@mnjs/radio

Named channels for events and request/reply, usable without Marionette core or a DOM.

npm install --save-exact @mnjs/[email protected]

import { Radio, createRadio } from '@mnjs/radio';

const channel = Radio.channel('app');
channel.reply('title', () => 'Hello');
channel.on('refresh', () => console.log('Refreshing'));
channel.request('title');
channel.trigger('refresh');

const isolatedRadio = createRadio();

Radio is the default instance also exported by marionette. Within the same module format and package installation, either import reaches the same channels. createRadio() creates an independent channel registry. Each createMarionette() runtime also owns its own Radio instance; use that runtime's Radio when binding its objects and applications.

The package depends on @mnjs/utils, which supplies Events and shared helpers. It does not depend on core. ESM and CommonJS exports include Radio, createRadio, Channel, Requests, and their public types. ESM and CommonJS each have their own default instance; do not mix the two formats to share a channel registry.

Radio, utils, data, adapters, and core are versioned and released together.

Version-matched reference

The matching marionette package includes the canonical reference. If core is installed, open node_modules/marionette/docs/packages/radio.md for channel scope, all event and request/reply methods, cleanup, standalone composition, logging, and TypeScript contracts. Core remains unnecessary for standalone Radio use.

Application and MnObject owner bindings are documented separately in node_modules/marionette/docs/api/shared/common.md#declarative-radio-bindings. General project information is available on the Marionette website.
