CoffeeNode TagTool

A simple in-memory tagging library.

Installation

npm install coffeenode-tagtool
TAGTOOL = require 'coffeenode-tagtool'

Usage

Tags must be registered before their first use; object IDs (OIDs) are registered implicitly by associating them with tags.


API

Note: below, @ represents the TagTool library, and me a TagTool Registry.

Object Creation

@new_registry = ->

Create a new tag registry; the Plain Old Object (POD) that is returned has the format

registry =
  '~isa':         'TAGTOOL/registry'
  '%oids':        {}      # cache; keys are OIDs; all values are 1
  'tags':         {}      # keys are tags; values are PODs whose keys are OIDs and whose values are 1
  'state':        null    # result of calling `@_new_state`

@register_tag = ( me, tag ) ->

Register a new tag in the library.

Tagging

@tag = ( me, oid, tag ) ->

@untag = ( me, oid, tag ) ->

Associate or disassociate a given OID and tag.

@tags_of = ( me, oid = null ) ->

Returns all the tags a given OID is associated with; if no OID is given, return a list of all registered tags in the given registry.

@has_tag = ( me, oid, tag ) ->

Return whether the given OID is associated with the given tag.

@oids_of = ( me, tag = null ) ->

Return all the OIDs that the given tag is associated with; if no tag is given, return a list of all the OIDs known to the given registry.

@is_known_tag = ( me, tag ) ->

@is_known_oid = ( me, oid ) ->

Return whether a given tag or OID is known to the given registry.

@get_max_tag_count = ( me ) ->

@get_max_oid_count = ( me ) ->

Selecting & Deselecting

@select_tag = ( me, tag ) ->

@deselect_tag = ( me, tag ) ->

Select or deselect the given tag. When a tag is selected, all the OIDs associated with that tag will likewise get selected; conversely, when a tag is deselected, all the OIDs that not associated with any other selected tag will get deselected. Example:

trg = TT.new_registry()
TT.new_tag      trg'fruit'
TT.new_tag      trg'domestic'
TT.new_tag      trg'exotic'
TT.new_tag      trg'sweet'
TT.new_tag      trg'sour'
TT.tag          trg'Apple',     'fruit'
TT.tag          trg'Apple',     'domestic'
TT.tag          trg'Apple',     'sweet'
TT.tag          trg'Pineapple''fruit'
TT.tag          trg'Pineapple''exotic'
TT.tag          trg'Pineapple''sour'
 
TT.select_tag   trg'fruit'  # selects also OIDs `Apple` and `Pineapple` 
 
TT.select_tag   trg'sweet'  # `Apple` is already selected, so no change 
 
TT.deselect_tag trg'fruit'  # `Pineapple` gets deselected, but as `Apple` is tagged `sweet` and `sweet` 
                              # is still selected, `Apple` stays selected. 

@select_oid = ( me, oid ) ->

@deselect_oid = ( me, oid ) ->

Select or deselect the given OID. When

@clear_selection = ( me ) ->

@get_selected_oids = ( me ) ->

@is_implicitly_selected_tag = ( me, tag ) ->

@is_selected_oid = ( me, oid ) ->

@is_selected_tag = ( me, tag ) ->

Private Methods

@_deselect_implicit_tags = ( me ) ->

@_get_all_oids = ( me ) ->

@_get_all_oids_and_max_oid_count = ( me ) ->

@_new_state = ( me ) ->

Given a TAGTOOL/registry, return a state object to record the selection status.

@_select_implicit_tags = ( me ) ->

@_tags_of = ( me, oid ) ->

@_update_tag_selection = ( me, tag ) ->
