+# node-assert-plus
+
+This library is a super small wrapper over node's assert module that has two
+things: (1) the ability to disable assertions with the environment variable
+NODE_NDEBUG, and (2) some API wrappers for argument testing. Like
+`assert.string(myArg, 'myArg')`. As a simple example, most of my code looks
+like this:
+
+ var assert = require('assert-plus');
+
+ function fooAccount(options, callback) {
+ assert.object(options, 'options');
+ assert.number(options.id, 'options.id);
+ assert.bool(options.isManager, 'options.isManager');
+ assert.string(options.name, 'options.name');
+ assert.arrayOfString(options.email, 'options.email');
+ assert.func(callback, 'callback');
+
+ // Do stuff
+ callback(null, {});
+ }
+
+# API
+
+All methods that *aren't* part of node's core assert API are simply assumed to
+take an argument, and then a string 'name' that's not a message; `AssertionError`
+will be thrown if the assertion fails with a message like:
+
+ AssertionError: foo (string) is required
+ at test (/home/mark/work/foo/foo.js:3:9)
+ at Object.<anonymous> (/home/mark/work/foo/foo.js:15:1)
+ at Module._compile (module.js:446:26)
+ at Object..js (module.js:464:10)
+ at Module.load (module.js:353:31)
+ at Function._load (module.js:311:12)
+ at Array.0 (module.js:484:10)
+ at EventEmitter._tickCallback (node.js:190:38)
+
+from:
+
+ function test(foo) {
+ assert.string(foo, 'foo');
+ }
+
+There you go. You can check that arrays are of a homogenous type with `Arrayof$Type`:
+
+ function test(foo) {
+ assert.arrayOfString(foo, 'foo');
+ }
+
+You can assert IFF an argument is not `undefined` (i.e., an optional arg):
+
+ assert.optionalString(foo, 'foo');
+
+Lastly, you can opt-out of assertion checking altogether by setting the
+environment variable `NODE_NDEBUG=1`. This is pseudo-useful if you have
+lots of assertions, and don't want to pay `typeof ()` taxes to v8 in
+production.
+
+The complete list of APIs is:
+
+* assert.bool
+* assert.buffer
+* assert.func
+* assert.number
+* assert.object
+* assert.string
+* assert.arrayOfBool
+* assert.arrayOfFunc
+* assert.arrayOfNumber
+* assert.arrayOfObject
+* assert.arrayOfString
+* assert.optionalBool
+* assert.optionalBuffer
+* assert.optionalFunc
+* assert.optionalNumber
+* assert.optionalObject
+* assert.optionalString
+* assert.optionalArrayOfBool
+* assert.optionalArrayOfFunc
+* assert.optionalArrayOfNumber
+* assert.optionalArrayOfObject
+* assert.optionalArrayOfString
+* assert.AssertionError
+* assert.fail
+* assert.ok
+* assert.equal
+* assert.notEqual
+* assert.deepEqual
+* assert.notDeepEqual
+* assert.strictEqual
+* assert.notStrictEqual
+* assert.throws
+* assert.doesNotThrow
+* assert.ifError
+
