Finite State Machine

Tiny finite state machine library for fun and profit. See the tests for more usage examples.

Using this module in other modules

Here is a quick example of how this module can be used in other modules. The TypeScript Module Resolution Logic makes it quite easy. The file src/index.ts is a barrel that re-exports selected exports from other files. The package.json file contains main attribute that points to the generated lib/index.js file and typings attribute that points to the generated lib/index.d.ts file.

• To use the FSM class in a TypeScript file -

import { FSM } from "@barakplasma/finite-state-machine";

const anFSM = new FSM();

anFSM.addState('on');
anFSM.addState('off');

anFSM.on({ inputName: 'toggle' }, () => {
    return new Map([['on', 'off'], ['off', 'on']]);
});

const { dispatch } = anFSM;

dispatch({ inputName: 'toggle' });

anFSM.getCurrentState() // 'off'

• To use the FSM class in a JavaScript file -

const FSM = require('@barakplasma/finite-state-machine').FSM;

const anFSM = new FSM();

anFSM.addState('on');
anFSM.addState('off');

anFSM.on({ inputName: 'toggle' }, () => {
    return new Map([['on', 'off'], ['off', 'on']]);
});

const { dispatch } = anFSM;

dispatch({ inputName: 'toggle' });

anFSM.getCurrentState() // 'off'
