Creating a mock for the overwolf object with function mocks

overwolf-mock-creation.md

1. open any overwolf window
2. add stringify version that includes functions

function JSONstringifyWithFuncs(obj) {
  Object.prototype.toJSON = function() {
  var sobj = {}, i;
for (i in this)
if (this.hasOwnProperty(i))
sobj[i] = typeof this[i] == 'function' ?
this[i].toString() : this[i];

return sobj;
};
Array.prototype.toJSON = function() {
var sarr = [], i;
for (i = 0 ; i < this.length; i++)
sarr.push(typeof this[i] == 'function' ? this[i].toString() : this[i]);

return sarr;
};

var str = JSON.stringify(obj);

delete Object.prototype.toJSON;
delete Array.prototype.toJSON;

return str;
}

3. run with overwolf object JSONstringifyWithFuncs(overwolf)
4. copy output to JSON file (removing leading and trailing quote)
5. run regExp replace /"function.*["|$]/g , replacing with your favorite spy/stub/mock base function ( e.g.sinon.stub() )
6. adapt as needed

TODO: create configurable script that does this and enables to configure specific mock implementations for updating
