Ember-cli-amd

The Ember loader is conflicting with the AMD loader. The Ember loader is not async and doesn't comply with the RequireJS or AMD specs.

This addon will:

• Update the code generated by Ember to avoid conflicts with the AMD loader
• Update the index.html:
  • load any pure AMD modules found in the code first using the AMD loader.
  • load the Ember code as AMD modules (app and vendor)
  • reference the AMD modules inside the Ember loader

View it live using the ArcGIS API for JavaScript.

Breaking changes

The version 2.x has removed some old and unecessary features.

Features

• Load AMD modules in parallel with ember-cli/loader.js.
• Works with AMD CDN libraries, such as Dojo or the ArcGIS API for JavaScript.

Usage

ember install ember-cli-amd

Update the ember-cli-build file. See configuration below as an example:

var app = new EmberApp({
  amd : {
    // Specify the loader path. Can be a CDN path or a relative path in the dist folder
    // - CDN: loader: 'https://js.arcgis.com/3.15/'
    // - Local: loader: 'assets/jsapi/dojo.js'
    loader: 'https://js.arcgis.com/3.15/',
    // User defined AMD packages used in the application
    // import foo from 'esri/foo';
    packages: ['esri','dojo','dojox','dijit','put-selector','xstyle','dgrid'],
    // The AMD configuration file path relative to the project root.
    // The file will be copied to the output directory (./dist) and the configuration file
    // will be loaded before the loader is loaded. The configuration file must define the global variable used by the specific loader.
    // For dojo, the supported global variable name are `dojoConfig`, `djConfig` or `require`.
    // For requirejs, the global variable is called `require`.
    // Please refer to the documentation for the correct use of the configuration object.
    configPath: 'config/dojo-config.js',
    // Optional: a list of relative paths from the build directory that should not be parsed by ember-cli-amd.
    // This is useful for:
    // - when using an AMD api locally and copied under public folder. The files will be copied under the build folder. These files are pure AMD
    //   modules and should not be converted.
    // - when copying from public to build directory files that are pure JS
    excludePaths: ['assets/jspai', 'assets/myLibThatDontUseEmberDefineOrRequire']
  }
});

Example using the CDN resources

// ember-cli-build.js
module.exports = function(defaults) {

  var app = new EmberApp(defaults, {
    amd :{
      loader: 'https://js.arcgis.com/3.15/',
      configPath: 'config/dojo-config.js',
      packages: ['esri','dojo','dojox','dijit','put-selector','xstyle','dbind','dgrid'],
      excludePaths: ['assets/workers']
    }
  });

  return app.toTree();
};

// config/dojo-config.js if using dojo
var dojoConfig = {
  async: true
};

Using a CDN for your application's assets

When using ember-cli-deploy it is common to deploy the assets of an ember application to a different location (cdn) from the index.html. The ember-cli-deploy documentation discusess how to use fingerprinting to prepend fully-qualified urls to the asset locations. As of v0.4.1 of ember-cli-amd these same options are applied to the AMD related scripts that are injected into the page, thus allowing this to work smoothly with ember-cli-deploy.

Running

• ember server
• Visit your app at http://localhost:4200.

Running tests

• ember test
• ember test --server

Running the dummy application

• ember serve
• Visit the dummy application at http://localhost:4200.
