fileSystem + gulpTasks

A Functional Approach to working with external files in FileMaker


####Module goals:

  • Read, diff, and write to files.
  • Node runtime + express server.
  • Provide a wide array of transformations to text and files through gulp.js integration.

####Design Philosophy:

  • Separate data concerns from application state as much as possible.
  • Find a "simple to comprehend, yet reusable in various ciscumstances" level of abstraction for the problem at hand
  • Focus on list processing ( scripts and functions should accept lists of params, rather than single params )

####Dependencies: webviews appArchitecture


###Roadmap:

  • 0.1: basic fileSystem commands (read, write, list dir + files, UI first draft)
  • 0.2: Gulp integration
  • 0.3: Code editor
  • 0.4:
  • 0.5:
  • 0.6: Add datomicFilemaker dependency to keep a stream of all modifications to files + possibility to go back in time or consult previous configs if setting is ON.
