jssm

jssm

A Javascript state machine with a simple API. Well tested, and typed with Flowtype. MIT license.

TL;DR

Specify finite state machines with a brief syntax. Run them. Derive charts from them. Save and load states. Make factories. Impress friends and loved ones. Cure corns and callouses.

const traffic_light = new jssm.machine({

  initial_state : 'Red',

  transitions   : [
    { action: 'Proceed', from:'Green',  to:'Yellow' },
    { action: 'Proceed', from:'Yellow', to:'Red'    },
    { action: 'Proceed', from:'Red',    to:'Green'  }
  ]

});

traffic_light.state();            // 'Red'
traffic_light.action('Proceed'); 
traffic_light.state();            // 'Yellow'
traffic_light.action('Proceed'); 
traffic_light.state();            // 'Green'
