Introduction

coffeelib is a tool to create isomorphic libraries with CoffeeScript. You can install it globally with

npm install coffeelib -g

and then use

coffeelib new NAME

to create a directory named NAME and a new library inside of it. For example, coffeelib new name0.

After entering the directory with cd name0, you can use

• npm test;
• coffeelib build;
• coffeelib watch;

npm test

is to run the tests. coffeelib creates all new libraries with a basic function and a basic test for it.

coffeelib build

is to build the library. It compiles the sources in the src directory to the lib directory.

It creates automatically a ES module wrapper for a CommonJS module. This allows to use the library both with require and import.

coffeelib watch(or npm start)

is to rebuild the library when the sources in the src directory change.
