The class module provides object-oriented programming techniques, including inheritance and mixins, to the Anchor platform.

$ component install anchorjs/class

$ volo add anchorjs/class

To inherit a class from a subclass, invoke inherits(), passing the constructor and super constructor as arguments.

function Cat() {
  Cat.super_.call(this);
};
clazz.inherits(Cat, Animal);

To augment a class with functions of a mixin object, invoke augment().

var HousePet = {
  eat: function() {},
  sleep: function() {}
}
clazz.augment(Cat, HousePet);

This module uses the AMD format. To include in component builds, use component-amd:

component build -u component-amd

To run tests in a browser, execute the Make target for the desired browser:

$ make test-chrome
$ make test-firefox
$ make test-safari

Headless tests can be executed directly from a terminal:

$ make test-phantomjs
