Overview of this book

Programming in the modular manner is always encouraged for bigger systems—it is easier to achieve scalability with modular programming. Even JavaScript developers are now interested in building programs in a modular pattern. Modules help people who aren’t yet familiar with code to find what they are looking for and also makes it easier for programmers to keep things that are related close together. Designing and implementing applications in a modular manner is highly encouraged and desirable in both simple and enterprise level applications. This book covers some real-life examples of modules and how we can translate that into our world of programming and application design. After getting an overview of JavaScript object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts and their practical usage, you should be able to write your own object definitions using the module pattern. You will then learn to design and augment modules and will explore the concepts of cloning, inheritance, sub-modules, and code extensibility. You will also learn about SandBoxing, application design, and architecture based on modular design concepts. Become familiar with AMD and CommonJS utilities. By the end of the book, you will be able to build spectacular modular applications in JavaScript.

GlobalData module


As the name implies, this module is designed to store application level data and act as the model for our application. It also provides public methods so that other modules can get and set data in the module. This module is defined as ImagesInc_GlobalData global variable in the application..

The following shows a snippet of the kind of data that the module stores:

    var favCookieName = "Images_Inc", 
        pageDefintionsFile = "PageDefinitions.js", 
        pageDefinitionsFilePath = "js/Modules/PageDefinitions/",
...

This module is augmented with a sub-module ImagesInc_PageSections, which stores HTML markup strings related to header and footer components.

It is worth looking at how this sub-module is added to GlobalData module.

var ImagesInc_GlobalData = ImagesInc_GlobalData || null;

var ImagesInc_PageSections = (function(mainModule, subModule){
 // assigning the subModule if it is passed in and also augmenting sub-module
    var pageSections = mainModule.pageSections ...
