disuware

Application initialization like a boss!

Install it

disuware is a cli tool, so it's best installed globally: npm install -g disuware.

Use it

disuware is a cli tool which uses a subcommand style for using it. The following subcommands are available:

run

Description: Loads given config file and executes it as process.

Example: disuware run myconfig.json

list

Description: Loads given config file and lists all corresponding modules. The list can be costumized by options.

Example: disuware list myconfig.json

Option: -l, --linked: Attempts to link the modules. This might fail, if not all necessary modules exist.

Option: -d, --dependencies: Prints the dependencies of the modules as well.

What does it do (short story)

In short, disuware is a CLI tool for starting nodejs applications, which are built by composing modules by interface, not by name. Disuware will provide a dependency injection system on top of the nodejs native module loading to enable you composing your modules, as well as load the modules itself in an order, that they work well.

So basically you can switch out modules (node-modules) with other modules, that implement the same interface, and disuware will handle linking them correctly.

For a longer description see docs/what-does-it-do-long-story.md.

Why?

Well, I've got 2 problems: Reuse and replacing.

First problem is reuse. I love to write components for my software, that solve a specific problem for me and reuse it in different projects, but each project is slightly different. So I want to reuse my stuff, but have to replace some components without breaking all the other stuff (and without refactoring all require-calls each time again).

In Java most of this stuff is solved by standardizing things. You've got JDBC for databases or servelets for webstuff, but in JS - no. There are some APIs like Express or React, that are reimplemented in different other libs, have the same API, but the modules explicitly name the other dependencies. For frontend we define webpack aliases, for node... Well, for node you've got disuware :)
