FactoryBot::NamespacedFactories
Affordances for applying Domain Driven design while using FactoryBot
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'factory_bot-namespaced_factories'
And then execute:
$ bundle install
Usage
See:
- https://github.com/thoughtbot/factory_bot/issues/199
- https://github.com/thoughtbot/factory_bot/commit/652818bd1701db67ea03cd062c8259cd7fb37807
There are two main use-cases for Namespaced Factories:
- Sharing Factories from an Engine or Gem
- Decomposing an application using domain driven design
Example User Factory
# spec/factories/categories.rb
FactoryBot.define do
factory :category do
name { "Classics" }
end
end
# movies/spec/factories/categories.rb
FactoryBot.define do
with_namespace(:Movies) do
factory :category do
name { "Emmy Winners" }
end
end
end
# movies/spec/category_spec.rb
category = FactoryBot.build(:category)
expect(category).to be_kind_of(Movies::Category)
# spec/category_spec.rb
category = FactoryBot.build(:category)
expect(category).to be_kind_of(Category)
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
