Transparently overrides @googlecloud/pub-sub for local testing
npm install google-pubsub-mock``js
const mock = require('google-pubsub-mock')
const mockInstance = mock.setUp({
PubSub: // the PubSub reference you're using ,
sinonSandbox: // (optional) sinon sandbox instance you're using,
topics: { // Topics and their subscriptions
"topicname":{,
subscriptions: [subscriptionName]
}
}
});
//publish shorthand function
mockInstance.publish(topic, message, attributes);
//helper for testing multiple delivery attempts
mockInstance.retryMostRecentPublish()
//use sinon features
mockInstance.publish.called //publish is a sinon stub
mockInstance.ack.called //ack is a sinon stub and the same one is added to all messages
mockInstance.sinonSandbox.restore() //clean up the mock, returns PubSub to its previous state.
mockInstance.clearState() //remove all state created by subscriptions and messages to avoid affecting another test suite while reusing one setup
`
if PubSub reference is not provided, require("@google-cloud/pubsub") is called. IF dependency versions matched and got deduplicated in node_modules, it should get the same instance, but that's generally not guaranteed (and not stable long term in my experience)
Your code might store references to the topic or subscription objects. That's why it is recommended to call setUp only once and use clearState before or after each test
Supports versions 0.23.0 and above (until another breaking change. Please report an issue if you're having trouble)
Replaces PubSub key exported from the @google-cloud/pubsub package only. Direct use of other classes in there is not mocked
uses sinon stubs
Other methods are not yet mocked and will run the actual implementation, which you'll notice from the errors you'd be getting form @googlecloud/pubsub`
