This changes the easejs interface for DataApi, which requires adding the
param to everything. The TS interface was created in a previous commit and
already contained this parameter. The idea is to remove the easejs
interface in the future, but traits are a barrier to that atm.
DocumentServer and controller demonstrate the mess that we have with regards
to instantiating dependencies. This needs to change---DocumentServer itself
was something that was started but never fully realized. It makes this
incredibly confusing, difficult to follow, and complicates important error
handling that ought to be taking place. It also discourages implementing
additional dependencies.
I'm not going to go through and provide a ChangeLog-style commit message for
this commit. I'm too exhausted by this crap.
Copyright notices updated. More casual references to "LoVullo
Associates" replaced with "RT Specialty / Lovullo", which will be "RT
Specialty Buffalo" in the future. Or "RT Specialty", depending on how
this is rolled out. Or "Ryan Specialty Group". Who knows.
"R-T Specialty, LLC." is the legal name, which includes the dash. Not
to be confused with a certain television network.
I have sat on releasing a lot of this code for years because I wanted
the liza repo to be in a pristine state---tests and all---which
required a great deal of refactoring. Well, that never happened, and
time is up.
LoVullo Associates---my employer---has been purchased by another
company. This means that any agreement with LoVullo regarding
releasing free software is going to have to be re-negotiated with this
new company, and I have no idea how those negotiations will go. So,
I have no choice but to simply release everything in its current state,
or risk it being lost forever.
This represents work over the past 6--7 years, 99.9% of it written by
me. This project has been my baby for quite some time, and has been
through a number of battles with deadlines and other unfortunate
circumstances; the scars show. I also didn't really "know" JS when
starting this project. Perhaps you can help improve upon it.
There are some odds-and-ends that could be committed. And references
to insurance and LoVullo need to be removed to generalize this.
I hope that this will not be the last public commit for this project.
I'll fight the good fight and we'll see where that takes us. Maybe
it'll be easy.
Happy hacking.
