Tests

Run the test suite by doing:

$ npm test

Development

denymount wraps a native command line utility that must be built with Xcode 7.

If you make edits to the executable source make sure to build it afterwards with:

$ npm run build

This will build and place the compiled executable in the bin folder.

The command line utility can be used directly as follows:

$ ./bin/denymount diskName

The programme will keep running until you hit ctrl+C (or SIGINT/SIGTERM if sent to background).
