javascript

Core typescript library for fetching data, handling JSON-AD parsing, storing data, signing Commits, setting up WebSockets and full-text search and more.

Runs in most common JS contexts like the browser, node, bun etc.

Installation

npm install @tomic/lib

TL;DR

Create a Store

import { Store, Agent, core } from '@tomic/lib';

const store = new Store({
  // You can create a secret from the `User settings` page using the AtomicServer UI
  agent: Agent.fromSecret('my-secret-key'),
  // Set a default server URL
  serverUrl: 'https://my-atomic-server.dev',
});

Fetching a resource and reading its data

// When the class is known.
const resource = await store.getResource<Person>('https://my-atomic-server.dev/some-resource');
const job = resource.props.job;

// When the class is unknown
const resource = await store.getResource('https://my-atomic-server.dev/some-resource');
const job = resource.get(myOntology.properties.job);

Editing a resource

resource.set(core.properties.description, 'Hello World');

// Commit the changes to the server.
await resource.save();

Creating a new resource

const newResource = await store.newResource({
  isA: myOntology.classes.person,
  propVals: {
    [core.properties.name]: 'Jeff',
  },
});

// Commit the new resource to the server.
await newResource.save();

Subscribing to changes

// --------- Subscribe to changes (using websockets) ---------
const unsub = store.subscribe('https://my-atomic-server.dev/some-resource', resource => {
  // This callback is called each time a change is made to the resource on the server.
  // Do something with the changed resource...
});
