Run Node.js files with a set timeout
npm install within-timeWithin-Time was made to facilitate handling time constraints when running Node.js files. Really, it's because I got tired of using my fans as an indicator of a broken recursive function.
With how small and focused in scope Within-Time is, I'd advise using good ol' npx to handle it.
npx within-time
Of course, sometimes it's nice to not have to write npx every time, or perhaps you want to alias for maximum convenience. In that case, install via yarn globally and you can simply run the command.
``
yarn global add within-time
within-time
You can also pass relative paths to the file
`
within-time test/scenarios/doesNotClose.js
`
within-time ./test/scenarios/doesNotClose.js
You can also pass directory paths!
`
within-time test/scenarios
- Nested directories
- Will need to consider resource limits, given nature of child_process.fork`
- Configure time constraint via cli
- Prettier outputting
- Relevant examples?
