clues-compiler

Optimizing compiler for clues modules

Applies various clues optimizations to functions

• Pre-processes function arguments for faster execution time
• Check for $private and $prep

How to use:

// just add this to the top of your index module
require('clues-compiler')();

node -r clues-compiler index.js

Once loaded, subsequent requires that are a child of a determined directory will be optimized. Defaults to the directory of the parent module, otherwise uses the current directory.

A specific directory can be optimized:

require('clues-compiler')({dirname:path.join(__dirname,'clues-stuff')});

To restrict modules or directories from being processed, provide an array of pathnames

require('clues-compiler')({ restrict: [
  path.join(__dirname,'node_modules'),
  path.join(__dirname,'graphql')
]});

What it does:

// takes this
class Foo {
  bar(a) {
    const ff = Math.sqrt(100) + Math.random();
    return (b,c) => a+b+c+ff;
  }
  a() { return 5; }
  b() { return 6; }
}

// and turns it into this
function WRAPFN(args, private, prep, fn) {
  fn.__args__ = args;
  if (private) { fn.private = true; }
  if (prep) { fn.prep = true; }
  return fn;
}
const ARGS_1 = ['b','c'];
class Foo {
  bar(a) {
    const ff = Math.sqrt(100) + Math.random();
    return WRAPFN(ARGS_1, false, false, (b,c) => a+b+c+ff);
  }
  a() { return 5; }
  b() { return 6; }
}
