ModuleLoader

Another implementation of require for the browser.

Run. For your life.

It's pretty easy to set up a server

pathname = require("path")
ModuleLoader = require("./module_loader")
new ModuleLoader 
    # env: "production"
    # server: require("express").createServer()
    module_root: pathname.resolve("./node_modules")
    packages: ["underscore", "underscore.string", "jquery", "jwerty", "socket.io-client", "share", "alpha_simprini"]

There are options

  • module_root: (REQUIRED) A fully resolved path which is the node_modules directory to load code from.

  • packages: (REQUIRED) A list of npm package names. They will be looked up in ./node_modules

  • ignorepath: (RECCOMENDED) A path to a .stitchignore file, with patterns of files to ignore when packing and requiring.

  • env: production or development (default is development)

  • server: Uses the express server api. If you don't provide one one will be made for you at port 2334.

Ignore files you don't want!

  • ignorepath: ./.moduleignore

    Sort of like .gitiginore, but without any fancy matching. SOME packages will have files that MUST be ignored in the browser. MOST packages will have files that SHOULD be ignored in the browser.

Load the modules

  • <!DOCTYPE html>

  • use it

    _ = require("underscore")

KNOWN ISSUES

  • jquery - You can't do the equivalent of window.$ = require("jquery"); $ is overwritten as undefined before you can get to it.
