noflo-rdf-components

NoFlo components for processing RDF related content

Development

To manually run these components in a UI, perform the following.

Register this project globally

noflo-rdf-components$ npm link

Checkout noflo-server

$ git clone https://github.com/rdf-pipeline/noflo-server.git

From the noflo-server project directory run:

noflo-server$ npm link noflo-rdf-components

Add the noflo-server to the local path:

noflo-server$ npm link

Then run the noflo-server, choosing whatever unused port you want instead of 8097:

$ noflo-server --port 8097

NoFlo UI is then available in your browser at http://localhost:8097/

Testing

For testing, we are using the Mocha library with the Chai assertion library, and Sinon.JS spies and stubs. We are using the Istanbul library to track code coverage.

To get started the first time, install mocha and Istanbul if you have not already done so:

sudo npm install -g mocha
sudo npm install -g istanbul

Next, check out the noflo-rdf-components repository and install its dependent components:

git clone https://github.com/rdf-pipeline/noflo-rdf-components.git
cd noflo-rdf-components
npm install 

At this point, you are ready to run mocha:

cd noflo-rdf-components
mocha

This should execute the current test suite of tests, located in the noflo-rdf-components/tests directory. To run a single test:

mocha test/<test file>

To see the code coverage of the tests, run Istanbul and bring the results up in your preferred browser:

cd noflo-rdf-components
istanbul cover _mocha -- -R spec
open coverage/lcov-report/index.html 

For documentation on writing tests, please refer to the noflo-rdf-pipeline developer testing wiki.
