boobst Installation

[farooqsaeedfs]

I am getting the following error while executing this command:

$ npm install boobst
npm WARN install Refusing to install boobst as a dependency of itself

'npm install mocha' works fine. But when I am running 'npm test' it's giving me following errors:

7. set "after each" hook:
   Error: timeout of 1000ms exceeded. Ensure the done() callback is being call
   ed in this test.

8. zn #zn test simple switching should properly switch between namespaces:

Hello! Tests have not worked for a long time because I can not find any useful cache' server.
But did you get boobst directory in your node_modules directory with two main files boobst.js and boobst.m?

[farooqsaeedfs]

I just did. So I copied paste boobst directory in node_module along with folders 'assert' and 'mocha' and both of these folders got their own node_module.

And in boobst directory I got package.json, boobst.m, boobst.js and test.js. In test.js I wrote the following code:

var BoobstSocket = require('boobst').BoobstSocket
, assert = require('assert')
;

var bs = new BoobstSocket({
host: 'my Server IP'
, port: 6666
});
bs.connect(function(err){
var test = 'test';
// 'this' refers to the socket itself
this.zn('MY NameSpace').set('^test', [1, 2], test).get('^test', [1, 2], function(err, data) {
assert.equal(data, test, 'should be "' + test + '"');
this.disconnect();
});
});
bs.set('a', '2')
.set('b', '2')
.execute('testbst^boobst' /_program body: "w a_b q"/, function(err, data) {
if (err) { console.log(err); return; }
console.log(data === '4' ? 'successfully executed': 'something wrong');
});

testbst^boobst This tag and routine exists and contains following code in it:
S ^TMP("FAR",1)="Test"
w a*b q

I am trying to run this test,js using 'npm test'. I am receiving same error as I stated above and my global ^TMP("FAR",1) not effecting at all.

[farooqsaeedfs]

By the way I changed test.config.js as well; as per my host and ns.

[farooqsaeedfs]

Thanks for the response I was able to run using 'express'. I can see the output now.

So for now it works as expected? Or there are still some questions?

[farooqsaeedfs]

The issue I am facing right now is passing parameters to a tag in a routine. The code I am calling is

this.set('a', '2')
.set('b', '2')
.execute('testbst^boobst', function(err, data) {
if (err) { console.log(err); return; }
console.log(data === '4' ? 'successfully executed': 'something wrong');
});

And the error I am getting is:
[Error:
S ^TMP("FAR",2)="Test"$J":"_a
^
testbst+1^boobst *a]

Seems like values are not passing to the tag.
