The simplest was to use uRequire is its CLI, running $ urequire ...
.
uRequire has a command line converter that needs to be called globally:
`npm install urequire-cli -g`
You will also need the local 'urequire' to your package:
npm install urequire
$ urequire -h
Usage: urequire [options] [command]
Commands:
UMD <path> Converts all modules in <path> using 'UMD' template.
UMDplain <path> Converts all modules in <path> using 'UMDplain' template.
AMD <path> Converts all modules in <path> using 'AMD' template.
nodejs <path> Converts all modules in <path> using 'nodejs' template.
combined <path> Converts all modules in <path> using 'combined' template.
config <configFiles...>
Options:
-h, --help output usage information
-V, --version output the version number
-B, --ver Print urequire-cli & urequire versions.
-o, --dstPath <dstPath> Output converted files onto this directory
-f, --forceOverwriteSources Overwrite *source* files (-o not needed & ignored)
-v, --verbose Print module processing information
-d, --debugLevel <debugLevel> Pring debug information (0-100)
-n, --noExports Ignore all web `rootExports` in module definitions
-r, --webRootMap <webRootMap> Where to map `/` when running in node. On RequireJS its http-server's root. Can be absolute or relative to bundle. Defaults to bundle.
-s, --scanAllow By default, ALL require('') deps appear on []. to prevent RequireJS to scan @ runtime. With --s you can allow `require('')` scan @ runtime, for source modules that have no [] deps (eg nodejs source modules).
-a, --allNodeRequires Pre-require all deps on node, even if they arent mapped to parameters, just like in AMD deps []. Preserves same loading order, but a possible slower starting up. They are cached nevertheless, so you might gain speed later.
-p, --dummyParams Add dummy params for deps that have no corresponding param in the AMD define Array.
-t, --template <template> Template (AMD, UMD, nodejs), to override a `configFile` setting. Should use ONLY with `config`
-O, --optimize Pass through uglify2 while saving/optimizing - currently works only for `combined` template, using r.js/almond.
-C, --continue Dont bail out while processing (module processing/conversion errors)
-w, --watch Watch for file changes in `bundle.path` & reprocess them. Note: new dirs are ignored
-b, --bare Don't enclose AMD/UMD modules in Immediately Invoked Function Expression (safety wraper).
-f, --filez NOT IMPLEMENTED (in CLI - use a config file or grunt-urequire). Process only modules/files in filters - comma seprated list/Array of Strings or Regexp's
-j, --jsonOnly NOT IMPLEMENTED. Output everything on stdout using json only. Usefull if you are building build tools
-e, --verifyExternals NOT IMPLEMENTED. Verify external dependencies exist on file system.
[urequire-cli] : Examples:
$ urequire UMD path/to/amd/moduleBundle -o umd/moduleBundle
or
$ urequire AMD path/to/moduleBundle -f
or
$ urequire config path/to/configFile.json,anotherConfig.js,masterConfig.coffee -d 30
*Notes: Command line values have precedence over configFiles;
Values on config files on the left have precedence over those on the right (deeply traversing).*
Module files in your bundle can conform to the *standard AMD* format:
// standard AMD module format - unnamed or named (not recommended by AMD)
define(['dep1', 'dep2'], function(dep1, dep2) {...});
Alternativelly modules can use the *standard nodejs/CommonJs* format:
var dep1 = require('dep1');
var dep2 = require('dep2');
...
module.exports = {my: 'module'}
Finally, a 'relaxed' format can be used (combination of AMD+commonJs), along with asynch requires, requirejs plugins, rootExports + noConflict boilerplate, exports.bundle and much more - see the docs.
// uRequire 'relaxed' modules format
- define(['dep1', 'dep2'], function(dep1, dep2) {
...
// nodejs-style requires, with no side effects
dep3 = require('dep3');
....
// asynchronous AMD-style requires work in nodejs
require(['someDep', 'another/dep'], function(someDep, anotherDep){...});
// RequireJS plugins work on web + nodejs
myJson = require('json!ican/load/requirejs/plugins/myJson.json');
....
return {my: 'module'};
});
Notes:
--forceOverwriteSources (-f) is useful if your sources are not `real sources` eg. you use coffeescript :-).
WARNING: -f ignores --dstPath
- Your source can be coffeescript (more will follow) - .coffee files are internally translated to js.
- configFiles can be written as a .js module, .coffee module, json and much more - see 'butter-require'
