var module = (function(){
// private variables, methods
var title = “”;
function f1() {}
return {

}
}()) ;
MODULE PATTERN

define(function () {
var title = “”;
function f1() {}
return {
getTitle: function() {
return title;
}
}
});
RJS MODULE PATTERN

define(id?, dependencies?, factory)

index.html
js /
-- main.js
-- helpers.js
-- app /
-- views /
-- view1.js
-- vendor /
-- require.js
view1.js
------------
define([‘helpers’],
function(helpers){
return {
init: function(){}
}
});
define(function(){
// code here
});
helpers.js
------------

define([‘module1’, module2’],
function (dep1, dep2) {
// do something
}
)
Multiple Dependencies

require(dependencies?, factory)

index.html
------------
<script src=”js/vendor/require.js”
data-main=”js/main.js”
main.js
------------
require([‘view1’],function(view1){
view1.init();
});
index.html
js /
-- main.js
-- helpers.js
-- app /
-- views /
-- view1.js
-- vendor /
-- require.js

main.js
------------
require.config({
baseUrl: ‘./js’,
paths: {
‘view1’: ‘app/views/view1’
}
});
require([‘view1’],function(view1){
view1.init();
});
index.html
js /
-- main.js
-- helpers.js
-- app /
-- views /
-- view1.js
-- vendor /
-- require.js

NO blocking!

var node = document.createElement('script');
node.async = true;
node.setAttribute('data-requirecontext',
context.contextName);
node.setAttribute('data-requiremodule', moduleName);
node.src = url;
var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
head.appendChild(node);
Script Loader

require() asynchronous
de!ne() - de!ne.amd
AMD
well suited for browser

exports.render = function() {};
var module = require(‘view1’);
NO de!ne()
require() synchronous
Server-side approach

Simpliﬁed CommonJS Wrapper
define(function(require, exports, module){
// Module required before the callback runs
var helpers = require(‘helpers’);
exports.render = function() {
helpers.doSomething();
}
});

define([“dep1”], function(require){
var helpers = require(‘helpers’);
//code here
});

if ( typeof define === "function" &&
define.amd ) {
define( "jquery", [], function () {
return jQuery;
});
}

index.html
js /
-- main.js
-- helpers.js
-- app /
-- views /
-- view1.js
-- vendor /
-- require.js
-- backbone.js
-- underscore.js
-- jquery.js
main.js
------------
require.config({
baseUrl: ‘js/vendor’,
shim: {
‘underscore’:{
exports: ‘_’
},
‘backbone’: {
deps: [‘jquery’, ‘underscore’],
exports: ‘Backbone’
}
}
});
require([‘backbone’],function(Backbone){
Backbone.history.start();
});

LOADER PLUGINS
• i18n!, async!, domReady!
• text!, css!, json!, cs!, hbs!
[plugin Module ID]![resource ID]

});
require([‘text!partials/file.txt’],
function(txt) {
// txt goes here
});
