library0.0.94jsnpmunverified

Chimera-Framework is a language-agnostic framework for standalone and distributed computing, written in Node.js. Version 0.0.94 is the latest stable release, with low release cadence (last commit in 2018). It uses a component-based approach where components can be written in any language or even be binary executables. Orchestration is done via CHIML, a YAML superset. Key differentiators: language-agnostic components, CHIML-based workflow definition, supports both standalone and distributed modes.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ import chimera from 'chimera-framework'

✗ const chimera = require('chimera-framework')

Package is ESM-only; CommonJS require will not work.

Chimera

✓ import { Chimera } from 'chimera-framework'

✗ const { Chimera } = require('chimera-framework')

Named export for the main class.

CLI

✓ import { CLI } from 'chimera-framework'

CLI export for command-line interface usage.

Shows basic usage: create Chimera instance, define a simple CHIML workflow that echoes a greeting, and run it with input.

import { Chimera } from 'chimera-framework'; const chimera = new Chimera(); const workflow = ` ins: name out: output do: - |echo Hello, {name}! -> output `; const result = await chimera.run(workflow, { name: 'World' }); console.log(result); // "Hello, World!"

Debug

Known issues

gotchaPackage uses ESM modules; require() will throw an error.

fix

Use import syntax or enable ESM in your project.

affects: >=0.0.93

deprecatedThe CLI global command 'chimera' may not work with newer Node versions due to breaking changes in global package execution.

fix

Use npx chimera or run via import in a script.

affects: >=0.0.90

gotchaWorkflow execution is asynchronous; forgetting await may lead to undefined results.

fix

Always await chimera.run() or use .then().

affects: >=0.0.0
