CorrelatorJs

A simple javascript module to support the correlator sharp package.

Installation

Currently in beta, so beware.

npm install correlatorjs --save

Usage

You can use the provided service to interact with the current scope and create new sub scopes.

// This is the easiest way to create a new scopevarscope=newActivityScope('name_of_scope',null,null);// Activity scope is really best used as a singleton though.// Change the current scope. ActivityScope.new('myController');// Nest a context as a child scope.ActivityScope.child('myController_child');// The id of the 'myController_child' scope.varcurrentCorrelationId=ActivityScope.current.id.value;// The id of the 'myController' scope.varparentCorrelationId=ActivityScope.current.parent.id.value;// Generate a new root scopeActivityScope.create('myApp');

Addins

This package currently come pre packaged with a number of extras, including ActivityScope initialisers for the standard ngRoute module and also the ui.router routing modules.

It also has a tracing logger for Azure's Application Insights tracing.

As the package grows and new logging frameworks and front-end frameworks are added, these will be broken out into their own packages.

Todo

1. Add support for other app frameworks
   • Ember - I literally have no idea about this framework.
   • React - Really should be a store in the flux ideal of single direction data flow.
   • Backbone - This has a sort of implementation in the angul;ar package.
   • etc.
2. Add support for other client side logging frameworks
   • log4js
   • logentries
   • splunk
   • etc
3. Nail down the scope for the activity in a consistant way
   • Any custom preference is currently supported of course.
   • GET (form or page or ajax data)?
   • UI state?
