Shelloid ======== The Node.js Web Application Server that simplifies the development of secure & dependable web applications/services. Features built-in simulator for controlled functional testing of application/controller logic (work in progress - see below). Key features (at the moment): * Use of annotations instead of writing code for many useful functions. * Built in authentication (via passport.js) - requires only a single authentication function to be written. ** Currently supports local authentication as well as Google, Facebook, Twitter authentications out of the box. * Built-in login session management. * Supports specification-based verification of API requests/responses. Simple API specification which is automatically checked against requests for enhanced security, robustness. The application code will be cleaner owing to lesser checks required. * Built in cluster support by setting a single configuration flag. Builtin logging with cluster support. * Simplified DB API with built-in connection pooling. * Built-in simulator for controlled functional testing of application/controller logic (work in progress - please see sim/main.js in the shelloid-sample-app). Will support control of the flow of time as well as specification and verification of temporal properties. Currently the software is in very early alpha stage with featured being added on a daily (even hourly) basis. First full featured alpha release is expected to happen in a week or so. After that I will be putting up more documentation. Meanwhile you could try this to get an idea of the platform: npm install -g shelloid git clone https://github.com/shelloid/shelloid-sample-app. shelloid shelloid-sample-app shelloid shelloid-sample-app sim [to try out the simulator - this is work in progress] This will start up the web application at port 8080. You can take a look at the sample application structure. Please visit http://shelloid.org for more information and to register to Shelloid mailing list (low traffic).
