Clean like gopher

Clean like gopher is inspired from database_cleaner. The purpose of clean like gopher is to ensure that the DB is clean between tests.

TODO:

• Add transaction for mysql
• Implement redis cleaner
• Use ginkgo for test
• Write better tests for different strategies

Supported drivers

• mysql
• postgres
• redis - in future development
• mongo

Install:

  go get "github.com/tborisova/clean_like_gopher"

Usage

  import 'github.com/tborisova/clean_like_gopher'
  ...
  
  options := map[string]string{"host": "localhost", "dbName": "test", "port": "27017"}
  m := clean_like_gopher.NewCleaningGopher("mongo", options) // clean collection 'test' using mongo driver and truncation strategy
  ...
  dirty db
  ...
  options = map[string]string{"strategy": "truncation"}
  m.Clean(options) // clean all tables with truncation
  m.Close() // after all specs or after each spec

Examples:

• clean-like-gopher-example

Availabe strategies:

• For mysql/postgres:
  • truncation(default), deletion, transaction (in future development)
• For mongo:
  • truncation - default
• For redis:
  • truncation - default

When using 'transaction' strategy you need to call Start() before the tests because it needs to know to open up a transaction.

Available options for truncation strategies:

• except: ["people", "animals"] - deletes all tables except 'people' and 'animals'
• only: ['people', 'animals'] - deletes only 'people' and 'animals' tables
