H-Ubu is a component model for Javascript. Javascript componentization aims to modularize Javascript code in order to improve the testability, the maintainability and the scalability of javascript applications. Indeed, Javascript is the poor-child of web app technologies. The toolset for Javascript is really like in comparison of Java toolset. Unit testings, static analysis, managed execution are totally new for Javascript. The flexibility and the design of the language makes those tools a stringent requirement for code scalability. Especially since the last years were Javascript became main stream and is used by mostly all web app stack. H-Ubu is a component framework for Javascript facing the mentioned issues.
H-Ubu's main features are:
- component definition : the code is organized into components
- component injections : components can be injected in other components
- contract-based interactions : component implements and uses contract (i.e. interface)
- synchronous and asynchronous component communication : components can interact using method call and events
- architecture description : the application is composed by registering components and binding them
- component configuration : components can be configured
- test : components are testable !
- component separations: component are developed in separated files, the application code is then scalable
