Shell commands

You can run shell commands from within your feature file to transform some datas with annotations, to do so you need first to define in the config an alias and afterwards you can simply "comment" the line before the line you want to transform with that alias. For instance let say @json calls behind the curtain jq, we could validate and format some json in our feature like so :

Feature: A Feature
  Description

  Scenario: A scenario to test
    Given a thing
    # @json
    """
    {
      "test": "test"
    }
    """

Config

Defaut config is to use 2 spaces to indent background and scenarios, 4 spaces for steps and 6 for table and docstring; feature description follows table and docstring indentation.

It's possible to override configuration by defining a .ghokin.yml file in the home directory or in the current directory where we are running the binary from :

indent:
  backgroundAndScenario: 4
  step: 6
  tableAndDocString: 8

aliases:
  json: "jq ."

Aliases key defined shell commands callable in comments as we discussed earlier.

It's possible to use environments variables instead of a static config file :

export GHOKIN_INDENT_BACKGROUNDANDSCENARIO=4
export GHOKIN_INDENT_STEP=6
export GHOKIN_INDENT_TABLEANDDOCSTRING=8
export GHOKIN_ALIASES='{"json":"jq ."}'
