The Javascript bindings for EFL are available in two flavors: A node.js module and direct embedding with libv8. Both are built on top of the libv8 JS engine. + +Below follows a list of the EFL modules covered by the javascript bindings. For node.js users, all are available through the module **efl**. + +<code javascript> +var efl = require('efl'); +</code> + +Supported modules + + * [[api/javascript/ecore|Ecore]] - Operating system abstraction and integration. + * [[api/javascript/eio|Eio]] - Async input/output. + * [[api/javascript/eina|Eina]] - Data types and basic abstractions. + * [[api/javascript/ethumb|Ethumb]] - Generate thumbnail images of files. + * [[api/javascript/eldbus|Eldbus]] - Dbus-integration. + +===== Under the hood ===== + +The Javascript binding is split into two big parts. The first is a //manual// binding, wich is described in this documentation. The //automatic// binding covers the Eo-based classes, built with automatically-generated code and will be covered later. + +Due to the C++ being the native language of the libv8, it's was also used to write the bindings, with the help of the C++ bindings for EFL. \ No newline at end of file --
