bugcore

bugcore is a JavaScript library that provides a foundational architecture for object oriented JS. It is designed to work both within node js as well as directly in the browser.

bugcore provides a basic class model based on John Resig's simple JavaScript inheritance. In addition the library provides many basic data models and utility classes for common object oriented patterns.

The library is extremely robust and makes up the foundation of our architecture for airbug so check out the docs for an overview of the full power of what the code has to offer. If the library is missing something you need, please let us know!

Latest Version 0.2.16

NOTE: This documentation is still being written. If you click on a link and it doesn't go anywhere, it's likely because that portion of the docs hasn't been written yet. If there are parts of the docs you'd like us to focus on, feel free to ask!

Quick Examples

Creation of a new class

var Class   = bugcore.Class;
var Obj     = bugcore.Obj;

var SomeClassConstructor = Class.extend(Obj, {});

Creation of a new class with an internal _constructor method

var SomeClassConstructor = Class.extend(Obj, {
    _constructor: function() {
        this._super(); // Call super constructor
    }
});

Creation of a new class with overridden equals and hashCode methods

/**
 * @class
 * @extends {Obj}
 */
var SomeClassConstructor = Class.extend(Obj, {

    /**
     * @constructs
     * @param {number} a
     * @param {number} b
     */
    _constructor: function(a, b) {

        this._super(); // Call super constructor

        /**
         * @private
         * @type {number}
         */
        this.a = a;

        /**
         * @private
         * @type {string}
         */
        this.b = b
    },

    /**
     * @override
     * @param {*} value
     * @return {boolean}
     */
    equals: function(value) {
        if (Class.doesExtend(value, SomeClass)) {
            return (Obj.equals(value.a, this.a) && Obj.equals(value.b, this.b));
        }
        return false;
    },

    /**
     * @override
     * @return {number}
     */
    hashCode: function() {
        if (!this._hashCode) {
            this._hashCode = Obj.hashCode("[SomeClass]" +
                Obj.hashCode(this.a) + Obj.hashCode(this.b));
        }
        return this._hashCode;
    },
});

Use of a Map

var myMap = new bugcore.Map();
myMap.put("key1", "value1");
myMap.put("key2", "value2");
myMap.get("key1");      // "value1"
myMap.get("key2");      // "value2"

Use of a Map with instances as keys

var myMap       = new bugcore.Map();

// SomeClass is from the above example that uses overridden equals and hashCode methods
var instance1   = new SomeClass(123, "abc");
var instance2   = new SomeClass(123, "abc");
myMap.put(instance1, "value");
myMap.put(instance2, "value2");

//hash codes and equality checks are equal therefore the two instances are considered
//the same key even though they are separate instances in memory
myMap.getCount();       // 1
myMap.get(instance1)    // "value2"
myMap.get(instance2)    // "value2"

 * @param {Object.<string, *>} declaration
 * @return {function(new:Constructor)}
 */
Class.declare = function(declaration) {

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
declaration{Object.<string, *>}An object that declares the methods of the new class.

Returns

  • {function(new:Constructor)} - The newly created class's constructor.

Examples

        // No need to call this._super, this is the lowest level.
    }
});

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Class.doesExtend(value, constructor)

This method is used to determine if a value extends a particular Constructor's Class. Instances of Classes are considered to extend their own Class.

Method

/**
 * @static
 * @param {*} value
 * @param {function(new:Constructor)} constructor
 * @return {boolean}
 */
Class.doesExtend = function(value, constructor) {

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
value{*}The value to determine if it extends the given Constructor's Class
constructor{function(new:Constructor)}The Constructor used to check if the value extends it's Class

Returns

  • {boolean} - Whether or not the value extends the given Constructor's Class

Examples

var BaseBall = Class.extend(Ball, {});
var myBaseBall = new BaseBall();

Class.doesExtend(myBaseBall, Ball);         //true
Class.doesExtend(myBaseBall, BaseBall);     //true

 * @param {*} value
 * @param {function(new:Implementable)} implementable
 * @return {boolean}
 */
Class.doesImplement = function(value, implementable) {

Parameters

constructor{function(new:Constructor)}The Constructor used to check if the value extends it's Class

Returns

  • {boolean} - Whether or not the value implements the given Implementable's Interface

Examples

var IBall   = Interface.declare({});
var Ball    = Class.declare({});
Class.implement(Ball, IBall);

var myBall  = new Ball();

Class.doesImplement(myBall, IBall);         //true

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Class.extend(constructor, declaration)

This method is used to extend another Class. It accepts the Class's Constructor as a parameter and the declaration for the new Class.

Notes

Method

/**
 * @static
 * @param {function(new:Constructor)} constructor
 * @param {Object.<string, *>} declaration
 * @return {function(new:Constructor)}
 */
Class.extend = function(constructor, declaration) {

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
constructor{function(new:Constructor)}The constructor of the class to extend.
declaration{Object.<string, *>}An object that declares the methods of the new class.

Returns

  • {function(new:Constructor)} - The newly created class's constructor.

Examples

var BaseBall = Class.extend(Ball, {

    _constructor: function(diameter) {
        this._super(); // Call super constructor
        this.diameter = diameter;
    }

    throwBall: function() {

    }
});

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Class.implement(constructor, implementable)

This method marks a Class as implementing an Interface. When calling this method it will add the Implementable's Interface to the Class's list of Interfaces. It will also validate that the given Class actually implements all of the methods of the Interface. If the Class does not this method will throw an Error.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obj#_constructor()

Method

/**
 * @constructs
 */
_constructor: function() {

Parameters

  • None

Examples

var myObj = new Obj();

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obj#getInternalId()

Method

/**
 * @return {number}
 */
getInternalId: function() {

Parameters

  • None

Returns

  • {number} - The unique internal id for this instance. Unique only to this JS runtime.

Examples

var myObj       = new Obj();
var internalId  = myObj.getInternalId();

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Obj#clone(deep)

By default the clone method will use the instance's Class to instantiate a new instance. It will also iterate through the instance's properties and attempt to clone all properties that are not functions. If a deep clone is being performed, then the clone method will attempt to create a deep copy of each property. If a shallow clone is being performed then a reference to the property value will be set on the new instance.

Notes

  • _internalId is not cloned for deep or shallow clones. Therefore the clone instance is unique from that of the original.

Method

/**
 * @param {boolean=} deep
 * @return {*}
 */
clone: function(deep) {

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
deep{boolean=}Whether or not to perform a deep clone. Optional - default: false

Returns

  • {*} - A clone of the instance.

Examples

var myObj               = new Obj();
var shallowCloneObj     = myObj.clone();     //shallow clone
var deepCloneObj        = myObj.clone(true); //deep clone

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Obj#equals(value)

By default, the equality check will compare this instances _internalId to the value parameter.

Notes

  • If two instances are equal, they should return the same hash code.

Method

/**
 * @param {*} value
 * @return {boolean}
 */
equals: function(value) {

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
value{*}The value to compare to for equality.

Returns

  • {boolean} - Whether or not the instance is equal to the value parameter.

Examples

Two different instances are not equal

var obj1   = new Obj();
var obj2   = new Obj();
obj1.equals(obj2);      //false

An instance is equal to itself

var obj1   = new Obj();
obj1.equals(obj1);      //true

Clones are not equal unless the 'equals' method is overridden

var obj         = new Obj();
var objClone    = obj.clone();
obj.equals(objClone);      //false
var obj         = new Obj();
var objClone    = obj.clone(true);
obj.equals(objClone);      //false

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Obj#hashCode()

Returns the objects hashCode. The generation of the hashCode is only run once and then cached.

Notes

  • If two instances are equal, they should return the same hash code.
  • Equal hash codes is not a guarantee of equality.
  • A hash code should not change for an instance over the lifespan of the instance.
  • Generation of hash codes should be done only using immutable values.

Method

/**
 * @return {number}
 */
hashCode: function() {

Parameters

  • None

Returns

  • {number} - The hash code of this instance.

Examples

Get hash code of instance

var obj         = new Obj();
var hashCode    = obj.hashCode();

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Obj.clone(value, deep)

Clones the value parameter.

If the value implements IClone the clone() method will be called to perform a clone of the value. If the value is a basic value such as a number or string it will simply be passed through.

Method

/**
 * @static
 * @param {A} value
 * @param {boolean=} deep
 * @return {A}
 * @template A
 */
Obj.clone = function(value, deep) {

Notes

  • If the value implements IClone, the clone() method will be used to clone the value.
  • Cloning an object literal will create a new object literal and set references to all iterable property values of the original object.
  • Cloning a Date will create a new Date instance with the same time.
  • Cloning an Array will create a new Array with the same values in the same order.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
value{A}The value to clone.
deep{boolean=}Whether or not to perform a deep clone. Optional - default: false

Returns

  • {A} - A clone of the value.

Examples

var myObj               = new Obj();
var shallowCloneObj     = Obj.clone(myObj);         //shallow clone
var myObj               = new Obj();
var deepCloneObj        = Obj.clone(myObj, true);   //deep clone
var myString            = "abc123";
var cloneString         = Obj.clone(myString);      //"abc123"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Obj.equals(value1, value2)

Checks value1 and value2 for equality.

If value1 implements IEquals, the value1.equals() method will be used to perform the equality check. Otherwise === is used to compare the two values.

Notes

  • Two Date instances of the same time are considered equal

Method

/**
 * @static
 * @param {*} value1
 * @param {*} value2
 * @return {boolean}
 */
Obj.equals = function(value1, value2) {

Parameters

An instance is equal to itself

var obj1   = new Obj();
Obj.equals(obj1, obj1);         //true

Strings of the same value are equal

var string1 = "mystring";
var string2 = "mystring";

 * @return {number}
 */
Obj.hashCode = function(value) {

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
value{*}The value to generate a hash code for..

IClone

The base interface for cloning. If your Class can be cloned, you should implement this interface.

Interface

/**
 * @interface
 */
var IClone = Interface.declare({

Method Summary

AccessSignatureReturn Type
publicclone({boolean=} deep){*}

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### IClone#clone(deep)

This method returns a clone of the instance that implements this interface. Implementations should respect the deep clone flag.

Notes

  • Implementations should respect the deep flag.
  • Immutable values need not be cloned on a deep clone.

Method

/**
 * @param {boolean=} deep
 * @return {*}
 */
clone: function(deep) {}

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
deep{boolean=}Whether or not to perform a deep clone. Optional - default: false

Returns

  • {*} - A clone of the instance.


IEquals

The base interface for equality checks. If your Class can be compared for equality against another, you should implement this interface.

Notes

  • This interfaces must be implemented along with the the IHashCode interface if you want your Class to work properly with the bugcore data classes.
  • If two instances are equal, they should return the same hash code.

Interface

/**
 * @interface
 */
var IEquals = Interface.declare({

Method Summary

AccessSignatureReturn Type
publicequals({*} value){boolean}

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### IEquals#equals(value)

This method returns true if the instance that implements this interface is equal to the given value. Returns false if the given value does not equal the instance.

  • Implementations should handle any value passed in as a parameter.

Method

/**
 * @param {*} value
 * @return {boolean}
 */
equals: function(value) {}

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
value{*}The value to compare the instance against for equality.

Returns

  • {boolean} - Returns true if the instance is equal to the given value. False if not.


IHashCode

The base interface for generating a hash code for an instance. Used in tandem with the IEquals interface for storing values in HashStore and HashTable.

Notes

  • This interfaces must be implemented along with the the IEquals interface if you want your Class to work properly with the bugcore data classes.
  • If two instances are equal, they should return the same hash code.
  • If two instances are not they can still return the same hash code. However, this should be avoided to a degree as it will hurt the performance of HashTable and HashStore
  • Equal hash codes does not guarantee equality.

Interface

/**
 * @interface
 */
var IHashCode = Interface.declare({

Method Summary

AccessSignatureReturn Type
publichashCode(){number}

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### IHashCode#hashCode()

This method returns a hash code for the current instance.

Notes

  • Implementations should try to generate a relatively unique hash code for the given instance.
  • If two instances are equal, they should return the same hash code.

Method

/**
 * @return {number}
 */
hashCode: function() {}

Parameters

  • None

Returns

  • {number} - The hash code for the instance.

    "item1",
    "item2"
]);
myCollection.containsEqual(["item3"]);                        // false

Partial values contained are not a match.

var myCollection    = new Collection([
    "item1",
    "item2"
]);

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Collection#forEach(func)

forEach executes the provided function once for each element of the Collection.

Notes

  • Order is not maintained in a Collection. Therefore the order of iteration in items in a Collection is unpredictable.
  • If a value is modified in one iteration and then visited at a later time, its value in the loop is its value at that later time. A value that is deleted before it has been visited will not be visited later. Values added to the Collection over which iteration is occurring may either be visited or omitted from iteration. In general it is best not to add, modify or remove values from the Collection during iteration, other than the value currently being visited. There is no guarantee whether or not an added value will be visited, whether a modified value (other than the current one) will be visited before or after it is modified, or whether a deleted value will be visited before it is deleted.

Method

/**
 * @param {function(I)} func
 */
forEach: function(func) {

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
func{function(I)}The function to execute for each item

Returns

  • None

Examples

Execute for each item

var myCollection    = new Collection([
    "item1",
    "item2"
]);
myCollection.forEach(function(item) {
    console.log(item);  // item1 on first pass, item2 on second
});

Partial values contained are not a match.

var myCollection    = new Collection([]);

myCollection.forEach(function(item) {
    console.log(item);  // never executed
});

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Collection#getCount():number

Returns the number of items in the collection.

Method

/**
 * @return {number}
 */
getCount: function() {

Parameters

  • None

Returns

  • {number} - The number of items in the Collection.

Examples

Empty Collection

var myCollection    = new Collection([]);

myCollection.getCount();   //0

Starts with 2 items

var myCollection    = new Collection([
    "item1",
    "item2"
]);

myCollection.getCount()    //2

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Collection#getValueArray()

Returns an Array of the Collection's values.

Notes

  • Order of items in the Array is unpredictable.
  • This method generates a new Array each time.
  • Manipulating the Array will not affect the Collection.
  • Manipulating the Collection will not affect the returned Array after it has been generated.

Method

/**
 * @return {Array.<I>}
 */
getValueArray: function() {

Parameters

  • None

Returns

  • {Array.<I>} - An Array of the Collection's values.

Examples

Empty Collection

var myCollection    = new Collection([]);

myCollection.getValueArray();   // []

Starts with 2 items (order of items shown in examples is not indicative of real world results)

var myCollection    = new Collection([
    "item1",
    "item2"
]);

myCollection.getValueArray()                // ["item1", "item2"]

Manipulation of Collection after array is returned. (order of items shown in examples is not indicative of real world results)

var myCollection    = new Collection([
    "item1",
    "item2"
]);
var myValueArray    = myCollection.getValueArray();

myCollection.add("item3")                   // ["item1", "item2"]

console.log(myCollection.getValueArray())   // ["item1", "item2", "item3"]
console.log(myValueArray)                   // ["item1", "item2"]

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Collection#getValueCount(value)

Returns an the number or items in the Collection that are equal to the given value.

Method

/**
 * @param {*} value
 * @return {number}
 */
getValueCount: function(value) {

Parameters

  • None

Returns

  • {number} - The number of items in the Collection that are equal to the given value.

Examples

var myCollection    = new Collection([
    "a",
    "a",
    "b"
]);

myCollection.getValueCount("a");    // 2
myCollection.getValueCount("b");    // 1
myCollection.getValueCount("c");    // 0

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Collection#isEmpty()

Returns true if the Collection is empty.

Method

/**
 * @return {boolean}
 */
isEmpty: function() {

Parameters

  • None

Returns

  • {true} - True if the Collection is empty.

Examples

Empty Collection

var myCollection    = new Collection([]);

myCollection.isEmpty();     // true

Not empty Collection

var myCollection    = new Collection([
    "a"
]);

myCollection.isEmpty();     // false

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Collection#iterator()

This method generates an iterator for this Collection.

Notes

  • Because of the way javascript works and the current lack of Iterator support across browsers. Iterators create a snap shot of the values in the Collection before starting the iteration process. If a value is modified in one iteration and then visited at a later time, its value in the loop is its value when the iteration was started.
  • A value that is deleted before it has been visited WILL be visited later.
  • Values added to the Collection over which iteration is occurring will be omitted from iteration.
  • Iteration order of a Collection is not guaranteed.

Method

/**
 * @return {IIterator}
 */
iterator: function() {

Parameters

  • None

Returns

Examples

Iterate Collection

var myCollection    = new Collection([
    "a",
    "b",
    "c"
]);

var iterator = myCollection.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()) {
    var value = iterator.next();
}

Iterate past end of Collection

var myCollection    = new Collection([
    "a",
    "b",
    "c"
]);

var iterator = myCollection.iterator();
iterator.next();    // "a"
iterator.next();    // "b"
iterator.next();    // "c"
iterator.next();    // throws and Exception of type "NoSuchElement"
