Add support for middlewares to hook into event bus handler lifecycle
implement swappable EventHistory storage backend
Updated the description to clarify the library's functionality and similarities to JS event systems.
Revise README description for bubus library
…ead of process-until-event
…nGroup for multiple exceptions
Updated project description to reflect multi-language support.
Shortened references to Typescript and applications.
Removed 'library' from the project description.
Added badges for Python and TypeScript implementations, as well as NPM version.
Removed duplicate image and adjusted formatting.
Standalone higher-order function / TC39 decorator that adds configurable retry logic and semaphore-based concurrency limiting to any async function. Works independently of the event bus (on plain functions, class methods, or event handlers). Features: - max_attempts, retry_after, retry_backoff_factor, retry_on_errors, timeout - Global semaphore registry (semaphore_limit, semaphore_name, semaphore_lax) - AsyncLocalStorage-based re-entrancy tracking to prevent deadlocks when nested/recursive calls share the same semaphore - 30 tests covering retry logic, backoff, error filtering, timeouts, semaphore concurrency, re-entrancy, and event bus integration https://claude.ai/code/session_01TyuqFQFwDXa4h5QzQDCUsv
Switch from a separate node:async_hooks import to the existing createAsyncLocalStorage() factory from async_context.ts. This ensures browser compatibility by gracefully degrading to a no-op when AsyncLocalStorage is unavailable. https://claude.ai/code/session_01TyuqFQFwDXa4h5QzQDCUsv

retry_on_errors now accepts a mix of: - Error class constructors (instanceof check) - String error names (matched against error.name) - RegExp patterns (tested against String(error)) https://claude.ai/code/session_01TyuqFQFwDXa4h5QzQDCUsv
- 'global': all calls share one semaphore (default, existing behavior) - 'class': keyed by constructor.name — all instances of a class share one - 'instance': keyed by WeakMap identity — each object gets its own Falls back to 'global' when `this` is not an object (standalone calls). Multiprocess scope is not supported (single-process JS runtime). https://claude.ai/code/session_01TyuqFQFwDXa4h5QzQDCUsv

Tests verify: @Retry() works with native TC39 Stage 3 decorator syntax on class methods, preserves `this` context, composes with semaphore_scope (class/instance), works with bus.on() via .bind(), and class/instance scopes correctly fall back to global for standalone functions. https://claude.ai/code/session_01TyuqFQFwDXa4h5QzQDCUsv
Tests added (12 new, 51 total retry tests): - TC39 @Retry() decorator on class methods with all 3 scopes - @Retry + bus.on via .bind(this) for class/instance/global scopes - HOF retry()(fn).bind(instance) pattern (bind after wrap) - HOF retry()(fn.bind(instance)) → verifies scope falls back to global - Standalone functions with class/instance scope → fall back to global README updated: - TC39 decorator syntax examples with bus.on + .bind(this) - HOF .bind() ordering requirement documented - Note on scope fallback for standalone/unbound functions Also fixed flaky bus tests caused by handler ID collision (bus uses ms-precision timestamps in handler ID hash — added 2ms delay between same-millisecond handler registrations). https://claude.ai/code/session_01TyuqFQFwDXa4h5QzQDCUsv
…ents Verifies the pattern where retry() wraps the full bus.emit→event.done() cycle so each retry dispatches a fresh event, while other events race in parallel via Promise.all. https://claude.ai/code/session_01TyuqFQFwDXa4h5QzQDCUsv
… wrapping Rewrite README retry section to establish @Retry() on class methods as the primary recommended pattern. Explain why retry/timeout is a handler-level concern (handlers fail, events don't), why emit-level retry hurts replayability/determinism, and how retry semaphores are orthogonal to bus concurrency options. Mark the emit→done wrapping pattern as technically supported but not recommended, with clear rationale. Reorganize test section headers to reflect the recommended pattern hierarchy. https://claude.ai/code/session_01TyuqFQFwDXa4h5QzQDCUsv

Summary by cubic
Adds a full TypeScript/ESM port of bubus (with a TC39-decorator-compatible retry) and upgrades the Python package with middleware, a pluggable history backend, ContextVar propagation, and a unified find/query API. Expands docs, adds npm publish CI, introduces semaphore_scope for retry, and adds a new test that wraps the full emit→done cycle in parallel with other events.
