How to set values for config’s of my Handler in tests?

Question

My Handler has 4 configuration variables:

  config :base_url
  config :details_path
  config :create_path
  config :token

I know them and my lita_config file, but to test my Handler, I need to set values for them in my specs too, as I can do this?

Answer 1

Settings files are circumstantial. If in all your tests you are going to use them, you can create a file confi.rb, or even a fixture for him and make a require in your specs. If, for a test or other, use a let(:config) or a before :each.

Answer 2

In rspec for the set of settings set for a Lita Handler can be done using registry. For example, in my case, my Handler calls dpeauth, to set these 3 configuration variables we can do so:

registry.config.handlers.dpeauth.base_url = 'valor'
registry.config.handlers.dpeauth.details_path = 'valor'
registry.config.handlers.dpeauth.create_path = 'valor'
registry.config.handlers.dpeauth.token = 'valor'
