triggers-api

Triggers pattern through class and script language for node.js or browser.

Installation

npm i -s @allnulled/triggers-api

Importation

In node.js:

require("@allnulled/triggers-api");

In html:

<script src="node_modules/@allnulled/triggers-api/triggers-api.bundled.js"></script>

Usage

The same as TriggersClass API but with a load(script) method that accepts TriggersScript Syntax to load the triggers from a string.

Test

This is a test on how to register events by load, which is the only new thing from TriggersClass API:

require(__dirname + "/triggers-api.bundled.js");

describe("Triggers API Test", function() {
  
  it("can load triggers", async function() {
    
    const triggers = new TriggersApi();

    global.counter = 5;

    console.log(triggers);
    console.log(triggers.load(`on event {{ "wherever" }} as {{ "TR002" }} then { always {{ global.counter = 50; }} }`));
    console.log(triggers);

    await triggers.emit("wherever");

    console.log(global.counter);

  });

});

Use cases

For lighter approach, take only TriggersClass API, which covers the programmatic base in less than 100 lines.

For a more customizable, clearifier, reachable, etc. approach, take this API, which includes the TriggersScriptParser global, and lets you load triggers by strings. But it takes aroung 2700 lines for the parser, mainly.

You can choose.
