Installation

1. pip install django-jasmine

2. Add ‘django_jasmine’ to your settings.INSTALLED_APPS.

3. Add settings.JASMINE_TEST_DIRECTORY, containing the path to your javascript jasmine test files. Files.json should be in this directory and all test files should be in os.path.join(settings.JASMINE_TEST_DIRECTORY, ‘spec’) *

4. Makes sure you have properly defined a STATIC_URL.

5. Add all Javascript files (including jQuery, and any other libraries) to files.json

6. Add a urlconf to include(‘django_jasmine.urls’).

7. Visit the URL you’ve included in your urlconf to display Jasmine test results.

8. Add a corresponding tag from the Jasmine github repo to specify a version of Jasmine to test with. Otherwise the latest tag, currently v2.4.1, is loaded.

Jasmine is now loaded over cdn.rawgit.com. A very obvious error message will appear if Jasmine isn’t loaded correctly.

See the example_project directory for more information.

Template

If you wish to modify the jasmine index template for any reason (e.g. add a new jasmine reporter), you can create a jasmine/index.html template as follow:

{% extends "jasmine/base.html" %}

{% block jasmine_preload %}
    {# If you need to do any setup before dependencies in files.json are loaded (like define app namespace) #}
{% endblock %}

{% block jasmine_extra %}
    {# If you want to extend the default jasmineEnv config #}
{% endblock %}

{% block jasmine %}
    {# If you wish to rewrite the whole html runner script #}
{% endblock %}

Read templates/jasmine/base.html for the default config

Fixtures

jasmine-jquery allowing to add fixtures, you can set them in os.path.join(settings.JASMINE_TEST_DIRECTORY, ‘fixtures’). Then in your spec:

jasmine.getFixtures().fixturesPath = "/jasmine/fixtures/";
loadFixtures("template.html")

Debug

If you encounter some errors that isn’t obvious to debug, you can add “django_jasmine” to your loggers.

Integration with ./manage.py tests

To do so, I recommend using EnvJasmine, and use Fabric to run EnvJasmine after running manage.py tests

Todo

1. Keep improving django tests

2. Add Growl/notifyd notifications

3. Add more settings for more flexibility i.e. make a symbolic constant for cdn url.

4. Thoroughly test fixtures and jasmine-jquery features.

5. Improve README.

6. Use a more specific pattern matcher for the version url.

7. Improve error message when Jasmine fails to load over cdn.
