rewire
=====
**Dependency injection for node.js applications**.

rewire allows you to modify the behaviour of modules for better unit testing. You may

- provide mocks for other modules
- leak private variables
- override variables within the module
- inject your own scripts

rewire does **not** load the file and eval the contents to emulate node's require mechanism. In fact it uses node's own require to load the module. Thus your module behaves exactly the same in your test environment as under regular circumstances (except your modifications).

**Debugging is fully supported.**

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Installation
------------

```npm install rewire```

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Examples
--------

```javascript
var rewire = require("rewire"),
    rewiredModule;

// Default
////////////////////////////////
// rewire acts exactly like require when omitting all other params
rewire("./myModuleA.js") === require("./myModuleA.js"); // = true



// Mocks
////////////////////////////////
var mockedModuleB = {},
    mockedFs = {},
    mocks = {
        "fs": mockedFs,
        "path/to/moduleB.js": mockedModuleB
    };

// The rewired module will now use your mocks instead of fs and moduleB.js.
// Just make sure that the path is exactly as in myModuleA.js required.
rewiredModule = rewire("./myModuleA.js", mocks);



// Injections
////////////////////////////////
var injections = {
        console: {
            log: function () { /* be quiet */ }
        },
        process: { argv: ["someArgs"] },
        __filename: "some/other/dir"
    };

// This will inject
// var console = {log: function () { /* be quiet */ }};
// var process = {argv: ["someArgs"] };
// var __filename = "some/other/dir";
// at the bottom of the module.
// This way you can override private variables within the module
rewiredModule = rewire("./myModuleA.js", null, injections);

// You can also pass a script to inject
rewiredModule = rewire("./myModuleA.js", null, "console.log('hellooo');"); // prints "hellooo"



// Leaks
////////////////////////////////
var leaks = ["myPrivateVar1", "myPrivateVar2"];

// rewire exports variables under the special "__"-object.
rewiredModule = rewire("./myModuleA.js", null, null, leaks);
rewiredModule.__.myPrivateVar1; // returns former private myPrivateVar1
rewiredModule.__.myPrivateVar2; // returns former private myPrivateVar2



// Cache
////////////////////////////////
// By disabling the module cache the rewired module will not be cached.
// Any later require()-calls within other modules will now return the original
// module again instead of the rewired. Caching is enabled by default.
rewire("./myModuleA.js", null, null, null, false) !== require("./myModuleA.js"); // = true
```

##API

**rewire(***filename, mocks, injections, leaks, cache***)** 

- *{!String} filename*: Path to the module that shall be rewired. Use it exactly like require().
- *{Object} mocks (optional)*: An object with mocks. Keys should be the exactly the same like they're required in the target module. So if you write ```require("../../myModules/myModuleA.js")``` you need to pass ```{"../../myModules/myModuleA.js": myModuleAMock}```.
- *{Object|String} injections (optional)*: If you pass an object, all keys of the object will be ```var```s within the module. You can also eval a string. **Please note**: All scripts are injected at the end of the module. So if there is any code in your module that is executed during ```require()```, your injected variables will be undefined at this point. For example: passing ```{console: null}``` will cause all calls of ```console.log()``` to throw an exception if they're executed during ```require()```.
- *{Array<String>} leaks (optional)*: An array with variable names that should be exported. These variables are accessible via ```myModule.__```
- *{Boolean=true} cache (optional)*: Indicates whether the rewired module should be cached by node so subsequent calls of ```require()``` will return the rewired module. Further calls of ```rewire()``` will always overwrite the cache.
