- Responsibilities
- Provide a general purpose JavaScript-implementation of CycloneDX for Node.js and WebBrowsers.
- Provide typing for said implementation, so developers and dev-tools can rely on it.
- Provide data models to work with CycloneDX.
- Provide a JSON- and an XML-normalizer, that...
- supports all shipped data models.
- respects any injected CycloneDX Specification and generates valid output according to it.
- can be configured to generate reproducible/deterministic output.
- can prepare data structures for JSON- and XML-serialization.
- Serialization:
- Provide a universal JSON-serializer for all target environments.
- Provide an XML-serializer for all target environments.
- Support the downstream implementation of custom XML-serializers tailored to specific environments
by providing an abstract base class that takes care of normalization and BomRef-discrimination.
This is done, because there is no universal XML support in JavaScript.
