Yaajs

Yet Another AMD compliant javascript library. This is an alternative to RequireJS.

The main goals of Yaajs are to be more hackable with improved support for testing, development and debugging. In particular Yaajs manages a module dependancy graph and provides a Module#unload method to remove a module and all modules dependant on it. It also tries to help find where loading failed due to syntax/loading errors and dependency cycles.

Only modern browsers and NodeJS >= version 12 are supported.

Install

npm i yaajs

API

See AMD API for the common API.

See the tests in the tests directory for features specific to yaajs.

Config options are:

1. baseUrl
2. paths
3. packages
4. config
5. shim - Shim support is non-compliant at the moment. It supports init and deps but only ensures deps are loaded before init is run; not before module is loaded.
6. enforceDefine
7. enforceAcyclic - An error is thrown if a dependency cycle is found.
8. recordExports - Module exports which are objects are mapped to their module the method Context#exportsModule(export) returns an array of modules with that export.
