npm install --save git+https://github.com/agilecontent/itaas-nodejs-tools.git#VERSION

Replace VERSION with the desired version from releases. The latest version is always recommended.

const uuid = require('uuid').v4;

let callId = uuid();

let logger = tools.createLogger();
let serviceLocator = tools.createServiceLocator();

let context = tools.createCallContext(callId, config, logger, serviceLocator);

Development

Developing on Linux is recommended, so you can run integration tests easily with Docker.

Testing

You can run all unit tests with this command:

npm run test-unit

To run all tests, including integration tests, use this command:

npm test

Debugging

Debugging tests can be done with the following script:

npm run test-debug

It will enable Node.js debugger and make it listen on port 5858. You can then use Visual Studio Code or another editor to debug.
