Scalable JavaScript Application Example

=======================================



This application architecture is base on this:



 1. Andrew Dupont (Gowalla, Prototype.js, S2) **Maintainable JavaScript** http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/MIX/MIX11/EXT23

 2. Nicholas Zakas (Yahoo!, YUI, YUI Test) **Writing Maintainable JavaScript** http://www.yuiblog.com/blog/2007/05/25/video-zakas/ Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/nzakas/maintainable-javascript-2011 http://www.slideshare.net/nzakas/maintainable-javascript-1071179

 3. **Scalable JavaScript Application Architecture** http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/theater/video.php?v=zakas-architecture



The architecture of this application is described at Yandex.Subbotnik in Yekaterinburg

Depends

-------



 - LMD v1.3.0+ (https://github.com/azproduction/lmd) `npm install lmd -g` - required for build

 - jQuery or Zepto.js - required for core modules (see index.html)



Build and run the example

-------------------------



1. `cd build && make`

2. open `index.html`



**Build makes only js files**



Running tests

-------------



1. `cd test && make`

2. open `test/index.html`



Changelog

---------



**v2.0**



 - **Modules as all application architecture are greatly simplified**

 - This app is now depend on LMD so all modules are synchronous

 - Added build system based on LMD (https://github.com/azproduction/lmd)

 - Core is finally splitted on 4 logical parts: Core, EventManager, Sandbox and Template engine

 - ModuleManager, loader and $script.js are wiped

 - Part of ModuleManager logic is moved to Core

 - All modules are loaded on startup (using lmd) so we no longer need a heavy loaders and $script.js

 - All application modules (not lib modules) are totally sandboxed (cant require at all)

 - Simple acl wildcards support `listen:*` and `*` but not `listen:ololo:*`



**v2.1** (not compatable with v2.0)



  - SJSA no longer depend on jQuery nor Zepto

  - Sandbox#bind and Sandbox#trigger now accepts multiply event names

  - Sandbox#getBox now returns HTMLElement instead of jQuery/Zepto instance

  - Core.getBox uses getElementById instead of jQuery/Zepto selector

  - Sandbox#getTemplate now accept elementId instead of selector (all templates should be marked with id)

  - app descriptor can content list of safe modules (can require other modules) see `app/modules/Logger.js` for example

  - EventManager totally refactored see `test/units/EventManagerTest.js` for details
