@creatcodebuild/csp v0.0.6

Communicating Sequential Process in All of JavaScript

This is an ES module that supports CSP style of concurrency in Browser, Node and Deno. This module has 0 external dependencies.

The implementation is mapped to Go's channel semantics as close as possible unless the nature of JS advices otherwise.

How to Use

Browser ES Module & Deno in JavaScript

import * as csp from "https://creatcodebuild.github.io/csp/dist/csp.js";

Deno in TypeScript

import * as csp from "https://creatcodebuild.github.io/csp/src/csp.ts";

Node

CommonJS

const csp = require("@creatcodebuild/csp")
console.log(csp);

ES Module

import * as csp from "@creatcodebuild/csp";

Document

The library is at the early stage, all documentations are written in the formal of unit tests with detailed explainations.

Why?

My motivation of writing it is not merely an intellectual pursue of reinvention the wheel, considering there are already at least 3 implementations of CSP in JavaScript.

I am writing a new kind of GraphQL backend framework that focuses on distributed development (multi-lingua) and real-time communicating (GraphQL Subscription). Why am I writing yet another GraphQL framework? That deserves an article of its own. In order to achieve it, I need a robust concurrent model that can work both in a single process and distributely. After much research, I have chosen CSP over Actor Model because

1. CSP is easier to implement.
2. CSP works better in a single-process situation.
3. Go has native CSP so that I save energy (I'm only targeting JS and Go at the moment)

None of the CSP implementations in JS meets my requirement so that I have to implement my own. It's faster to write my own than PR to other repos.
