Expressive runtime invariants for JavaScript.
## Installation
$ npm install invar --save
## Usage
```javascript
import invar from 'invar'
```
---
### `invar(message)`
Check for truthiness.
#### Example
```javascript
invar(2 + 2 === 5, "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.")
```
#### Throws
Invariant Violation: I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.
---
### `invar.equal(actual, expected, message)`
Check for shallow equality.
#### Example
```javascript
invar.equal(2 + 2, 5, "Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do.")
```
#### Throws
Invariant Violation: Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do.
actual: 4
expected: 5
---
### `invar.notEqual(actual, expected, message)`
Check for shallow unequality.
#### Example
```javascript
invar.notEqual(2 + 2, 4, "I've just picked up a fault in the AE35 unit.")
```
#### Throws
Invariant Violation: I've just picked up a fault in the AE35 unit.
actual: 4
expected: not 4
---
### `invar.req(arg)`
Always fail. Used for mandatory function arguments.
#### Example
```javascript
function myFunction (mandatoryArg = invar.req('mandatoryArg')) {}
myFunction()
```
#### Throws
Invariant Violation: Required argument 'mandatoryArg' not provided.
---
### `invar.fail(message)`
Always fail.
#### Example
```javascript
invar.fail("I'm afraid. I'm afraid, Dave. Dave, my mind is going.")
```
#### Throws
Invariant Violation: I'm afraid. I'm afraid, Dave. Dave, my mind is going.
## Development
Invar uses [JavaScript Standard Style](https://github.com/feross/standard), [Babel](https://babeljs.io/) for ES6+ support, and [Jest](http://facebook.github.io/jest/) for testing.
$ git clone [email protected]:pavlovml/invar.git
