Router - AMD Plugin
Router is an AMD plugin which helps to asynchronously load modules in a multi page website. The modules required for the page are specified in a body tag attribute with optional key/value pair arguments. The example in this repo uses Curl.js but Router will work with RequireJS or any AMD loader that follows the CommonJS Loader Plugin specification.
Specify the required modules with optional arguments in body[data-route]
<body data-route="foo bar?name:chambaz,something:else">
Call the plugin without arguments to fetch the modules required for the current page
curl(['router!']).then(function(routes) {
// routes is an array of module references
// public properties and methods can be accessed
var i = 0;
for(; i < routes.length; i++) {
if(routes[i].hello) {
routes[i].hello();
}
}
});
Call the plugin from within a module, passing the module name, to access the arguments specified in the body tag attribute
// bar module
define(['router!bar'], function(params) {
console.log("Bar module loaded...");
var name = params.name ? params.name : false;
// return public methods
return {
hello: function() {
console.log("Bar says hello "+name);
}
};
});
