Elm Node

This project is a temporary monolith. Ideally getting broken into multiple packages. But for the sake of progress development its a cluster.

This project is split into 2 halves, Low Level for Native bindings, and High Level for framework API's.

Completed Low Level Bindings

• Streams
• File System
• Process
• Zlib

In Progress

• Network
• Http
• DNS

Goals

High Level API to node things

(pure flavors most likely as IO builders, that consumers must eventually run : pureFlavor -> Task x ())

• Streams
  • Either a pure flavor that is really a list kinda like streams
  • Or a higher level bindings that is still impure like the popular io-streams
• Pure File System
  • FS as a type, coupled with runFS : FS FSError () -> Task FSError ()
• Basic server abstraction
  • Marshall-able pure Request and Response types
  • Server side code as Request -> Response
  • Startapp flavor to based on foldp on routes
  • Sinatra style routing abstraction
    • param capture
  • Elm as a Response constructor
• Shared Mailbox between the client and server backed with web-sockets.

Not on the table right now (but maybe later)

• SQLlite bindings
• Mongo DB persistence and querying around native Elm types. General purpose node bindings
