# Okeanos
Node.js adapter for [Zephyros](https://github.com/sdegutis/zephyros) - the OS X window manager for hackers.

This is a fork of [`node-zephyros`](https://github.com/danielepolencic/node-zephyros) by [danielepolencic](https://github.com/danielepolencic). The main difference is that this uses a class based API where the original used a chaining system. Okeanos gives you a lot of control over objects.

## Usage
Include `okeanos` in your script and you're ready to go!

```coffeescript
Okeanos = require 'okeanos'

$ = new Okeanos()

$.bind('h', ['Cmd', 'Shift']).then ->
$.window.active().then (window) ->
window.nudge -100, 0

```

## React to events

**bind**
`bind( key, modifier )`
Listen to a particular key combination and fire the chain every time such
shortcut is triggered.

```coffeescript
$.bind('t', ['Cmd', 'Shift']).then ->
console.log 'Hey, you pressed t+⌘⌃'
```

**listen**
`listen( event )`
Listen to a particular event and fire the chain every time this event occurs.
A comprehensive list of events is available [here](https://github.com/sdegutis/zephyros/blob/master/Docs/Protocol.md)

```coffeescript
$.listen('window_created').then ->
console.log 'Hey, you created a new window!'
```

## Preloading

This helps a lot with callback hell.

```coffeescript
$.window.active().then (window) ->
window.getTitle().then (title) ->
window.getFrame().then (frame) ->
window.getScreen().then (screen) ->
console.log title, frame, screen
```

You can use it by requesting all the info at the same time via `model.preload()`.

```coffeescript
$.window.active().then (window) ->
window.preload('title', 'frame', 'screen').then ->
console.log window.title, window.frame, window.screen
```

Even better is that you can use preloading directly on `okeanos.window.*`, `okeanos.screen.*` and `okeanos.app.*` methods.

```coffeescript
$.window.active('title', 'frame', 'screen').then (window) ->
console.log window.title, window.frame, window.screen
```
