hydro-dot

✓ formatter usage only - not a module import; run with hydro --formatter hydro-dot

✗ const dot = require('hydro-dot')

This package is a CLI formatter, not a library. Do not require or import it in code.

Installs hydro-dot and runs tests using the dot formatter from the command line.

// Install hydro and hydro-dot // npm install hydro hydro-dot // Write a test file (test.js): var hydro = require('hydro'); hydro.addFile('test/*.js'); // Run with dot formatter: // hydro --formatter hydro-dot // Example test: hydro.test('example', function(){ hydro.assert(true); });

Debug

Known issues

deprecatedhydro-dot is no longer maintained and works only with hydro 0.x. The hydro project itself appears inactive.

fix

Consider migrating to a modern test framework like Mocha or Jest, which have dot formatters built-in.

affects: >=0.0.0

gotchahydro-dot is not a JavaScript module; it must be used via the command line with hydro. Attempting to require('hydro-dot') will not work.

fix

Use it as a CLI formatter: hydro --formatter hydro-dot

affects: >=0.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error: Cannot find module 'hydro-dot'

Installed locally but not in the correct path, or hydro not picking up the formatter.

fix

Install hydro-dot as a devDependency and ensure you run hydro from the project root: npm install --save-dev hydro hydro-dot && hydro --formatter hydro-dot

TypeError: require(...) is not a function

Trying to use hydro-dot programmatically via require instead of as a CLI tool.

fix

Do not use require('hydro-dot'). Instead run the hydro CLI with --formatter flag.
