feat: add unit tests for the framework

[sniperadmin]

This PR should do the following:

• [x] setup jest for the framework
• [x] Add some test cases as well as TDD cases for missing features
• [x] Add workflow for automated test coverage
• [x] Add Typescript support

[Kinrany]

Thanks for the PR!

Could you add some motivation for it? I'm particularly interested in the code coverage integration and the specific tests you chose.

I want to err on the side of accepting all changes that improve something for the users and contributors, as long as the repo is small and easy to understand: vue-p5 is not a big or particularly well-maintained library, so I'd like to make sure anyone can fork it and change for their needs.

[sniperadmin]

Sounds perfect!

I do agree to think and adapt what's necessary to achieve your target, so let me try adding more cases, maybe using some functional programming and setup reusable modules I guess

I do still have lots of random thoughts in my mind, hopefully I can organize them here ;)

[Kinrany]

Let's take a step back. In what way would these changes improve the library for you?

For example, as a user I'd like to avoid typos in event names. So I might add TypeScript support so that all typos are caught at design time. This makes me as a contributor want to change how the build tooling is set up. So I might add a unit test to be confident that the build output still works in the browser.

To clarify, I'm not suggesting these specific changes. I want to know what part of the user/contributor experience will be improved by the changes you're suggesting.

[sniperadmin]

I actually do love your feedback because it helps me organizing my thoughts a bit I do agree of course on what's been stated in your comment.

let me mindmap my thoughts one more time and take those points into concideration

[sniperadmin]

Type-script has nailed it 🎉

New advantages:

• I discovered that the old way of re-exporting p5 doesn't work, so I injected it as a separate payload, we can use it in the sketch event (for now) like this:

  sketch(sk: any, p5: any): void {
  this.p5 = new p5()
  this.sk = sk
  }

  The test file explains the approach

• Based on the previous adv. I have reverted the old way of retrieving constants as it is not useful anymore. Now we can call the constants, Vectors and many other p5 methods and classes easily like this:

  sketch(sk: any, p5: any): void {
  const p5 = new p5()
  const pi = p5.PI  // 3.141592653589793
  }

The Pros and Cons.

Pros:

• Getting p5 as a separate arg in the sketch() method will let us use third party libs like p5.sound()
• Now we can use almost anything in p5, but need to complete test cases for that one

Cons

• We cannot say VueP5.something.. The user can use the original p5 itself as an argument in the sketch event

Next up:

• If this approach is granted, we can globalize the p5 across all the remaining events, so that we can use it in them: e.g.

  
  <template>
  <vue-p5 v-on="{setup, draw, keypressed}"></vue-p5>
  </template>

[Kinrany]

We cannot say VueP5.something.. The user can use the original p5 itself as an argument in the sketch event

This is a big cons: the p5 reexport is there specifically to expose p5 outside of a sketch context. Inside a sketch context the sketch object is a replacement for the p5 object.

[sniperadmin]

Good Call, I tried actually to use the previous reexport to call consts or something like p5.Vector, but got undefined, any thoughts around this?

if is it a buggy behavior with the reexport itself, how should we test that?

[Kinrany]

I never used it in any of the examples, so it may be broken indeed!

If it is, this is probably a build tooling issue. The test would have to use build output as a dependency and run an equivalent of

const VueP5 = require('vue-p5');
console.assert(VueP5);
console.assert(VueP5.p5);
console.assert(VueP5.p5.abs);

[sniperadmin]

Here is an issue if I tried to use the reexported p5:

sketch(sk: any): void {
  const p5 = new sk.p5()
}

TypeError: sk.p5 is not a constructor

      56 |       methods: {
      57 |         sketch(sk: any): void {
    > 58 |           const p5 = new sk.p5()
         |                     ^
      59 |         }
      60 |       }
      61 |     })
