onFeathersService

function

Subscribes to mocked server socket events to work as FeathersJS CRUD service.

`server.onFeathersService(name, fixtureStore, [options])`

Subscribes to mocked server socket events according to FeathersJS protocol. Uses fixture store [can-fixture.Store] as a resource storage.

var fixtureStore = fixture.store([
  {id: 1, title: 'One'},
  {id: 2, title: 'Two'},
  {id: 3, title: 'Three'}
], new canSet.Algebra({}));

server.onFeathersService("messages", fixtureStore})

Parameters

name {String}:
The name of Feathers service.
fixtureStore {Store()}:
A fixture store. See store for more details.
options {Object}:
Options, e.g. property name for id.

Use

Instantiate fixture store by calling store and provide FeathersJS service name:

var fixtureStore = fixture.store([
  {_id: 1, title: 'One'},
  {_id: 2, title: 'Two'},
  {_id: 3, title: 'Three'}
], new canSet.Algebra(canSet.props.id('_id')));
 *
mockServer.onFeathersService('messages', fixtureStore, {id: "_id"});

This will emulate FeathersJS server CRUD service.

Now from Feathers client app you can do:

// Import dependencies:
var io = require("socket.io-client");
var feathers = require('feathers/client');
var feathersSocketio = require('feathers-socketio/client');
var hooks = require('feathers-hooks');

// Configure Feathers client app:
var socket = io("http://api.my-feathers-server.com");
var app = feathers()
  .configure(hooks())
  .configure(feathersSocketio(socket));

// Create client Feathers service:
var messagesService = app.service('messages');

// Test:
messagesService.get(1).then(function(data){
  assert.deepEqual(data, {id: 1, title: 'One'}, 'get should receive an item');
});
