Build Status

Feature Oriented Active Modeller

FOAM is a modeling tool and class based object system. To use FOAM, you create a model of your class by describing the properties, methods, event topics, listeners, and dependencies of your class. FOAM takes this model and generates a usable JavaScript class along with several companion features such as database support and network marshaling.

While FOAM is written in JavaScript, it can be used to generate code for any language or platform, including Android Java and iOS Swift.

Development

Building Java

cd src; ./gen.sh; cd ../build; cp ../tools/pom.xml .; mvn compile; mvn package

Or you may build and run using

make run

And to clean the project, you may use

make clean

FOAM has no runtime dependencies, but uses a number of third party tools for unit tests, code coverage, and linting. You can install all required tools by doing the following.

  • Install nodejs.

  • Run 'npm install' in the root of the FOAM repository, where package.json is found.
