This repo contains the Alfred Botler CLI and TypeScript utilities needed for the Construct 3 Framework.

Since the framework is customizable you can install this package by yourself and setup things manually but using the previously mentioned template is highly encourage.

You can install this package through NPM using this repo URL:

npm install https://github.com/MasterPose/c3-framework

A normal structure for a project would look something like this:

/dist
/examples
├── example.c3p
└── example.png
/export
/src
├── /lang
│   ├── de-DE.json
│   └── es-MX.json
├── /libs
│   ├── mylib.ts
│   └── style.css
├── addon.ts
├── editor.ts
├── icon.svg
├── instance.ts
└── runtime.ts
c3.config.js
tsconfig.json

All the paths are customizable creating a c3.config.js on the root of the project.

You can check the template for more information.

You can run the following to see all the available commands:

npx alfred

You can build your project using:

npm run build

You can run a development server using:

npx alfred build --dev

You can generate documentation using:

npx alfred doc

The C3 Framework offers a coupled workflow for defining ACEs. You define the configuration of your ACEs by marking your code using TypeScript decorators.

To start you must tell to Alfred on what classes your ACEs will be defined, by using the @AceClass decorator. After that, you can start coding your logic in a natural way, marking functions and parameters with their respective decorators, and using the C3 types (such as combo, cmp, eventvar, etc.) automatically loaded from the framework:

import { AceClass, Behavior, Condition, Param } from "c3-framework";
import Config from "./addon";

const opts = [
  'test',
  'something',
  'another',
];

@AceClass()
class Instance extends Behavior.Instance(Config) {
  constructor() {
    super();
  }

  @Condition('Is Enabled')
  isEnabled() {
    return true;
  }

  @Condition('Is "{0}" Something')
  isSomething(
    @Param({
      items: [
        { test: 'Test' },
        { something: 'Something' },
        { another: 'Another' },
      ],
    })
    tag: combo // Notice that the Construct types are available to use on TypeScript
    // tag: Cnd.combo // You can also access them through the `Cnd` or `Act` namespaces
  ) {
    return opts[tag] == 'something';
  }
}

export default Instance;

This is the default c3.config.js configuration loaded:

/** @type {import("c3-framework").BuildConfig} */
export default {
    minify: true,
    host: 'http:https://localhost',
    port: 3000,
    sourcePath: 'src/',
    runtimeScript: 'runtime.ts',
    addonScript: 'addon.ts',
    exportPath: 'export/',
    distPath: 'dist/',
    libPath: 'src/libs',
    langPath: 'src/lang',
    defPath: 'src/',
    examplesPath: 'examples/',
    defaultLang: 'en-US',
}

Thanks to Skymen and the ConstructFund for the efforts on making the C3IDE2, project that originated this framework.
