Workflows or Functions in Meta Framework

The Meta Framework allows you to write business logic in Typescript and Javascript functions or YAML Workflows

You may use any language depending on your choice. We suggest to prefer Typescript over Javascript for type check reasons. And we recommend to use YAML when you wish to express logic in minimal lines of code. In the end, all three ways will allow you to express any business logic based on your needs.

Writing event handler functions​

Typescript​

module.exports = function greet(GSContext: ctx){
    return `Hello ${ctx.inputs.data.query.name}!`;
}

Javascript​

module.exports = function greet(ctx){
    return `Hello ${ctx.inputs.data.query.name}!`;
}

Yaml​

summary: greet the user
description: this function greets the user by accepting the user name
tasks:
  - id: greet_task
    fn: greetings
    args:
      name: <%inputs.query.name%>
