Sammy Js

Sammy.js is a JavaScript framework for building client-side single page applications. It uses RESTful routing and callbacks to handle asynchronous events. Sammy.js aims to provide a Sinatra-like experience for JavaScript applications, allowing routes, callbacks, and events to be defined similarly to how they are in Sinatra. The framework is lightweight, unobtrusive and can be dropped into any JavaScript project. It also supports namespacing to avoid collisions when using multiple instances.

1. Beautiful
closure
syntax
function(some, args) {
return args;
}
(some, args) -> args
function() {
return $('nav a.current');
}
() -> $('nav a.current')
-> $('nav a.current')
this.get '#/issue-:issue/', (context) ->
render context.params['issue']
2. Implicit
best
practices
if (typeof elvis != "undefined"
&& elvis !== null) {
alert("I knew it!");
}
alert "I knew it!" if elvis?
lunch = eat food for food in
['toast', 'cheese', 'wine']
var food, lunch, _i, _len, _ref;
_ref = ['toast', 'cheese', 'wine'];
for (_i = 0, _len = _ref.length; _i < _len; _i++) {
food = _ref[_i];
lunch = eat(food);
}
3. Things
rubyists
like
Everything
is an
expression
grade = (student) ->
if student.excellentWork
"A+"
else if student.okayStuff
if student.triedHard then "B" else "B-"
else
"C"
var grade;
grade = function(student) {
if (student.excellentWork) {
return "A+";
} else if (student.okayStuff) {
if (student.triedHard) {
return "B";
} else {
return "B-";
}
} else {
return "C";
}
};
String
interpolation
(str) ->
"This is #{str}ing awesome"
(function(str) {
return "This is " +
str +
"ing awesome";
});
"It's
just
JavaScript"
ANY
HOW
app = $.sammy ->
this.get '#/', ->
$('body').html('Sup?')

$ ->
app.run()
routes
get '#/', -> ...
match
+
callback
get '#/:name', ->
  this.render
    "/#{this.params['name']}.haml",
    {},
    (data) ->
      $('article')
.attr('class', name)
.html(data)
forms
<form action="#/form" method="PUT">
  <label>Email</label>
  <input type="text" name="email" />
  <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
put '#/form', ->
  $.put "/some/api",
{email: this.params['email']}, ->
     $.flash("Saved your address!")
  false
events
just like jQuery
run

lookup-route

run-route

redirect

...
bind 'redirect', (data) ->
$('#flash .info').html(
"redirecting to #{data.to}"
)
bind 'location-changed', ->
updateSidebar this.path
custom ones too
get '#/profile', ->
  this.trigger 'refresh-stats'
  this.render "/profile.haml",
{},
(data) ->
     $('article')
.attr('class', 'profile')
.html(data)
bind 'refresh-stats', ->
  $.get "/profile/stats.json",
{},
(data) ->
     this.trigger 'update-stats', data

bind 'update-stats', (e, data) ->


  $('.followers').html data['followers']
  $('.followings').html data['followings']
self-contained
namespaced
drop it in anywhere
app = $.sammy ->
this.get '#/', -> ...

$ ->
app.run()
app = $.sammy '#new-bit', ->
this.get '#/', -> ...

$ ->
app.run()
content = $.sammy '#content', ->
this.get '#/', -> ...

compose = $.sammy '#compose', ->


this.get '#/', -> ...

$ ->
content.run()
