Type an apostrophe ( ' ) to see all the wishes

*You can also click/tap the lamp image above.

Wishes made: {{wishesMade}}

GenieJS was built to simulate the behavior in apps like Alfred.
Essentially, you register actions with keywords and then you can find those actions via a keyword search.
For info on the vernacular of wishes and magic words, see the project on GitHub.
There's also an AngularJS module with a few useful directives called uxGenie on GitHub.
All tests are written using Mocha. Go here to run them.

See the api docs here

Note: If you're on a mobile device, you will not be able to use this demo. Instead you can watch this demo video. Please also visit the GitHub project.

How to use Genie

Both examples below will create a wish which will alert "Consider them done!" to the user.
Go ahead and give it a try! Copy the JavaScript and paste it in your console then make the wish!

JavaScript

genie({
  magicWords: 'Do my dishes',
  action: function doDishes() {
    alert('Consider them done!');
  }
});

AngularJS Directive

<button ng-click="doDishes()" genie-wish>Do my dishes</button>
That's it! It's pretty simple! Obviously, you need to include the dependency on your page and there is a lot more to it if you want more control.
Head over to the GitHub project to see more documentation on the customization you can do.
