Zenbrain

Zenbrain is an integrated Node.js toolkit for building "intelligent" programs, capable of responding to and learning from real-world data. At its heart is an efficient data processing pipeline, and a modular event handling workflow. Zenbrain includes:

  • a clean, pluggable framework
  • a map/reduce pipeline for live-computing against APIs
  • a method for defining custom bot logic with simple JS functions

zenbrain.js

Exports a basic API for building a new program with Zenbrain embedded in it.

USAGE

In your program folder, npm install --save zenbrain, and then create an executable file:

#!/usr/bin/env node
var version = require('./package.json').version
USER_AGENT = 'your_program/' + version
var zenbrain = require('zenbrain')
var brain = zenbrain(__dirname, 'your_program')
brain.cli()

Zenbrain will now spawn a new CLI app for you containing some default commands. See this guide for how to build your own program.

config.js

The default configuration is here. overridden by placing a config.js in your program's folder.

_codemap.js

Exposes zenbrain as a codemap. Advanced users only :)
