NodObjC exposes the Objective-C runtime to NodeJS in a high-level, easy to use fashion. It uses the BridgeSupport files to dynamically generate an API from an Objective-C "Framework" at runtime, and uses node-ffi to dynamically interact with Objective-C's runtime.

Essentially, NodObjC is similar in nature to the other popular Objetive-C scripting bridges:

• JSCocoa
• PyObjC
• CocoaRuby

So you can write Objective-C based applications entirely with Node and JavaScript! Eventually even iOS native apps as well! So what are you waiting for? Get to coding!

Note: This lib is still very much under development. It is not ready for primetime quite yet. Watch this project to follow the updates!

var $ = require('NodObjC');

// First you need to "load" the Framework
var F = $.import('Foundation');

// Setup the recommended NSAutoreleasePool instance
F.NSAutoreleasePool('alloc')('init');

// Now let's create an NSMutableArray
var array = F.NSMutableArray('alloc')({ 'initWithCapacity': 3 });

// Add some JS objects to the array
array({ 'addObject': "Hello World!" });
array({ 'addObject': { an: 'object' } });
array({ 'addObject': NSMutableArray });

// Print out the contents (calling [array description])
console.log(array);
