Object-Oriented JavaScript

QuodJS - Object Oriented JavaScript

A small library to add basic OO features to JavaScript.

Version

v0.0.2

Model

This library tries to emulate OO functionalities in the same way PHP does. The same code should behave the same way both in PHP and in QuodJS.

This module is slightly different from other languages like Java. For example, in QuodJS when extending a class you can also override properties instead of just shadowing them like in Java.

Documentation

An annotated version of the code is available in src/annotated, and the generated documentation (made with [Docco] (http://jashkenas.github.io/docco/)) can be found in docs/quod.html.

Install

To use QuodJS just include src/quod.min.js in your HTML file.

Node.js

QuodJS is tested and working with Node.js v0.11.13.

Testing

tests contains an usage example and a few unit tests to run against the code. The same test can be run in Node.js by installing [QUnit module for Node] (https://github.com/kof/node-qunit) and running command qunit -c src/quod.js -t tests/quod.tests.js in the root folder.

Changelog

v0.0.1

Initial public release.

Disclaimer

This project is just "for fun", some kind of syntactic sugar added to the language I use (and actually like) the most. I'm sure there are plenty of ways to achieve the same results with better performances, or a cleaner code, I just haven't found them yet. If you care to contribute, be my guest ^_^
