Lumino Core Utilities

Lumino Core Utilities provides essential utility functions and classes for TypeScript/JavaScript applications, particularly those building rich desktop-like web applications. It includes comprehensive JSON type definitions and utilities, MIME data management, promise delegation, secure token generation, and cross-platform random number generation with UUID support.

Package Information

  • Package Name: @lumino/coreutils
  • Package Type: npm
  • Language: TypeScript
  • Installation: npm install @lumino/coreutils

Core Imports

import { JSONExt, MimeData, PromiseDelegate, Token, Random, UUID } from "@lumino/coreutils";

For CommonJS:

const { JSONExt, MimeData, PromiseDelegate, Token, Random, UUID } = require("@lumino/coreutils");

Individual imports:

import { JSONValue, JSONObject, JSONExt } from "@lumino/coreutils";
import { MimeData } from "@lumino/coreutils";
import { PromiseDelegate } from "@lumino/coreutils";
import { Token } from "@lumino/coreutils";
import { Random } from "@lumino/coreutils";
import { UUID } from "@lumino/coreutils";

Basic Usage

import { JSONExt, MimeData, PromiseDelegate, Token, Random, UUID } from "@lumino/coreutils";

// JSON utilities
const data = { name: "Alice", age: 30 };
const copy = JSONExt.deepCopy(data);
const isEmpty = JSONExt.deepEqual(data, JSONExt.emptyObject);

// MIME data handling
const mimeData = new MimeData();
mimeData.setData("text/plain", "Hello, World!");
mimeData.setData("application/json", JSON.stringify(data));

// Promise delegation
const delegate = new PromiseDelegate<string>();
delegate.resolve("Task completed");
await delegate.promise; // "Task completed"

// Secure tokens
const userToken = new Token<User>("user-token");
const configToken = new Token<Config>("config");

// Random number generation (cross-platform)
const buffer = new Uint8Array(16);
Random.getRandomValues(buffer);

// UUID generation
const id = UUID.uuid4(); // "f47ac10b-58cc-4372-a567-0e02b2c3d479"

Architecture

Lumino Core Utilities is designed with a modular, cross-platform architecture:

  • JSON System: Complete type-safe JSON handling with readonly and partial variants
  • MIME Management: Generic data storage system organized by MIME types
  • Promise Utilities: Separation of promise creation from resolution logic
  • Token System: Type-safe runtime tokens for dependency injection and object identity
  • Cross-Platform Abstraction: Unified APIs with platform-optimized implementations
  • Fallback Strategy: Graceful degradation when crypto APIs are unavailable

Capabilities

JSON Utilities

Comprehensive type system and utilities for type-safe JSON data manipulation with deep equality, copying, and type checking functions.

namespace JSONExt {
  const emptyObject: ReadonlyJSONObject;
  const emptyArray: ReadonlyJSONArray;
  function isPrimitive(value: ReadonlyPartialJSONValue): value is JSONPrimitive;
  function isArray(value: ReadonlyPartialJSONValue): boolean;
  function isObject(value: ReadonlyPartialJSONValue): boolean;
  function deepEqual(first: ReadonlyPartialJSONValue, second: ReadonlyPartialJSONValue): boolean;
  function deepCopy<T extends ReadonlyPartialJSONValue>(value: T): T;
}

JSON Utilities

MIME Data Management

Storage and management system for arbitrary data organized by MIME types, ideal for data transfer within applications.

class MimeData {
  types(): string[];
  hasData(mime: string): boolean;
  getData(mime: string): any | undefined;
  setData(mime: string, data: any): void;
  clearData(mime: string): void;
  clear(): void;
}

MIME Data Management

Promise Delegation

Promise wrapper that separates promise creation from resolution logic, useful for complex asynchronous workflows.

class PromiseDelegate<T> {
  readonly promise: Promise<T>;
  resolve(value: T | PromiseLike<T>): void;
  reject(reason: any): void;
}

Promise Delegation

Token System

Runtime tokens that capture compile-time type information for type-safe object identity and dependency injection.

class Token<T> {
  constructor(name: string);
  readonly name: string;
}

Token System

Random Number Generation

Cross-platform random number generation with cryptographically strong fallbacks and unified API across browser and Node.js environments.

namespace Random {
  const getRandomValues: (buffer: Uint8Array) => void;
}

function fallbackRandomValues(buffer: Uint8Array): void;

Random Number Generation

UUID Generation

RFC 4122 compliant UUID v4 generation with cryptographically strong randomness and cross-platform support.

namespace UUID {
  const uuid4: () => string;
}

function uuid4Factory(
  getRandomValues: (bytes: Uint8Array) => void
): () => string;

UUID Generation

Types

// JSON Types
type JSONPrimitive = boolean | number | string | null;
type JSONValue = JSONPrimitive | JSONObject | JSONArray;
interface JSONObject {
  [key: string]: JSONValue;
}
interface JSONArray extends Array<JSONValue> {}

// Readonly JSON Types
type ReadonlyJSONValue = JSONPrimitive | ReadonlyJSONObject | ReadonlyJSONArray;
interface ReadonlyJSONObject {
  readonly [key: string]: ReadonlyJSONValue;
}
interface ReadonlyJSONArray extends ReadonlyArray<ReadonlyJSONValue> {}

// Partial JSON Types (allows undefined)
type PartialJSONValue = JSONPrimitive | PartialJSONObject | PartialJSONArray;
interface PartialJSONObject {
  [key: string]: PartialJSONValue | undefined;
}
interface PartialJSONArray extends Array<PartialJSONValue> {}

// Readonly Partial JSON Types
type ReadonlyPartialJSONValue = JSONPrimitive | ReadonlyPartialJSONObject | ReadonlyPartialJSONArray;
interface ReadonlyPartialJSONObject {
  readonly [key: string]: ReadonlyPartialJSONValue | undefined;
}
interface ReadonlyPartialJSONArray extends ReadonlyArray<ReadonlyPartialJSONValue> {}
