Bam

B.A.M

Introduction

Bam is a library intended to aid in the development of webapps. It uses Backbone as a base for its classes, adding methods and classes for common tasks.

There are two core ideas to Bam; firstly that views for a webapp can be arranged in a tree-like data structure and secondly that views are finite state machines.

API

Each Model, Collection and View inherits everything from Backbone's Model, Collection and View.

Bam.View

A Bam View is a tree and, separately, a finite state machine. The tree helps with the heirarchy of components, and the finite state machine helps with transferring user interactions and data changes into interface actions.

Bam.Model

Models have everything a Backbone Model has, with a couple of utility functions for accessing models before and after them in a collection.

next()

If the model is in a collection, this will return the model at the index directl after the index of this model. I.e., if you are the 2nd model in a collection it will return the third.

If the model is not in a collection it will return null. If the model is the last model in a collection it will also return null.

prev()

prev() works the same as next(). The difference it just moves the other direction. If the model is the first in a collection then prev() will return null.

Bam.Collection

Collections hevae everything a Backbone Collection has, with a couple of utility functions for getting the models before and after other models in the collection.

before(model)

Gets the model before the model model in the collection. Ideally used in a collection with a comparator so there is some kind of sort order.

Returns null if the model doesn't exist in the collection or if the model is the first in the collection.

after(model)

Same as before(model) but looks for the model afterwards.

Returns null if the model doesn't exist in the collection or if the model is the last in the collection.
