altseven v7.2.0

altseven

v 7.2.0

A JavaScript framework. Originally built as an exploration into reactive programming with JavaScript. Now a full-fledged Web framework.

Compile on CLI from root folder:

`$ grunt clean`

To install dev dependencies from NPM:

`$ npm install`

Current Release - 7.2.0

This release changes the required response of the refresh mechanism and therefore changes the response of a7.security.isAuthenticated. Previously, this method returned true or false. Now, this method returns an object { authenticated: true|false }. The refresh method on the server should now return an object with the authenticated key and a boolean value. The refresh method may also optionally return other information, such as an updated user object, e.g. { authenticated: true|false, user: user }. This refresh method can be used to re-establish a user session if the rememberMeToken cookie is set in the user's browser.

Installation

Note that the library is no longer published on Bower, so pull from npm.

$ npm install altseven

You only need to install dependencies from npm to work on the altseven framework, or for optional modules:

gadget-ui can be used for the FloatingPane as a container for the debugging console.

$ npm install gadget-ui

Handlebars can be used as the templating engine.

$ npm install handlebars

modlazy can be used as a module/dependency loader if you use Handlebars or Mustache for rendering

$ npm install modlazy

Running the Sample App

NodeJS

$ node index.js

from the root of the project and access the sample apps at:

127.0.0.1:8800/test/index.html.

CFML

The CFML engine test has been deprecated and may not be functional.

To run the example application included in the /test folder, you need a CFML engine. The easiest way to run it is to install CommandBox:

If you are running Linux, you can follow directions on my blog for installing CommandBox:

If you prefer to see altseven in action with a NodeJS backend, you can clone the git repo for tasklist:

$ git clone https://github.com/robertdmunn/tasklist

Check the homepage/README for tasklist for directions on running it.
