Corporate Bollox Generator (cpblx)

A JavaScript function to generate random corporate quotes and 'scientific' output.

"We exist to build end-to-end Diverse Remote Teams through dynamic leadership skills by escalatingly envisioneering meta-services. Who wouldn't want to deliver resource-sucking markets? Why fail to supply future-proof blockchains? Before 5 years ago there were only supply chains or enabled UX. That's why we fashion, we fabricate, and we whiteboard - competently encapsulating our client-focused USPs.

Our purpose is to add imploratory outsourcing by building inexpensive sprints and using credibly centering our people-centric digital business transformation (DBT). When will we achieve inexpensive functionalities? What drives our cross-platform scrums? We started with efficient vertically aligned portals. We are not ashamed to build, to optimize, and to onboard - always completely generating our business conversion and storytelling."

(optional) Building

Install dependencies for npm and build with webpack

npm install
npm run build

This updates the cpblx bundle in the dist/ folder

Usage

Include the library in your page

<script src="dist/cpblx.js"></script>

Include a space on the pages to display it e.g.

<div id="crap"></div>

Then put the corporate bollox generator to work.

default is random dialect and random quantity

e.g.

<script>
document.getElementById('crap').innerHTML = cpblx();
</script>

For the chart(s) a named DIV (sent as an option) is required. e.g.

<button onclick='cpblx(0,-12,"{\"SVGcontainer\": \"example10\"}");'>Chart(s)
</button>
<div id="example10"></div>

See some examples here on github.

options for calling cpblx

cpblx()                           // random dialect and quantity
cpblx(dialect)                    // define the dialect, random quantity
cpblx(dialect, quantity)          // define dialect and quantity
cpblx(dialect, quantity, options) // define dialect, quantity, and
                                     other options (see below)

Options

Send a JSON string of options

var cpblxoptions = `{
    "showlink": true
}`;
document.getElementById('crap').innerHTML = cpblx(0,0,cpblxoptions);

• showlink adds a URL to the end of the generated text - see examples for a demo
• pid presented in the URL (provided by using the showlink option) which sends the encoded details to recreate the exact same (memorable) cpblx output. pid includes everything it needs - dialect and amount options are ignored

TODO

Move the generation mechanism to the same as used by the original nonsense generator SciGen as ported to JavaScript by David Pomerenke. Note: SciGen.js has been forked for cpblx.

• reformat the cpblx rules to the original SciGen (2005) text format (done)
• rework the rules generator files in Perl and JavaScript by adapting those from SciGen.js (done)
• add the mechanism to this TypeScript Library (done)

Make use of the animals and colours somewhere.

• they are used on the cpblx website for the Blog-it feature but not used (yet) in this library
