08:59 <Intelo> While doing integration test for api testing. What is a good way to test? a) make api call inside test code and also directly check (fetch/select) entries in database those were supposed to be created by that api cal. b) in response of real api call, always return json of objects created in database (e.g user created, even if its a GET call and 200

08:59 <Intelo> response might have been ok, just to test what was created, I should return what was inserted / updated in database for each api call c) try to check one api with another api (this might not always be possible). e.g test create user api with user profile api. If user was created successfully, then profile api should return correct data. c) any

08:59 <Intelo> other?

09:45 <nakilon> Intelo I go for C

09:46 <nakilon> in my opinion you should do only unit-testing and functional/integration testing, not anything in between

09:47 <nakilon> so you use as high level methods as possible, i.e. just use api calls and don't access db at all

09:48 <nakilon> on my prevprevious job I had to spend half of the time fixing legacy tests that were not made in that in mind, spent time stupidly on throwing out sql requests, wrongly places procedures of connecting to db, etc.

09:58 <Intelo> nakilon ok so lets say I am testing a user registration api. It has name, email, address. How will I verify that the user actually got registered and the data was saved in the database?

11:57 <nakilon> Intelo try to log in?

13:09 <sagax> what you think about this? https://termbin.com/sxk2

13:09 <sagax> it's for dot-notation from yaml config file

13:34 <adam12> sagax: It looks OK generally, as long as you're not calling preload in a hotpath. Defining methods dynamically clears some caches in the Ruby VM, and in a hotpath it's absolute performance murder.

13:35 <adam12> sagax: Instead of defining on `self` (as cls), you could always define them inside a module and include that module too. It might help keep them organized.

14:42 <sagax> thanks

15:12 <Intelo> nakilon login will not tell the address

15:38 <steerpike> hi, can i ask questions about rspec in here?

15:42 <steerpike> i get these errors https://paste.ee/r/qIPy5 when running the example here: https://www.tutorialspoint.com/rspec/rspec_introduction.htm

15:42 <steerpike> is it an issue with the version?

15:42 <steerpike> i'm using ruby 2.6.4

15:55 <steerpike> is there a better place to ask questions?

16:07 <havenwood> steerpike: that looks like a smart quote with `class”` in the error?

16:08 <havenwood> steerpike: show the whole file?

16:08 <steerpike> it's on the tutorialspoint page near the bottom

16:09 <havenwood> >> 'class”'.grapheme_clusters.last.ord

16:09 <havenwood> #=> 8221

16:09 <havenwood> >> 'class”'.grapheme_clusters.last.bytes

16:09 <havenwood> #=> [226, 128, 157]

16:09 <steerpike> i don't know what that means

16:10 <havenwood> >> 8221.chr(Encoding::UTF_8)

16:10 <havenwood> #=> "”"

16:10 <havenwood> steerpike: There's a UTF-8 character for a smart quote, and one is following the word "class" in your code.

16:11 <havenwood> I suspect smart quotes are being used where actual quotes were intended, so `class` is being evaluated as code rather than String content.

16:11 <steerpike> oh.. the context!

16:11 <steerpike> success!

16:11 <steerpike> thank you

16:11 <havenwood> no prob, you're welcome

16:11 <havenwood> happy coding!

16:11 <steerpike> :)

16:14 <adam12> Those dang smart quotes.

16:21 <kaleido> not so smart after all, amirite?

16:24 <adam12> LOL

16:24 <adam12> Smartly affecting copy-pasta for everyone everywhere.

17:07 <dviola> anyone familiar with roda here?

17:08 <adam12> dviola: yes

17:14 <dviola> adam12: I'm trying to make some GET requests where I'll be passing some "Authorization:Bearer" tokens, I'm unsure how to read those from roda

17:15 <dviola> e.g. http get http://localhost:3000/foo/bar 'Authorization:Bearer token'

17:20 <adam12> dviola: If you have an object `r` inside your routing tree, you could probably do `r.get_header("Authorization")`

17:22 <dviola> adam12: interesting, let me try that

17:22 <adam12> dviola: `r` is just the current request, so anywhere in your routing tree that's in the context of Roda, you could do `request.get_header("Authorization")` as well. But `r` is the common shorthand.

17:23 <dviola> makes sense

17:30 <dviola> I get nil

17:33 <dviola> I get it now with r.get_header("HTTP_AUTHORIZATION") after adding plugin :request_headers

17:33 <adam12> dviola: Ah. Yes, Rack sometimes mutates header names.

17:34 <adam12> dviola: If you use request_headers plugin, the syntax is nicer, since you can use `r.headers`.

17:40 <dviola> env['HTTP_AUTHORIZATION'] also works

17:40 <dviola> nice

17:40 <dviola> adam12: thanks a lot :)

17:40 <adam12> dviola: cheers.

17:40 <adam12> I sometimes look at `env` to see what the header name is

18:26 <nakilon> infernix log in and call some "look into my profile" http api endponit that should show the address

18:38 <adam12> Progress on yjit is looking interesting.

18:40 <adam12> Variable width allocation merged too.. interesting.

22:47 <dviola> I'm trying to keep the JWT.decode separate from the rest of the code: https://gist.github.com/diegoviola/79c348f2cf1e4396cfcaaf8876752dbf#file-app-rb-L7-L13

22:47 <dviola> and not exactly sure how to refactor it

22:47 <dviola> would appreciate some advice

22:48 <dviola> it's some roda code

22:48 <adam12> dviola: Lots of ways.

22:48 <dviola> I don't want to do the jwt decode every time I call a route

22:49 <dviola> adam12: oh, hmm

22:49 <adam12> dviola: Outside of route block, you can just define a regular method. That's available inside the route block.

22:49 <dviola> adam12: oh

22:49 <adam12> dviola: I'd just call it at the top of the routing tree.

22:49 <adam12> dviola: auth_token = ...; JWT.decode ...;

22:50 <adam12> dviola: That is, if every route is authenticated.

22:50 <dviola> adam12: oh! that's cool

22:50 <dviola> thanks

22:50 <adam12> You can use the error plugin to catch JWT::DecodeError, and then render your message there in one place.

22:51 <adam12> plugin :error_handler do |ex; case ex; when JWT::DecodeError; response.redirect("unauthorized", 401);

22:52 <adam12> Gotta run. bbiaf.

22:52 <dviola> thanks
