A Bats test-suite that validates if a tldr-pages client is compatible with the client specifications set out in the tldr repository.
You can see a summary of each test, including links to the relevant sections of the specification in the tldr.bats file.
| Client | Compliance |
|---|---|
| tealdeer |  |
| tldr-c-client |  |
| tldr-node-client |  |
| tldr-python-client |  |
| tlrc |  |
This is for if you want to check the results for a particular client, or are a maintainer of a tldr-pages client and want to run your development build against our compliance test suite.
Run the validate task to test the tldr command found on your path:
make validateAlternatively, you can test any arbitrary binary by specifying the PATH_TO_TLDR_CLIENT environment variable:
PATH_TO_TLDR_CLIENT={{path/to/binary}} make validateThere are also the validate-level-2 and validate-level-3 tasks to check if clients adhere to optional parts of the spec.
You can execute the tests for a predefined tldr-pages client even if you don't have it installed, so long as the Dockerfile is available for the client.
Check the contents of the dockerfiles/ directory, and run the CLIENT={{client}} docker-validate command, populating the CLIENT environment variable with the client to test. For example:
CLIENT=tldr-c-client make docker-validateYou can also run docker-validate-level-2 or docker-validate-level-3 to check optional parts of the spec.
