Starter Project

• extract and run npm run dev
• this starts a minimal build process with preconfigured babel and browserify
• point your browser to localhost:8080 to view the examples
• or use this as template for your own project

Usage

import { element, cycle, views, scopes, decorators } from 'fux';

const { component, controller, dispatchChangeSets } = decorators;
const App = component(
  dispatchChangeSets(),
  controller({
    inc: ['/count', count => count + 1]
  }),
)(function({ context }) {
  return (
    <div>
      <input type='button' onClick='inc'/>
      {context.get('/count')}
    </div>
  );
});

const view = views.dom(document.body, App);
const scope = scopes.value({ count: 0 });

cycle(view, scope);

Architecture

• Context
  • immutable data structure (struct)
  • holds application context
  • emitted from scopes, when they have new data
  • consumed from views
• PatchSet
  • list of json patch objects
  • used like actions in flux architecture
  • used to manipulate Context
  • emitted from views, when they change state
  • consumed from scopes
• Scope
  • state container
  • representation of data that may change over time (stream)

• View

  • passes context to deku component
  • render component to DOM
  • component may dispatch PatchSet on user interaction
  • available views
  • fux.views.dom

• Component

  • stateless
  • dispatches side effects to scopes
  • additional functionality added through decorators
