About this package

@levkin/playkit

Shared Playwright + API test kit for Levkin / homelab apps.

Use it as a library from any consumer repo (punimtag, MirrorMatch, …). App-specific Page Objects and specs stay in the consumer; reusable helpers, logging, API client, performance timings, and Grafana/Prometheus metrics live here.

Install (consumer)

# Preferred — Gitea npm registry (docs/NPM_REGISTRY.md)
npm install @levkin/playkit@0.4.0

# Fallback — git tag
npm install git+https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/playkit.git#v0.4.0

# Scaffold e2e/
npx @levkin/playkit init

# peer
npm install -D @playwright/test
npx playwright install chromium

// e2e/fixtures.ts
import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
import { createPlaykitRuntime, type PlaykitFixtures } from '@levkin/playkit';

const runtime = createPlaykitRuntime();

export const test = base.extend<PlaykitFixtures>({
  playkitConfig: async ({}, use) => use(runtime.playkitConfig),
  playkitLog: async ({}, use) => use(runtime.playkitLog),
  api: async ({}, use) => use(runtime.api),
  timings: async ({}, use) => use(runtime.timings),
});

export { expect } from '@playwright/test';

// e2e/auth.signout.spec.ts — catches NEXTAUTH_URL → 10.x redirect (punimtag #57)
import { assertPublicHost, waitForUrlHost } from '@levkin/playkit';
import { test } from './fixtures';

test('sign-out stays on public host', async ({ page, playkitConfig, timings }) => {
  assertPublicHost(playkitConfig.baseUrl);
  await timings.measure('open', () => page.goto(playkitConfig.baseUrl));
  // … login …
  // … sign out …
  await waitForUrlHost(page, playkitConfig.expectedHost);
});

Environment

Variable	Required	Purpose
PLAYKIT_BASE_URL / BASE_URL	yes	Public UI URL (e.g. https://punimtagdev.levkin.ca)
PLAYKIT_API_BASE_URL	no	Defaults to base URL
PLAYKIT_EXPECTED_HOST	no	Defaults to host of base URL
PLAYKIT_FORBID_PRIVATE_HOSTS	no	Default true — refuse 10.x / localhost as expected host
PLAYKIT_RETRY_PRESET	no	default | strictCi | flakyNetwork (timeouts/retries)
PLAYKIT_ACTION_RETRIES / PLAYKIT_TIMEOUT_MS	no	Override preset values
PLAYKIT_PROJECT	no	Metric / log label
PLAYKIT_ENV	no	Metric / log label (dev/qa/prod)
PLAYKIT_METRICS_ENABLED	no	Push timings to Pushgateway
PLAYKIT_PUSHGATEWAY_URL	if metrics	e.g. http://10.0.10.24:9091
PLAYKIT_LOG_LEVEL	no	debug | info | warn | error

Secrets: put test credentials and pushgateway tokens in Infisical (LevkinOps) and sync into Gitea Actions — see ansible docs/hardening/SECRETS.md. Never commit passwords.

What’s in the box

Module	Role
BasePage, click / fill / safeGoto	Retried browser actions + Page Object base
waitForUrlHost / assertPublicHost	Guard against LAN redirect bugs
ApiClient	Typed HTTP client with status asserts + redacted logs
createLogger / redactSecrets	Structured JSON logs
TimingCollector / pushPrometheusMetrics	Action timings → Prometheus Pushgateway → Grafana
createPlaykitRuntime	One-shot config + logger + API + timings
createMailInbox / MailpitClient / MailtrapClient	Assert password-reset / verify emails (Mailpit homelab trap or Mailtrap SaaS)
assertSchema	Zod schema asserts (standalone or via ApiClient schema option)
saveStorageState / storageStateUse	Auth once, reuse across specs
playkitFailureArtifacts	Trace/video/screenshot only on failure
interceptNetworkCall	Spy or mock the next matching page network call
playkit CLI	init scaffold + smoke post-deploy gate

Network (page traffic)

import { interceptNetworkCall, startNetworkErrorMonitor } from '@levkin/playkit';

const users = interceptNetworkCall({ page, url: '**/api/users' });
const net = startNetworkErrorMonitor(page, { excludePatterns: ['sentry.io'] });
try {
  await page.goto('/users');
  const { status } = await users;
  expect(status).toBe(200);
} finally {
  net.assertNoErrors();
}

Email testing (Mailpit default, Mailtrap optional)

createMailInbox() picks the provider from PLAYKIT_MAIL_PROVIDER (default mailpit) so specs don't need to know which backend is behind it. Prefer Mailpit — it's our homelab SMTP trap (10.0.10.45, no external dependency); use Mailtrap only if you specifically want the SaaS sandbox.

import { createMailInbox, readMailHtml, firstLinkMatching, assertPublicHost } from '@levkin/playkit';

const mail = createMailInbox(); // reads PLAYKIT_MAIL_PROVIDER / MAILPIT_* / MAILTRAP_*
if (!mail) throw new Error('set MAILPIT_BASE_URL (or MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN + MAILTRAP_INBOX_ID)');

const after = new Date();
// … trigger forgot-password in the app …
const msg = await mail.waitForEmail({ to: 'e2e@example.com', subject: /reset/i, after });
const html = await readMailHtml(mail, msg); // normalizes Mailpit vs Mailtrap message shape
const link = firstLinkMatching(html, /reset-password/);
assertPublicHost(link!);

Important: the mail client only sees mail if the app's SMTP actually points at that trap (Mailpit 10.0.10.45:1025 in DEV, or Mailtrap's sandbox.smtp.mailtrap.io + inbox credentials for SaaS). Sending via Gmail to a real address will not appear in either. See ansible docs/hardening/SECRETS.md (## Playkit / punimtag e2e secrets).

Develop this repo

npm ci
npm run typecheck
npm test
npm run selftest   # fake site + Chromium (docs/SELFTEST.md)
npm run build

Outline live docs

After each release (or when consumer-facing docs change):

# needs OUTLINE_URL + OUTLINE_API_KEY (ansible: make vault-export-env)
python3 scripts/outline-sync-playkit.py

See docs/OUTLINE.md.

Release

1. Bump version in package.json
2. Update CHANGELOG.md with a ## X.Y.Z section (the release job extracts this verbatim as release notes)
3. Tag vX.Y.Z and push

Pushing the tag triggers .gitea/workflows/ci.yml's release job: it re-runs typecheck/test/build, verifies the tag matches package.json's version and that CHANGELOG.md documents it, then creates a Gitea release (with the npm pack tarball attached) via the API using a repo-scoped RELEASE_TOKEN Actions secret. If any check fails, no release is created — fix and re-tag. Consumers still pin the git tag (#vX.Y.Z); the Gitea release is for visibility/changelog, not an npm registry publish (see ROADMAP "private Gitea npm registry").

4. Update Outline — python3 scripts/outline-sync-playkit.py (checklist: docs/OUTLINE.md).

One-time setup: add a RELEASE_TOKEN secret (repo Settings → Actions → Secrets on ilia/playkit) scoped to create releases on this repo — separate from the PLAYKIT_GIT_TOKEN consumers use to clone it. (Named RELEASE_TOKEN, not GITEA_TOKEN — Gitea's Actions secrets API rejects that literal name as reserved, same reason PLAYKIT_GIT_TOKEN isn't called GITEA_TOKEN either.)
