Helpers for testing RethinkDB apps with AVA

Why?

• Initializes and cleans up the database.
• Each test worker gets its own isolated database.
• Easily seed the database and configure it.

Install

npm install thinkable --save-dev

Usage

import test from 'ava';
import r from 'rethinkdb';
import { init, cleanup } from 'thinkable';
 
const seed = {
    dbOne : {
        tableA : [
            { name : 'Jane Doe' }
        ]
    },
    dbTwo : {
        tableA : [
            { color : 'blue' }
        ]
    }
};
 
test.before(init(seed));
test.after.always(cleanup);
 
test('does some stuff', async (t) => {
    const conn = await r.connect({
        port : t.context.dbPort
    });
    console.log(await r.dbList().run(conn));
});
