Ruff Driver Runner

The ruff-app-runner module provides you a facility for Ruff driver developers to run driver on their development machine. You may include this module with require('ruff-driver-runner');

var assert = require('assert');

var runner = require('ruff-driver-runner');
var when = require('ruff-mock').when;

export['test should work well'] = function(done) {
    runner.run('../', function(error, context) {
        var inputs = context.inputs;
        var device = context.device;

        var gpio = inputs['gpio'];

        when(gpio)
            .read(Function)
            .then(function (callback) {
                callback(undefined, 1);
            });

        gpio.read(function (error, value) {
            assert.ifError(error);
            assert.equal(value, 1);
        });
    }
}

require('test').run(exports);

Ruff driver runner creates a virtual runtime built with ruff-mock, which allows developers to:

• Retrive mock interface

The second parameter of run function of driver runner is context. Where the interface could be retrived from

var gpio = context.inputs['gpio'];

The name of the reference for context.inputs should be same with the name described in driver.json.

Please checkout Ruff Mock for more information.

runner.run(driverPath, runCallback)

• driverPath refer to your driver path which contains driver.json.
• runCallback will run once the virtual runtime has been created and your attach function has been invoked.
