abstract-thingsΒΆ

abstract-things is a JavaScript library that provides a simple base for building libraries that interact with physical things, such as IoT-devices, and virtual things.

This library provides a base class named Thing that supports mixins of various types. Things are described using two types of tags, one describing the type of the thing and one describing its capabilities. Things are also expected to describe their public API, to make remote use easier.

Types and capabilities are designed to be stable and to be combined. When combined they describe a thing and what it can do.

Note

This documentation is a work in progress. Things are missing and may sometimes be inaccurate. Please open issues on Github if you find something that seems wrong.
