- refactor logic of processing artifacts into their own classes
- introduce Container as the main class for bootstrapping and build a
registry of handlers during boot to organize them by a hierarchy
denoted by path
- adopt middleware like registration and invocation
- container.use(path, handler)
- container.run(context, done)
- allow more phases during boot
- boot is now asynchronous
Hide `compile` and `execute` and provide a better API for browserified
applications:
- `boot.compileToBrowserify(options, bundler)` calls `compile` under
the hood and adds all instructions and scripts to the bundler.
- `bootBrowserApp(app)` is exported by loopback-boot when the module
is loaded in a browser, the function loads the instructions as
bundled by `compileToBrowserify`.
This new API hides all implementation details from the user and makes
it easy to add loopback-boot to any build script.
