Task Implementation

### Simple Task

Monkeybars.Task is the simplest form of a task possible. You can override any of the methods provided (granted you must then call the prototype version of the method), but in its simplest form a task only requires the performTask method to be present. For a list of all possible methods and properties available have a look at the documentation.

    var task = new MonkeyBars.Task({
        name:"SimpleTask",
        loggingEnabled:true,
        onChange:function(state,error){
            if(state == MonkeyBars.TaskStates.Completed) {
                alert("The 'SimpleTask' is complete");
            }
        },
        performTask:function(){
            this.complete();
        }
    });

    task.start();

Task Groups

Task groups are a great way to contain and structure both serial and async units of code. There are numerous syntax variations that you can use in order to create and add subtasks to a task group. Have a look at the group, parallel and sequence specs within the tests directory for all of the possible variations.

    var group = new MonkeyBars.SequenceTask({
        name:"SimpleTask",
        loggingEnabled:true,
        tasks:[{
            name:"subtask1",
            performTask:function(){
                // run task functionality
                this.complete();
            }
        },
        {
            name:"subtask2",
            performTask:function(){
                // run task functionality
                this.complete();
            }
        }]
    });

    group.start();
