Canal.js is a lightweight JavaScript library for creating channels, which are objects that represent a stream of events.

In the same way that RSVP.js is a compact implementation of Promises/A+ that other library authors can use in their promise-based APIs, we intend library authors to use Canal.js for the building blocks of their channel-based APIs. Hopefully, this will allow for easy composition between channels created by different libraries.

In keeping with the Unix philosophy, it is a modular library that does one thing and does it well.

grunt

The following will monitor your code, tests and vendored dependencies and rebuild them as needed:

grunt server           # http://127.0.0.1:8000/
PORT=9292 grunt server # http://127.0.0.1:9292/

grunt test         # headless testing (phantom + node)
grunt test:node    # node
grunt test:phantom # phantom
grunt server       # browser (navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8000)

• to bower (via github.com/components/<repo_name>)
• npm

grunt build-release release-it:0.0.1

• npm

npm install <package_name> --save     # runtime dependency
npm install <package_name> --save-dev # dev-dependency
