Introduction

The Funk library supports functional development in Haxe. Some of its key features are:

• Utilities to avoid boilerplate code
  • Currying
  • Lazy evaluation
  • Closure wrapping
  • Continuations (Not to confuse with continuation-passing style)
• Actor model
  • Reactor support
  • ModelViewController support, via a Facade.
  • WebWorker support (initial working example)
  • Ask support, via Futures
• Immutable collections
• Reactive streams
• Futures (Promises)
• Option type
• Tuple type
• IoC Container (no reflections, no Metadata and immutable!)
• Signals
• Logging

Building

The Funk library doesn't not necessarily build anything as it's a library. So the idea is to import those into your project, which you can do in the following ways.

Haxelib - Stable Release

• Make sure haxelib is setup (run haxelib setup)
• haxelib install funk
• Inside your .hxml file you use for compiling your haxe project add the following line -lib funk

Haxelib - Beta Release (aka Git release)

• Make sure haxelib is setup (run haxelib setup)
• haxelib git funk https://github.com/SimonRichardson/funk.git funk
• Inside your .hxml file you use for compiling your haxe project add the following line -lib funk

Commando styleé (unsupported)

• Download the branch zip file from github
• Extract the zip file and dump it into your haxe path.

More information about building can be found here using_haxelib

Testing

Setup

The Funk library is unit tested with munit testing library for more information refer to the guide. Suffice it to say you'll need to install munit via haxelib

• haxelib install munit
• haxelib install hamcrest

Unit testing

Once that's in installed (installs other dependencies) you can then run the tests by calling the following command from the root directory.

haxelib run munit test -nogen -js -as3

Note: There is an issue building neko so the ci server is also down, once this has been rectified then I'll post commands to get this also running.

Coverage

Alternatively you can also run full coverage as well, to help see what tests are covering what.

haxelib run munit test -nogen -coverage -js -as3

Note: Actor coverage is really low and needs to be updated.
