Overview

This package provides shared functionality used across all @sa11y packages. It includes utilities for environment detection, custom rule management, file processing, and result handling.

Utilities

Environment Detection

import { log, isFakeTimerUsed } from '@sa11y/common';

// Debug logging (only outputs when SA11Y_DEBUG is set)
log('Debug message');

// Check if fake timers are being used
if (isFakeTimerUsed()) {
    // Handle fake timer scenario
}

Custom Rules

import { useCustomRules, registerCustomRules } from '@sa11y/common';

// Load custom rules from environment
const customRules = useCustomRules();

// Register custom axe rules
registerCustomRules(changesData, rulesData, checkData);

File Processing

import { processFiles, writeHtmlFileInPath } from '@sa11y/common';

// Process files in a directory
const results = [];
processFiles('/path/to/directory', results, '.json', JSON.parse);

// Write HTML file for debugging
writeHtmlFileInPath('/output/path', 'test.html', '<html>...</html>');

Result Processing

import { getViolations, getIncomplete } from '@sa11y/common';

// Get violations using a custom checker function
const violations = await getViolations(async () => {
    const results = await axe.run();
    return results.violations;
});

// Get incomplete results
const incomplete = await getIncomplete(async () => {
    const results = await axe.run();
    return results.incomplete;
});
