Jahmin core building blocks are:</p> <ul> <li>Customizable <strong>data-engines</strong>: which implements the server-client communication</li> <li>App state managment</li> <li>UI element are reusable web-components, written using the <a href="https://lit-element.polymer-project.org/guide">LitElement</a> framework.</li> <li>A <strong>service-manager</strong>: that takes care of wiring all building blocks togheter.</li> </ul> <h1>Minimal Example</h1> <h2>Install jahmin and UI Elements</h2> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-bash"><code>npm install jahmin jmn-basic-elements </code></pre> <h2>Import Jahmin</h2> <p>Then in your <code>main.js</code> you can import <code>jahmin</code> like the following (you need a bundler, like Webpack or Rollup):</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code>// main.js import {Manager,fakeDataEngine} from &quot;jahmin&quot; </code></pre> <p>Here in this example we are importing the <strong>ServiceManager</strong> and a <strong>fakeDataEngine</strong>, this type of engine is just for testing purpose and does not implement any communication with any server.</p> <h2>Add The Engine</h2> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code>// main.js import {Manager,fakeDataEngine} from &quot;jahmin&quot; var fake_engine = new fakeDataEngine(&quot;fake&quot;); // Add engine to the service Manager.AddEngine(fake_engine); // Set default (optional) Manager.SetDefaultEngine(fake_engine); // Initialize the Engines and start subscribing // variables from the components Manager.Init(); </code></pre> <p>One can add as many engine to the system as one wants. The name with whitch one instantiate the engine is important (in this case is <code>fake1</code>) and will be used to by the UI-components to define whitch engine to use to read variable values from the server.</p> <h2>Add UI Components</h2> <p>Import the components that you want to use. Jahmin comes with a set of very basic components like a <code>colorBox</code> (a box that changes color based on the status of a variable) a <code>label</code>, etc. A set of core UI-componets are defined in another repository <code>jmn-basic-elements</code> from which you can start with. In this example we are going to use a</p> <p>And import the elements in the main:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code>// main.js import {Manager,fakeDataEngine} from &quot;jahmin&quot; import {numericIndicator, setNumber} from &quot;jmn-basic-elements&quot; // ..... // // ..... // </code></pre> <p>Now create an HTML file <code>index.html</code>, and in this file you can import your <code>bundle.js</code> where you compiled the <code>main.js</code> togheter with <code>jahmin</code> and can directly use the imported UI-components:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-html"><code>&lt;!--index.html --> &lt;!DOCTYPE html> &lt;html lang=&quot;en&quot;> &lt;head> &lt;script src=&quot;bundle.js&quot;>&lt;/script> &lt;/head> &lt;body> &lt;color-box name=&quot;varA&quot; style=&quot;max-width: 10rem;&quot;> &lt;numeric-ind name=&quot;varA&quot;>varA&lt;/numeric-ind> &lt;set-number name=&quot;varB&quot;>varB&lt;/set-number> &lt;/color-box> &lt;br> &lt;color-box name=&quot;varC&quot; style=&quot;max-width: 10rem;&quot;> &lt;numeric-ind name=&quot;varC&quot;> Second Number&lt;/numeric-ind> &lt;/color-box> &lt;/body> &lt;/html> </code></pre> <p>The HTML output page should look something like this:</p> <p><img src="./html_get_started.png" alt="image info " title="Title"></p> <p>Now you may have noticed that each of the components have an attribute <code>name</code>, this is how one connects to the variable on the server, by variable name. Each component also have a <code>engine</code> attribute, where one can specify the engine name, if not specified will default to the default engine name.</p></article> </section> </div> <div class="col-md-3 side-content"> <nav class="toc hidden-print hidden-sm hidden-xs"></nav> </div> </div> </div> <footer> <div class="copyright">FooDoc Copyright © 2016 The contributors to the JSDoc3 and FooDoc projects.</div> <div class="generated-by">Documentation generated by <a href="https://github.com/jsdoc3/jsdoc">JSDoc 3.6.7</a> on 11th Jun 2021 using the <a href="https://github.com/steveush/foodoc">FooDoc template</a>.</div> </footer> <script src="js/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="js/bootstrap.min.js"></script> <script src="js/clipboard.min.js"></script> <script src="js/prism.min.js"></script> <script src="js/template.min.js"></script> <!-- start:lunr-search-modal.hbs --> <div class="modal fade" id="lunr-search-modal"> <div class="modal-dialog"> <div class="modal-content"> <div class="modal-header"> <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close"><span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span></button> <h4 class="modal-title">Search results</h4> </div> <div class="modal-body" id="lunr-search-body"> </div> <div class="modal-footer" id="lunr-search-footer"> <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button> </div> </div><!-- /.modal-content --> </div><!-- /.modal-dialog --> </div> <!-- end:lunr-search-modal.hbs --> <script src="js/lunr.min.js"></script> </body> </html> <!-- end:readme.hbs -->
