Muve is a micro library for building interactive javascript applications. Muve is built around a basic concept, changes to the model update the view. There are three parts to an application built with Muve; A model to represent the state of your application, functions that serve as an api for updating your model, and a view to describe that model.
A progressive web app that features routing, code-splitting, and gives an idea of how to structure larger apps.
npm i --save muve or yarn add muve
import muve, {h, interact} from 'muve';
// The model
const model = {counter: 0};
// interact creates helpers for checking & changing the model.
const {getModel, setModel} = interact(model);
function updateCounter(value) {
const {counter} = getModel();
// Validate that the count can be changed
if (value < 0 && counter < 1) return;
// update the model with the new counter
setModel({counter: counter + value});
}
// The view function represents the model
function view(model) {
return <h2>{model.counter}</h2>;
}
// Finally give the view, model, and target element to muve
muve(view, model, document.getElementById('root'));
// for simplicity we will update the counter every second
setInterval(() => updateCounter(1), 1000);For more in depth examples be sure to look at the demos.
In an attempt to keep things simple, muve exposes only three functions one of which is to enable the use of jsx.
Initializes a muve application, this performs some setup and does the initial render of the view.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| view | Function | The entry point of your application |
| init | Object | The initial model of your application |
| target | HTMLElement | The element muve should attach itself to |
| hydrate | Boolean | Set to true if the page was server rendered |
Void
Used to convert jsx to js objects. Import this function in any file where you wish to use jsx.
Given your initial model, interact returns two functions for interacting with your model.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| model | Object | The initial model of your application |
| log | Function? | Executed each time setModel is called with a name |
Object- getModel
- setModel
Returns the current model.
Object
When executed the update will be applied to your application's model, your view function will be executed, and the DOM will be patched.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| update | Object | A part of your model you wish to change |
| name | String? | Name your updates to have them logged |
Void
