# pretty-format |
|
|
|
Stringify any JavaScript value. |
|
|
|
- Serialize built-in JavaScript types. |
|
- Serialize application-specific data types with built-in or user-defined plugins. |
|
|
|
## Installation |
|
|
|
```sh |
|
$ yarn add pretty-format |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## Usage |
|
|
|
```js |
|
const {format: prettyFormat} = require('pretty-format'); // CommonJS |
|
``` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
import {format as prettyFormat} from 'pretty-format'; // ES2015 modules |
|
``` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
const val = {object: {}}; |
|
val.circularReference = val; |
|
val[Symbol('foo')] = 'foo'; |
|
val.map = new Map([['prop', 'value']]); |
|
val.array = [-0, Infinity, NaN]; |
|
|
|
console.log(prettyFormat(val)); |
|
/* |
|
Object { |
|
"array": Array [ |
|
-0, |
|
Infinity, |
|
NaN, |
|
], |
|
"circularReference": [Circular], |
|
"map": Map { |
|
"prop" => "value", |
|
}, |
|
"object": Object {}, |
|
Symbol(foo): "foo", |
|
} |
|
*/ |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## Usage with options |
|
|
|
```js |
|
function onClick() {} |
|
|
|
console.log(prettyFormat(onClick)); |
|
/* |
|
[Function onClick] |
|
*/ |
|
|
|
const options = { |
|
printFunctionName: false, |
|
}; |
|
console.log(prettyFormat(onClick, options)); |
|
/* |
|
[Function] |
|
*/ |
|
``` |

content: 'reset', |
|
prop: 'yellow', |
|
tag: 'cyan', |
|
value: 'green', |
|
}; |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## Usage with plugins |
|
|
|
The `pretty-format` package provides some built-in plugins, including: |
|
|
|
- `ReactElement` for elements from `react` |
|
- `ReactTestComponent` for test objects from `react-test-renderer` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
// CommonJS |
|
const React = require('react'); |
|
const renderer = require('react-test-renderer'); |
|
const {format: prettyFormat, plugins} = require('pretty-format'); |
|
|
|
const {ReactElement, ReactTestComponent} = plugins; |
|
``` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
// ES2015 modules and destructuring assignment |
|
import React from 'react'; |
|
import renderer from 'react-test-renderer'; |
|
import {plugins, format as prettyFormat} from 'pretty-format'; |
|
|
|
const {ReactElement, ReactTestComponent} = plugins; |
|
``` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
const onClick = () => {}; |
|
const element = React.createElement('button', {onClick}, 'Hello World'); |
|
|
|
const formatted1 = prettyFormat(element, { |
|
plugins: [ReactElement], |
|
printFunctionName: false, |
|
}); |
|
const formatted2 = prettyFormat(renderer.create(element).toJSON(), { |
|
plugins: [ReactTestComponent], |
|
printFunctionName: false, |
|
}); |
|
/* |
|
<button |
|
onClick=[Function] |
|
> |
|
Hello World |
|
</button> |
|
*/ |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## Usage in Jest |
|
|
|
For snapshot tests, Jest uses `pretty-format` with options that include some of its built-in plugins. For this purpose, plugins are also known as **snapshot serializers**. |
|
|
|
To serialize application-specific data types, you can add modules to `devDependencies` of a project, and then: |
|
|
|
In an **individual** test file, you can add a module as follows. It precedes any modules from Jest configuration. |
|
|
|
```js |
|
import serializer from 'my-serializer-module'; |
|
expect.addSnapshotSerializer(serializer); |
|
|
|
// tests which have `expect(value).toMatchSnapshot()` assertions |
|
``` |
|
|
|
For **all** test files, you can specify modules in Jest configuration. They precede built-in plugins for React, HTML, and Immutable.js data types. For example, in a `package.json` file: |
|
|
|
```json |
|
{ |
|
"jest": { |
|
"snapshotSerializers": ["my-serializer-module"] |
|
} |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## Writing plugins |
|
|
|
A plugin is a JavaScript object. |
|
|
|
If `options` has a `plugins` array: for the first plugin whose `test(val)` method returns a truthy value, then `prettyFormat(val, options)` returns the result from either: |
|
|
|
- `serialize(val, …)` method of the **improved** interface (available in **version 21** or later) |
|
- `print(val, …)` method of the **original** interface (if plugin does not have `serialize` method) |
|
|
|
### test |
|
|
|
Write `test` so it can receive `val` argument of any type. To serialize **objects** which have certain properties, then a guarded expression like `val != null && …` or more concise `val && …` prevents the following errors: |
|
|
|
- `TypeError: Cannot read property 'whatever' of null` |
|
- `TypeError: Cannot read property 'whatever' of undefined` |
|
|
|
For example, `test` method of built-in `ReactElement` plugin: |
|
|
|
```js |
|
const elementSymbol = Symbol.for('react.element'); |
|
const test = val => val && val.$$typeof === elementSymbol; |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Pay attention to efficiency in `test` because `pretty-format` calls it often. |
|
|
|
### serialize |
|
|
|
The **improved** interface is available in **version 21** or later. |
|
|
|
Write `serialize` to return a string, given the arguments: |
|
|
|
- `val` which “passed the test” |
|
- unchanging `config` object: derived from `options` |
|
- current `indentation` string: concatenate to `indent` from `config` |
|
- current `depth` number: compare to `maxDepth` from `config` |
|
- current `refs` array: find circular references in objects |
|
- `printer` callback function: serialize children |
|
|
|
### config |
|
|
|
<!-- prettier-ignore --> |
|
| key | type | description | |
|
| :------------------ | :-------- | :------------------------------------------------------ | |
|
| `callToJSON` | `boolean` | call `toJSON` method (if it exists) on objects | |
|
| `compareKeys` | `function`| compare function used when sorting object keys | |
|
| `colors` | `Object` | escape codes for colors to highlight syntax | |
|
| `escapeRegex` | `boolean` | escape special characters in regular expressions | |
|
| `escapeString` | `boolean` | escape special characters in strings | |
|
| `indent` | `string` | spaces in each level of indentation | |
|
| `maxDepth` | `number` | levels to print in arrays, objects, elements, and so on | |
|
| `min` | `boolean` | minimize added space: no indentation nor line breaks | |
|
| `plugins` | `array` | plugins to serialize application-specific data types | |
|
| `printFunctionName` | `boolean` | include or omit the name of a function | |
|
| `spacingInner` | `strong` | spacing to separate items in a list | |
|
| `spacingOuter` | `strong` | spacing to enclose a list of items | |
|
|
|
Each property of `colors` in `config` corresponds to a property of `theme` in `options`: |
|
|
|
- the key is the same (for example, `tag`) |
|
- the value in `colors` is a object with `open` and `close` properties whose values are escape codes from [ansi-styles](https://github.com/chalk/ansi-styles) for the color value in `theme` (for example, `'cyan'`) |
|
|
|
Some properties in `config` are derived from `min` in `options`: |
|
|
|
- `spacingInner` and `spacingOuter` are **newline** if `min` is `false` |
|
- `spacingInner` is **space** and `spacingOuter` is **empty string** if `min` is `true` |
|
|
|
### Example of serialize and test |
|
|
|
This plugin is a pattern you can apply to serialize composite data types. Side note: `pretty-format` does not need a plugin to serialize arrays. |
|
|
|
```js |
|
// We reused more code when we factored out a function for child items |
|
// that is independent of depth, name, and enclosing punctuation (see below). |
|
const SEPARATOR = ','; |
|
function serializeItems(items, config, indentation, depth, refs, printer) { |
|
if (items.length === 0) { |
|
return ''; |
|
} |
|
const indentationItems = indentation + config.indent; |
|
return ( |
|
config.spacingOuter + |
|
items |
|
.map( |
|
item => |
|
indentationItems + |
|
printer(item, config, indentationItems, depth, refs), // callback |
|
) |
|
.join(SEPARATOR + config.spacingInner) + |
|
(config.min ? '' : SEPARATOR) + // following the last item |
|
config.spacingOuter + |
|
indentation |
|
); |
|
} |
|
|
|
const plugin = { |
|
test(val) { |
|
return Array.isArray(val); |
|
}, |
|
serialize(array, config, indentation, depth, refs, printer) { |
|
const name = array.constructor.name; |
|
return ++depth > config.maxDepth |
|
? '[' + name + ']' |
|
: (config.min ? '' : name + ' ') + |
|
'[' + |
|
serializeItems(array, config, indentation, depth, refs, printer) + |
|
']'; |
|
}, |
|
}; |
|
``` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
const val = { |
|
filter: 'completed', |
|
items: [ |
|
{ |
|
text: 'Write test', |
|
completed: true, |
|
}, |
|
{ |
|
text: 'Write serialize', |
|
completed: true, |
|
}, |
|
], |
|
}; |
|
``` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
console.log( |
|
prettyFormat(val, { |
|
plugins: [plugin], |
|
}), |
|
); |
|
/* |
|
Object { |
|
"filter": "completed", |
|
"items": Array [ |
|
Object { |
|
"completed": true, |
|
"text": "Write test", |
|
}, |
|
Object { |
|
"completed": true, |
|
"text": "Write serialize", |
|
}, |
|
], |
|
} |
|
*/ |
|
``` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
console.log( |
|
prettyFormat(val, { |
|
indent: 4, |
|
plugins: [plugin], |
|
}), |
|
); |
|
/* |
|
Object { |
|
"filter": "completed", |
|
"items": Array [ |
|
Object { |
|
"completed": true, |
|
"text": "Write test", |
|
}, |
|
Object { |
|
"completed": true, |
|
"text": "Write serialize", |
|
}, |
|
], |
|
} |
|
*/ |
|
``` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
console.log( |
|
prettyFormat(val, { |
|
maxDepth: 1, |
|
plugins: [plugin], |
|
}), |
|
); |
|
/* |
|
Object { |
|
"filter": "completed", |
|
"items": [Array], |
|
} |
|
*/ |
|
``` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
console.log( |
|
prettyFormat(val, { |
|
min: true, |
|
plugins: [plugin], |
|
}), |
|
); |
|
/* |
|
{"filter": "completed", "items": [{"completed": true, "text": "Write test"}, {"completed": true, "text": "Write serialize"}]} |
|
*/ |
|
``` |
|
|
|
### print |
|
|
|
The **original** interface is adequate for plugins: |
|
|
|
- that **do not** depend on options other than `highlight` or `min` |
|
- that **do not** depend on `depth` or `refs` in recursive traversal, and |
|
- if values either |
|
- do **not** require indentation, or |
|
- do **not** occur as children of JavaScript data structures (for example, array) |
|
|
|
Write `print` to return a string, given the arguments: |
|
|
|
- `val` which “passed the test” |
|
- current `printer(valChild)` callback function: serialize children |
|
- current `indenter(lines)` callback function: indent lines at the next level |
|
- unchanging `config` object: derived from `options` |
|
- unchanging `colors` object: derived from `options` |
|
|
|
The 3 properties of `config` are `min` in `options` and: |
|
|
|
- `spacing` and `edgeSpacing` are **newline** if `min` is `false` |
|
- `spacing` is **space** and `edgeSpacing` is **empty string** if `min` is `true` |
|
|
|
Each property of `colors` corresponds to a property of `theme` in `options`: |
|
|
|
- the key is the same (for example, `tag`) |
|
- the value in `colors` is a object with `open` and `close` properties whose values are escape codes from [ansi-styles](https://github.com/chalk/ansi-styles) for the color value in `theme` (for example, `'cyan'`) |
|
|
|
### Example of print and test |
|
|
|
This plugin prints functions with the **number of named arguments** excluding rest argument. |
|
|
|
```js |
|
const plugin = { |
|
print(val) { |
|
return `[Function ${val.name || 'anonymous'} ${val.length}]`; |
|
}, |
|
test(val) { |
|
return typeof val === 'function'; |
|
}, |
|
}; |
|
``` |
|
|
|
```js |
|
const val = { |
|
onClick(event) {}, |
|
render() {}, |
|
}; |
|
|
|
prettyFormat(val, { |
|
plugins: [plugin], |
|
}); |
|
/* |
|
Object { |
|
"onClick": [Function onClick 1], |
|
"render": [Function render 0], |
|
} |
|
*/ |
|
|
|
prettyFormat(val); |
|
/* |
|
Object { |
|
"onClick": [Function onClick], |
|
"render": [Function render], |
|
} |
|
*/ |
|
``` |
|
|
|
This plugin **ignores** the `printFunctionName` option. That limitation of the original `print` interface is a reason to use the improved `serialize` interface, described above. |
|
|
|
```js |
|
prettyFormat(val, { |
|
plugins: [pluginOld], |
|
printFunctionName: false, |
|
}); |
|
/* |
|
Object { |
|
"onClick": [Function onClick 1], |
|
"render": [Function render 0], |
|
} |
|
*/ |
|
|
|
prettyFormat(val, { |
|
printFunctionName: false, |
|
}); |
|
/* |
|
Object { |
|
"onClick": [Function], |
|
"render": [Function], |
|
} |
|
*/ |
|
```
|
|
|
