Can't run tests on vitest with json-big

Question

For some reason my typescript/vue with vite setup runs fine but trying to run tests just won't work. Here's the (i think) relevant files:

package.json

{
  "name": "vite-vue-typescript-starter",
  "version": "0.1.4",
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "vite",
    "build": "vue-tsc --noEmit && vite build --base /smgreenhousemanager",
    "test": "vitest run --coverage",
    "format": "prettier --write .",
    "typecheck": "vue-tsc --noEmit"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "@pixi/math-extras": "^6.4.2",
    "axios": "0.25.0",
    "json-big": "^1.0.2",
    "lodash": "^4.17.21",
    "mitt": "^3.0.0",
    "pinia": "^2.0.13",
    "pixi-viewport": "^4.34.4",
    "pixi.js": "^6.4.2",
    "pixi.js-keyboard": "^1.1.6",
    "pixi.js-mouse": "^1.1.6",
    "ts-toolbelt": "^9.6.0",
    "uuid": "^8.3.2",
    "vue": "^3.2.26"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@types/lodash": "^4.14.182",
    "@types/node": "^18.6.2",
    "@types/uuid": "^8.3.4",
    "@vitejs/plugin-vue": "^2.2.0",
    "@vitest/coverage-c8": "^0.22.0",
    "@vue/compiler-sfc": "^3.2.23",
    "happy-dom": "^6.0.4",
    "jsdom": "^20.0.0",
    "typescript": "^4.5.4",
    "vite": "^2.8.0",
    "vitest": "^0.22.0",
    "vue-tsc": "^0.29.8"
  }
}

vite.config.ts

// https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/triple-slash-directives.html#-reference-types-
/// <reference types="vitest" />

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
import process from "process"

const httpPort: string = process.env.HTTP_PORT || '8069' // This parallels our backend declaration in service.py.
const backendUrl: string = process.env.BACKEND_URL || `localhost:${httpPort}`

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [vue()],
    define: {
        'BACKEND_URL': `"${backendUrl}"`
    },
    build: {
        target: 'esnext'
    },
    test: {
        environment : "happy-dom"
    }
})

utils.test.ts

import { expect, test } from 'vitest'
import {Rectangle} from "pixi.js";
import {normaliseRectangleShape} from "../lib/utils";

test('normalised rectangle nominal', () => {
    const rect = new Rectangle(0, 0, 50, 50)
    const normalised = normaliseRectangleShape(rect)

    expect(normalised.x).toBe(0)
    // expect(normalised).toHaveProperty('y', 0)
    // expect(normalised).toHaveProperty('width', 50)
    // expect(normalised).toHaveProperty('height', 50)
})

Importing normaliseRectangleShape eventually end up importing json-big because of other utils function in its file. I have this output with vitest run:

/usr/local/bin/npm test

> vite-vue-typescript-starter@0.1.4 test
> vitest run

• I tried fiddleing with the vite config with the deps options from vitest
• I tried deleting node modules and reinstalling
• I'm running node v16.16.0 and npm v8.17.0 on Linux Mint (Vanessa)

Answer 1

I ended up using json-bigint-patch instead and requiring it in a beforeAll in my setup file:

import {beforeAll} from 'vitest'

beforeAll(() => {
  require('json-bigint-patch')  // Ensures all tests have the patched JSON
})
