1. JavaScript Micro Services Simon Kaegi 27 March 2012

2. What are Micro Services? OSGi minus the modularity

3. … about software development in a browser

4. Orion and OSGi Modularity e4 – OSGi style modularity in JavaScript { "Bundle-SymbolicName":"sample.jsbundle", "Bundle-Version":"1.0", "Bundle-ScriptPath":"script.js", "Import-Package":"a.resource;version=[1.0.0,2.0.0)", "Export-Package":"sample.resource;version=1.0.0", "Require-Bundle:"some.other.bundle“ } AMD – RequireJS define(["dojo", "orion/serviceregistry", "dojo/DeferredList"], function(dojo, mServiceregistry){… return exports});

6. Orion Plugins Orion applications are NOT made up of plugins Orion pages are designed to be 'extended' with plugins Orion plugins are 'separate' HTML pages hosted in non-visible IFrames Can be cross origin and communicate using HTML5 postMessage which is ASYNC Plugins are isolated and secure against direct modification of the hosting page

10. Orion Extensibility registerService(INTERFACE_NAME, IMPLEMENTATION, PROPERTIES) In-page Plugin

11. Comparing OSGi and Orion Service APIs Orion provides a nearly complete implementation of the Service API from OSGi BundleContext ServiceReference, ServiceRegistration, … service listeners, event types Use Strings instead of java.lang.class when referencing Service interfaces All Service calls return a “promise” – needed to abstract asynchronous service implementations No ServiceTracker currently originally built into getService but this was a mistake

13. What’s next Declarative Services wire.js – extends Asynchronous Module Definition define([“wire!aService", “wire!anotherService], function(aService, anotherService){…}); Configuration Admin and Metatype Services Permission Policy and Admin
