accounts-sandstorm-dev

This was written as a companion to kenton:accounts-sandstorm

It does two things for you:

1. Inserts fake Sandstorm user headers when the meteor app is running in dev mode, so you can develop your app outside of Sandstorm

2. Provides a handful of helper functions mainly for use in client integration tests to stub out the current user permissions

The package uses the debugOnly flag to prevent it from being included in the production deployment. This means that if you want the fake headers to be added when deployed to meteor.com (say for a quick demo or CI environment) you'll need to run meteor deploy with --debug.

Fake Headers in Dev Mode

You can control the values with environment variables, but defaults are also defined:

STUB_USERNAME='Dev User'

STUB_USER_ID='dev-user-id'

STUB_PERMISSIONS='owner'

Note: If you already had the browser open, clear your browser's local storage. Hard refreshing is not sufficient.

Test Helpers

The helper functions are:

// Run with x-sandstorm-permissions = 'permissions,go,here'
withPermissions(['permissions', 'go', 'here'], function() { ... });

// Run with x-sandstorm-permissions = 'owner'
withOwner(function() { ... });

// Run with x-sandstorm-permissions = ''
withNoPermissions(function { ...});
