SModular - Simple Modular

Simple module for JavaScript. Supports AMD modules and CommonJS modules with wrapper (function define).

Exapmles

If module starts with name 'app.' then it will be inited imedantly and exported to global variable in other case module will not be global but still can by required by other module.

Exapmle of module:

 define('window', function (require, exports, module) {
	 module.exports = window;
 });

will export variable window for other modules.

 define('app.nicemodule', function (require, exports, module) {
	module.exports = function niceFunc(r) {
		return 2 + r;
	};
 });

module exports niceFunc to variable with name app.nicemodule

Other way define module is return function or object what you want to export as AMD approach.

define('app.nicemodule', function (require, exports, module) {
	return function niceFunc(r) {
   	return 2 + r;
   };
});

Result will be the same as one above. After definition you can require module in other.

define('app.secondmodule', function (require, exports, module) {
	var nicemodule = require('app.nicemodule');
   return function niceFunc(r) {
   	return 2 + nicemodule(3);
   };
});

There is other way to define module. Module can be anomymous. In that case module id/name will be file name without extention but pay attention it will not work when you concat all files to one.

// filename: app.secondmodule.js
// module will have name app.secondmodule
define(function (require, exports, module) {
	var nicemodule = require('app.nicemodule');
   return function niceFunc(r) {
   	return 2 + nicemodule(3);
   };
});

If you concate all files to one, plese use some additional tool like gulp-order to difine correct order. SModular will not load moule automaticly you shoud do it manualy and of course in right order.
