What

Build's gaffa pages into json

Why

Often it's a good idea to break up your gaffa application into pages, that you load as required.

How

gaffa page modules need to conform to a certain pattern to with with this builder:

// They must export a function that optionally takes app as its first parameter

module.exports = function(app){
    // the app arument is usefull for passing things like viewItem constructors around in.
    // you could also just require the viewItem constructors you need, if you prefer.

    var views = app.views,
        actions = app.actions,
        behaviours = app.behaviours;

    function createSomePage(){
        var somePage = new views.container();

        return somePage;
    }

    // a page module must return a single gaffa view.
    return createHomePage();
};

Pass the path to the app module, and the page module into pagebuilder and it will return a statham stringified JSON string.

You can then gaffa.navigate to this .json file, and you will get the views in your application.
