Modulus

Drop dead simple module definition library.

Modulus simplifies your module definitions by autowiring module function parameters based on the paramater name. e.g. having a parameter called moduleA in your module function will result in modulus finding moduleA and passing it to your module function.

##Defining Modules To define a module, simply create a named function:

//defining a module is as simple as creating a function.
function moduleA(){
    return {
        prop1: 123
    };
}

//simply by referencing moduleA, you will get its return value passed in as the parameter value.
function moduleB(moduleA){
    return {
        prop1: moduleA.prop1 + 1
    };
}

##Start Processing

Option 1 - module metadata

Each module can have metadata to control behavior of modulus. By specifying autoInit = true, modulus knows to run the function once it's dependencies have been located.

//configure the module to execute without being required by another module first.
moduleB.module = {
    autoInit: true
};

//start processing
modulus.init();

Option 2

modulus.init();

modulus.require(function (moduleB){
    console.log(moduleB.prop1); //prints 124
});
