Not compatible with sinon@7.2.6 createSandbox (chain is not a function)

[mauron85]

Hi there,

I'm happy user of sinon-mongoose 2.2.1 and find it very usefull. It worked just fine until sinon 7.2.3, which was not compatible with created sandbox (sinon.createSandbox) but was compatible with default sandbox.

Starting version 7.2.6 sinon-mongoose is not compatible nor with default nor with created sanbox (sandbox.createSandbox).

I know there is #15 and also PR #19.

EDIT: added test for non default sandbox.

describe('using sinon createSandbox', function() {
    var sanbox = sinon.createSandbox();

    beforeEach(function() {
        sanbox.restore();
    });

    afterEach(function() {
        sanbox.verify();
    });

    it('should work mocking Model', function() {
        var BookMock = sanbox.mock(Book);

        BookMock.expects('find')
            .withArgs('SOME_ARGUMENTS')
            .chain('exec')
            .resolves('RESULT');

        Book.find('SOME_ARGUMENTS')
            .exec()
            .then(function(result) {
                assert.equal(result, 'RESULT');
            });
    });
});

It fails with error:

  2) sinon-mongoose
       using sinon sandbox
         should work mocking Model:
     TypeError: BookMock.expects(...).withArgs(...).chain is not a function
      at Context.<anonymous> (test/index.js:159:10)

The related PRs have been merged/closed. Are you still having an issue?

[mauron85]

Yes, it's still relevant. You can try against provided test, which is basically same as in your suite, but using sinon.createSandbox() instead of default one.

EDIT: I've updated issue. Removed claim about not working with default sandbox, because I must first check, if it's just sinon version incompatibility or if mongoose is involved too. However claim about not working with sinon.createSandbox() is valid.

Do you have any substitue of this method, until the issue will be solve ?

Not working with sinon 7.3.2 & sinon-mongoose 2.3.0

I am facing the same error with sinon-mongoose 7.3.2. I am a first-time of sinon-mongoose. What are the earlier versions of sinon-mongoose and sinon where they both work together? I would like to revert to them until maybe there is a solution.

Thank you for this library.
