Description

prime is an Object Oriented JavaScript library. It helps you with prototypal inheritance and contains generic utilities for every-day JavaScripting.

No Native JavaScript Objects were harmed in the making of this library.

Modules Overview

A short overview of the available modules. For more information, refer to the documentation.

prime

The function to create new primes.

var prime = require("prime")

var Animal = prime({
    say: function(){
        return "!!"
    }
})

var Cat = prime({
    inherits: Animal,
    say: function(){
        return "meaow" + Cat.parent.say.call(this)
    }
})

prime/shell

The base shell. As you require more shells, the base shell will be augmented. Requiring specific shells gives you access to generic methods as well.

var array = require("prime/shell/array")

array.indexOf([1,2,3], 3) // 3

var _ = require("prime/shell")

_([1,2,3]).remove(1).each(function(number){
    console.log(number)
})

prime/emitter

The event emitter.

var Emitter = require("prime/emitter")

var Dog = prime({
    inherits: Animal,
    say: function(){
        var word = "wuff" + Dog.parent.say.call(this)
        this.emit("say", word)
        return word
    }
})

Dog.implement(new Emitter)

var barkley = new Dog

barkley.on("say", function(word){
    console.log("barkley barked", word)
})

prime/map

Simple WeakMap implementation.

var Map = require("prime/map")

var map = new Map()

map.set(domElement, "header")
map.set(domElement2, "footer")
map.get(domElement) // "header"
map.get(domElement2) // "footer"

prime/type

Type checker.

var type = require("prime/type")

type("string") // "string"
type([]) // "array"
type(function(){}) // "function"
type(/regexp/) // "regexp"

type(10) // "number"
type(false) // "boolean"
