easy-app

This library suggests programming model with the same core idea as found in DI containers and build systems like make. However here we refine the definition of typical container to allow much more effective and broad usage.

Programming model

Application (or any complex function) is described as a set of global names, where the value of each name can be defined in following 3 ways:

As a constant
As a function, which can accept as arguments values of other names
As a level (A tuple of main value and a list of seeds)

The definition above is best made clear by an example.

const App = require('easy-app')

let app = new App

app.def('a', () => 'a')

app.def('ab', (a, b) => a + b)

app.level('Ab', 'ab', ['b'])

app.def('abc', (Ab, c) => Ab('BB') + Ab('bb') + c)

app.level('Abc', 'abc', ['c'])

let abc = app.compile('Abc')

abc('C') // => 'aBBabbC'
