PlanOut.js

============= PlanOut.js is a JavaScript-based implementation of PlanOut. It provides a complete implementation of the PlanOut native API framework and a PlanOut language interpreter.

PlanOut.js is implemented in ES6, and can also be used with ES5.

##Installation##

PlanOut.js is available on npm and can be installed by running:

npm install planout

##Comparison with Reference Implementation##

PlanOut.js provides an implementation of all PlanOut features (including the experiment class, interpreter, and namespaces).

##Usage##

Here is how you would use PlanOut.js with ES6:

import PlanOut from 'planout';

class MyExperiment extends PlanOut.Experiment {
	
	configure_logger() {
		return;
		//configure logger
	}

	log(event) {
		//log the event somewhere
	}

	previously_logged() {
		//check if we’ve already logged an event for this user
	}

	setup() {
		//set experiment name, etc.
	}
	
	assign(params, args) {
		params.set('foo', new PlanOut.Ops.Random.UniformChoice({choices: ['a', 'b'], ‘unit’: args.id}));
	}

}

Then, to use this experiment you would simply need to do:

var exp = new MyExperiment({id: user.id });
console.log("User has foo param set to " + exp.get('foo'));

An example of using PlanOut.js with ES5 can be [found here] (https://github.com/facebook/planout/blob/master/alpha/js/examples/sample_planout_es5.js), An example with the PlanOut interpreter can be found here

Development

---

This project uses Jest for testing. The tests can be found in the tests folder and running the tests simply requires running the command: npm test

Transpile to ES5

---

If you are making changes to the ES6 implementation, simply run grunt and it will transpile to the corresponding ES5 code.
