``
npm i lavkode
`

`js
var lowcode = require('lavkode')

// Page, including layout if specified
var html = await lowcode.page($, page)

// Actions
var result = await lowcode.action($, action)
`

Generally each section in the file refers to a directory in your app with the same name, so filters will look for files in the app/filters directory for example.

If you want to include files in a deep directory structure, use dot notation:

`yml
filters:
- auth.user
`

If the reference is a directory, it will load all files in that directory in the order it exists on the disk.

If you want to control the sort order when including a directory, prefix each file name with a number:

`
app/filters/1-login.js
app/filters/2-require-admin.js
`

Pages have the following possible structure (example):

`yml
title: Example low code page
desc: This it the meta description
layout: main
filters:
- authenticate
- login-required
setups:
- load-project-data
scripts:
- handleClick
- handleToggleSection
views:
- hero
- intro
- content
- outro
`

To build the page and return HTML, including layout, do this:

`js
var html = await lowcode.page(page)
`

The default name for layouts is main, and will be used if not specified with the page.

Set layout: false to not use a layout.

Layouts are used with pages and have a this structure:

`yml
head:
- scripts
- views
body:
- scripts
- views
`

Layouts are not built separately, but included if specified in pages.

To build the layout and return HTML, do this:

`js
var html = await lowcode.layout(layout)
`

Actions have the following possible structure (example):

`yml
filters:
- auth
- require-account
flows:
- do
- something
allow:
query:
- id
deny:
values:
- password
validate:
query:
id:
is: id
values:
name:
is: string

If db is used, it is stored in result

db:
path: project/find

Keep only these attributes from result

keep:
- id
- name

Remove these attributes from result

remove:
- email
- password

Explicit return

return:
ok: 1
`

To build the layour and return HTML, do this:

`js
var fn = await lowcode.action(action)
`

If the actions are named one of the following, they override the schema` actions:

* create
* update
* delete
* upload
* find
* get
* search
