Apache FlexJS
=============

Apache FlexJS is a next-generation Flex SDK that has the goal of allowing
applications developed in MXML and ActionScript to not only run in the
Flash/AIR runtimes, but also to run natively in the browser without Flash,
on mobile devices as a PhoneGap/Cordova application, and in embedded JS
environments such as Chromium Embedded Framework. FlexJS has the potential
to allow your MXML and ActionScript code to run in even more places than
Flash currently does.

Installation
==================================

Install the Apache FlexJS NPM Module globally

npm install flexjs -g

(There are a couple of prompts you need to answer before installation starts)

Usage
==================================

After global installation, the following compiler tools will be available for you
to use: mxmlc, compc, asjsc, asjscompc, asnodec, and externc.

Usage:

mxmlc
asjsc

Examples
==================================

There are several examples that ship with the FlexJS npm module. They are located in:
Windows:

C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\flexjs\examples\

Mac:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/flexjs/examples/

You can compile them with FlexJS like this:

MXMLC (Targets apps built for the FlexJS SDK, which creates a SWF file as well as
HTML5/JavaScript output)

Windows:

mxmlc C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\flexjs\examples\flexjs\ChartExample\src\main\flex\ChartExample.mxml

Mac:

mxmlc /usr/local/lib/node_modules/flexjs/examples/flexjs/ChartExample/src/main/flex/ChartExample.mxml

ASJSC (Write ActionScript3 targeting HTML5/SVG DOM without requiring JavaScript):

Windows:

asjsc C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\flexjs\examples\native\USStatesMap\src\main\flex\USStatesMap.as

Mac:

asjsc /usr/local/lib/node_modules/flexjs/examples/native/USStatesMap/src/main/flex/USStatesMap.as

You may need to copy the examples to a writeable folder because the compilation
will generate an output folder in the example folders.
