Use buster-format to format objects about sinon HOT 6 CLOSED

one of the nice things about sinon was that it didn't have any external dependencies - at my work, every new dependency is heavily scrutinized and makes adoption of libraries difficult if they have any dependencies we're not already using. we also do not use package managers like npm - except for the ports managers provided with the os (in our case the os is freebsd).

are you sure buster provides enough value to raise the entry level for sinon by that much? i'm not saying that its definitely a showstopper for us but i'm going to have to justify it somehow so i wanted to hear your take on it.

The benefit is vastly improved output when assertions fail. The cost is small - sinon-1.3.0.js will bundle the dependency in a closure, so the only thing you'll notice is a slightly bigger file. On node, npm will install the dependency for you. If you get sinon for node without npm, you can simply skip the buster part, and sinon will gracefully work like before. Still worried?

it doesn't actually fail gracefully in node without buster. you're missing a try/catch around the require for buster. so... yes, still worried.

...although not too worried since you probably won't mind to add that.

oh my. It's supposed to fail gracefully. Thanks for finding that. I'll revise tonight.

thanks - crisis averted :)
