Fairmont-Reactive

Fairmont-Reactive is a JavaScript library for functional reactive programming. It's part of the [Fairmont][] library. You can use it by itself, or simply as part of the [Fairmont][] library.

Installation

npm install fairmont-reactive

Examples

Here's a simple reactive Web app implementing a counter using Fairmont's Reactive programming functions.

In JavaScript:

``javascript
var $ = require("jquery"),
F = require("fairmont");

$(function() {

var data = { counter: 0 };

F.go([
F.events("click", $("a[href='#increment']")),
F.map(function() { data.counter++; })
]);

F.go([
F.events("change", F.observe(data)),
F.map(function() {
$("p.counter")
.html(data.counter);
})
]);
});

`

In CoffeeScript:

`coffeescript
{start, flow, events, map, observe} = require "fairmont-reactive"

$ = require "jquery"

$ ->

data = counter: 0

go [
events "click", $("a[href='#increment']")
map -> data.counter++
]

go [
events "change", observe data
map ->
$("p.counter")
.html data.counter
]
`
