@desicochrane/machine v0.2.4

Machine

Tiny dependency-free state-machine implementation in javascript.

Get Started

Basic:

1. npm install @desicochrane/machine

2. Define a new state machine specification

   import Machine, { Transition } from '@desicochrane/machine'
   
   const spec = {
       __start__: 'off',
       off: {
           click: Transition('on'),
       },
       on: {
           click: Transition('off'),
       }
   }

3. Instantiate your machine with data:

   const m = Machine(spec)

4. Use the machine

   console.log(m.state) // "off"
   
   m.click()
   
   console.log(m.state) // "on"

5. Export to Dot file:

   import { Dot } from  '@desicochrane/machine'
   import fs from 'fs'
   
   const dot = Dot(spec)
   
   fs.writeFileSync('machine.dot', dot);

6. Optionally pass in data

   import Machine, { Transition } from '@desicochrane/machine'
   
   const spec = {
       __start__: 'off',
       off: {
           click: Transition('on', (m, args) => {
               m.data.count += args
           }),
       },
       on: {
           click: Transition('off', (m, args) => {
               m.data.count -= args
           }),
       }
   }
   
   
   const m = Machine(spec, { count: 0 })
   
   m.click(3)
   console.log(m.data.count) // 3
   
   m.click(2)
   console.log(m.data.count) // 1
