Garbagebox

Type safe Javascript and uhh, Multi-threading

How do I do it

You just do it

npm i garbagebox

Supported types

box.number

box.function
box.symbol
box.null
box.undefined

GarbagePacks

const myPack = box.pack(() => {
    console.log('Hello world!');
});

myPack.data(); // Returns () => { console.log('Hello world!'); }
myPack.type(); // Returns 'GarbagePack'
myPack.run(); // Returns {}

const myPack2 = box.pack(() => {
    module.exports = 'Hello world!';
});

myPack.run(); // Returns 'Hello world!'

Multi-Threading

const myPack = box.pack(() => {
    console.log('Running in worker!');
    send('Hello world!');
    receive((message) => {
        console.log('From parent thread: ' + message);
    });
});

const spawner = box.spawn(myPack);
spawner.onMessage((data) => { console.log('From thread: ' + data); });

spawner.send('Hello World!');

Type safety

const x = box.new(box.number, 2);
const y = box.new(box.number, 3);

x.get() + y.get() // Returns 5

x.set(5)
x.get() + y.get() // Returns 8
