Welcome to v8-juice!

v8-juice (v8 (J)avaScript (U)serland (I)ntegratable (C)omponents (E)mporium) is a C++ library for extending the v8 JavaScript engine. It includes components such as a flexible type-conversion API, utilities for creating new JS-side classes from C++, binding near-arbitrary native functions to arbitrary JS objects, and a plugins API (with several plugins binding popular 3rd-party libraries). And its got more docs than the whole of v8 itself (yes, v8 developers, that is a challenge to document your code!). If the API docs aren't enough, this project's wiki has over 500kb of lovingly hand-crafted, cross-referenced text to help you along.

You can read all about v8-juice on the HomePage. (Or see juice's younger sister project, V8Convert, which is where most development is happening as of mid-2011.)

Project Stats

Provided by Ohloh.net:

Those stats would appear, however, to be largely skewed. As of now (June 2011), the tree (including plugins) contains code which took something like 2.5-3 years of part-time work, and not the 20+ years Ohloh calculates. (Maybe it's because i use the terribly efficient XEmacs as my editor.)
