flux inspired modular javascript framework

its-framework

its-framework is a lightweight script that manages state and events for elements. It's heavily inspired by flux and modular pattern design.

its-framework encourages a centralized approach in a modular environment. The global state and event manager unifies just enough to keep the complex operations of a team environment in a centralized location. The core organizing principle is to delegate all events and capture a view and state relationship between elements. By adding its-control or its-view attributes its-framework will keep an ongoing capture/update process on all corresponding elements. its-framework caching structure does not include a virtual DOM but is optimized with efficient array access queries after an initial document scan.

its-framework's Issues

Efficient object state access

Issue
Using string properties to reference objects may not be efficient for elements defining the keypress, keydown and keyup events.

Possible solutions

• Cache the object properties
• Look up the object at least once and save it the element (similar to the cache views idea)

Tested on
N/A

Reproduce the issue
This issue may initialized by applying an object property attribute to any element supporting keypress, keydown and keyup events. Add a callback function that prints out when the event is fired.

its-control stops working after adding a dot.

Expected behaviour
Let's say we have two inputs:

<input its-control="1mxdmp">
<input its-control="1mxdmp">

Both inputs will share the same contents.

What happens
Once a dot is typed, the contents are not shared anymore accross inputs.
