // success
expect(bar).toBe("baz"); // fail
};
Hope this helps someone.
../../../common/constant/file (constants file path)
export const Init = {
name: "",
basePath: "",
description: "",
thumbnail: "",
createdAt: "",
endDate: "",
earnings: 0,
isRecurring: false,
status: 0,
};
jest file
jest.mock('../../../common/constant/file',()=>({
get Init(){
return {isRecurring: true}
}
}))
it('showActionbutton testing',()=>{
const {result} = renderHook(() => useUnsubscribe())
expect(result.current.showActionButton).toBe(true)
})
index file
import {Init} from ../../../common/constant/file
const useUsubscribe(){
const showActionButton = Init.isRecurring
return showActionButton
}
I solved this by initializing constants from ContstantsFile.js in reducers. And placed it in redux store. As jest.mock was not able to mock the contstantsFile.js
constantsFile.js
-----------------
const MY_CONSTANTS = {
MY_CONSTANT1: "TEST",
MY_CONSTANT2: "BEST",
};
export defualt MY_CONSTANTS;
reducers/index.js
-----------------
import MY_CONST from "./constantsFile";
const initialState = {
...MY_CONST
}
export const AbcReducer = (state = initialState, action) => {.....}
ABC.jsx
------------
import { useSelector } from 'react-redux';
const ABC = () => {
const const1 = useSelector(state) => state. AbcReducer. MY_CONSTANT1:
const const2 = useSelector(state) => state. AbcReducer. MY_CONSTANT2:
.......
Now we can easily mock the store in test.jsx and provide the values to constant that we want.
Abc.text.jsx
-------------
import thunk from 'redux-thunk';
import configureMockStore from 'redux-mock-store';
describe('Abc mock constants in jest', () => {
const mockStore = configureMockStore([thunk]);
let store = mockStore({
AbcReducer: {
MY_CONSTANT1 ="MOCKTEST",
MY_CONSTANT2 = "MOCKBEST",
}
});
test('your test here', () => { .....
Now when the test runs it will always pick the constant value form mock store.
