stitch_rails¶ ↑
Inspired by gist.github.com/1153919
Brings require
to Rails Sprockets.
All .coffee
file will be wrapped as require.define
.
require("foo/bar")
will load file app/assets/javascripts/foo/bar.js.coffee
and execute it.
Example¶ ↑
Gemfile:
gem 'stitch_rails', '0.0.3'
config/application.rb:
module YourApp class Application < Rails::Application # .... omit .... # file names listed here are not wraped in `require.define`, so they # are executed immediatly. Handy for an app start point. Otherwise you # have add an .js file to require your start file. Suffix should not be added here. # Glob pattern is also supported. config.stitch.excludes = %w(application *_spec jasminerice) end end
app/assets/javascripts/application.js.coffee:
# These are sprockets require that used to includes js files. Since # .coffee file are wrapped as module, the js code is only executed when # javascript function `require` is invoked. # #= require jquery # # Must load stitch_rails before any other coffee file, it defines the global method `require` # #= require stitch_rails #= require_tree ./ #= require_this # # Since this file is in stitch excludes, code here are executed when it is loaded: $ -> Greet = require('models/greet') greet = new Greet() greet.sayHi()
app/assets/javascripts/models/greet.js.coffee
class Greet sayHi: -> alert 'Hello, World' module.exports = Greet

Make it work for Sprockets without Rails
