REQUIRE•JS IN 15 MINUTES
The Old Way <script src="jquery.js"></script> <script src="jquery.plugin.js"></script> <script src="main.js"></script>
The Old Way •Dependencies defined out-of-band •Lots of script tags
(& requests) •…or a very very big main.js •…or a build step in development •All files load synchronously
With RequireJS ? Dependencies defined out-of-band ? Lots of script
tags (& requests) ? …or a very very big main.js ? …or a build step in development ? All files load synchronously
With RequireJS <script src="require.js" data-main="main"></script>
Define Dependencies in Scripts require(['jquery', 'jquery.plugin'], function ($) { //
Main code goes here });
Use require() to Declare Dependencies For Scripts require(['jquery', 'jquery.plugin'], function
($) { // Main code goes here });
Module IDs (Not Paths) in Array Correspond to Arguments require(['jquery',
'jquery.plugin'], function ($) { // Main code goes here });
Write Your Own Modules! define(['jquery', 'jquery.plugin'], function ($) { function
makeButton (el) { $(el).click(function () { alert('I was clicked!'); }); } return makeButton; });
Use define() to Declare Dependencies For Modules define(['jquery', 'jquery.plugin'], function
($) { function makeButton (el) { $(el).click(function () { alert('I was clicked!'); }); } return makeButton; });
Dependencies Work the Same as With require() define(['jquery', 'jquery.plugin'], function
($) { function makeButton (el) { $(el).click(function () { alert('I was clicked!'); }); } return makeButton; });
Return the Module From the Function define(['jquery', 'jquery.plugin'], function ($)
{ function makeButton (el) { $(el).click(function () { alert('I was clicked!'); }); } return makeButton; });
Alternative Syntax Improves Long Dependency Lists define(function (require) { var
$ = require('jquery'); require('jquery.plugin'); function makeButton (el) { $(el).click(function () { alert('I was clicked!'); });
Use Your Module in Other Modules or Scripts define(function (require)
{ var makeButton = require('makebutton'); makeButton('#element'); . . . . .
Module IDs Are Based on File Names… define(function (require) {
var makeButton = require('makebutton'); makeButton('#element'); . . . . .
…But Don’t Use Paths! That’s What Config is For require.config({
paths: { makebutton: 'path/to/makebutton' } });
…And For “Shimming” Scripts That Don’t Use AMD require.config({ shim:
{ underscore: { deps: ['jquery'], exports: '_' } }, paths: {
With RequireJS •Dependencies defined out-of-band •Lots of script tags (&
requests) •…or a very very big main.js •…or a build step in development •All files load synchronously
Use r.js Optimizer For Production •Module-aware concatenation •Can build one
file or many $ node r.js -o name=main out=main-built.js
With RequireJS •Dependencies defined out-of-band •Lots of script tags (&
requests) •…or a very very big main.js •…or a build step in development •All files load synchronously
