Simple Javascript eXtension Framework

The simple Javascript eXtension framework (jx in short) implements wrappers around common tasks performed on DOM object, JSON object and implements various utilities like design patterns for easy handling of collections as well as mathematic functions and some basic machine learning techniques and models. Jx doesn't get in the way of other frameworks like jQuery; Dojo; Mootools; Backbone; Boostrap. We put in a concerted effort to keep it simple yet useful.

dom.js:

This file is intended to handle DOM objects via jx.dom namespace. The namespace will rely on DOM object identifiers (ID) with a few exceptions of radio & checkboxes. The handling is mostly around getting and setting data on various attributes. The focus of a dom object is mostly centered around a single DOM object,

We advise using utils.js in order to handle collections of DOM objects as utils.js implements various utilities and industry standard design patterns

This implementation is designed by W3C specifications of HTML5 and will integrate well with other frameworks that do so. In addition we tried to mildly specify preconditions for executions of functions

rpc.js: This file is designed to handle http requests post, get, put of data and submitting form data as well as uploading of files. The interface we have chosen is intended to be simple: HttpClient.instance Creates an instance of an httpclient httpclient.get(:url,:callback) The object's member performs an http call with GET method and a callback method

utils.js:

Implementation of miscellaneous utilities commonly used, These functions are reusable and simple:

jx.utils.vector extracts a vector from an array of objects (or a matrix) jx.utils.keys extract keys from an associative array jx.utils.unique returns unique objects in an array, including array of objects (provided an key function)

jx.utils.patterns: Implementation of design patterns defined by the GOF http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_design_pattern

jx.utils.patterns.visitor The visitor design pattern jx.utils.patterns.iterator The iterator design pattern jx.utils.patterns.observer The observer design pattern
