Harcon - Messaging/Service Bus for the harmonic convergence of node-based enterprise entities

======== harcon is a enterprise-level service bus for NodeJS giving high abstractation layer for interoperability between entities in a highly structured and fragmented ecosystem.

The library has a stunning feature list beyond basic rest functionality.

Just a few examples: (far from incomplete): ... Features to be introduced

!Note: Harcon's concept is to introduce an clean and high abstration layer over messaging between entities. Like in case of every abstraction tool, for simple webapps or plain REST services, it can be proven as a liability.

This frameworks start to shine in a highly structured and distributed environment.

Installation

$ npm install harcon

Quick setup

var Inflicter = require('../lib/Inflicter');

// [logger instance]
var winston = require('winston');
var logger = new (winston.Logger)({
	transports: [
		new (winston.transports.Console)( { level: 'debug' } )
	]
});

var inflicter = new Inflicter( logger );

// define a listener function listening every message withing the context "morning"
inflicter.addict('steve', 'morning.*', function(greetings, callback){
	callback(null, 'Leave me please!');
} );

// define an listener object listening every message withing the context "greet"
var alice = {
	name: 'alice',
	handler: function(greetings1, greetings2, callback){
		callback( null, 'Hello there!' );
	}
};
inflicter.addicts( alice, [ 'greet.*' ], [ alice.handler ] );

// sends a communication 'greet.everyone' with parameters and defines a callback to handle responses
inflicter.ignite( 'catty', 'greet.everyone', 'whatsup?', 'how do you do?', function(err, res){
	console.log( err, res );
} );
