How to manage !effect or !custom with simple property.

[angelozerr]

I'm writing a tern plugin for jasmine https://github.com/angelozerr/tern-jasmine

I can manage this case :

expect(true).  // here Ctrl+Space must shows not, toBeDefined, etc

expect is a function which returns a custom function (because jasmine matchers can be dynamic).

"expect": {
      "!type": "fn(value: ?) -> !custom:jasmineExpect",
      "!doc": "Expectations are built with the function expect which takes a value, called the actual. It is chained with a Matcher function, which takes the expected value."
    },

See https://github.com/angelozerr/tern-jasmine/blob/master/jasmine.js#L146

The not matcher must return the matchers list too like expect function (`not', 'toBeDefined', etc, So I have written :

"not": {
          "!type": "!custom:jasmineExpect",

But as not matcher is a property and not a function, it doesn't work.

I would like to manage that :

expect(true).not.  // here Ctrl+Space must shows not, toBeDefined, etc

@marijnh have you an idea how to I could manage not case?

What does not hold, then? Is it a getter property? If it's not a function, Tern can currently not associate effects with it.

[angelozerr]

not is a simple property. That's why I have created an issue for that : associate an effects with a property.

I have fixed my problem by writing my JSON Type Defitnition with an other mean and it works https://github.com/angelozerr/tern-jasmine/blob/master/jasmine.js#L47
