Getting Started

This package is available in the Node Package Repository and can be easily installed with npm or yarn.

# or
$ yarn add @slimio/core

Usage example

A script that demonstrate how to load a default core (Configuration will be created dynamically).

const Core = require("@slimio/core");

async function main() {
    console.time("start_core");
    const core = await (new Core(__dirname)).initialize();
    console.timeEnd("start_core");

    // Handle exit signal!
    process.on("SIGINT", () => {
        console.error("Exiting SlimIO Agent (please wait)");
        core.exit().then(() => {
            setImmediate(process.exit);
        }).catch(function mainErrorHandler(error) {
            console.error(error);
            process.exit(1);
        });
    });
}
main().catch(console.error);

API

Create a new instance of Core Object. The argument dirname is the root directory where the core have to load his configuration and all addons.

The constructor take an optional options object which contain all options to configure the core Agent.

interface ConstructorOptions {
    silent?: boolean;
    autoReload?: number;
}

Initialize the Core (it will load configuration and addons). The loading of addons is lazy, so the response will be returned before the addons have had time to fully load.

Stop the core and all affiliated ressources (addons, config etc..).

Note: Think to exit the process with an iteration + 1 (with setImmediate).
