About Me

I am a JavaScript application developer and consultant,
working to help clients write client-side applications that treat
JavaScript as a rich and powerful language, not a toy. I'm the
co-host of the rollicking yayQuery podcast, the organizer of the unexpectedly epic TXJS, a contributor to the jQuery Cookbook from O'Reilly, and the author of jQuery Fundamentals. I'm also active in trying to get more women to participate in the tech community, even if it means I have to get up on stage myself. I live in Durham, North Carolina, with my partner, two dogs, and two terrible cats.

Building a standalone JavaScriptMVC controller.js

Posted

I've been doing a lot of work lately with a client who's using just the controller portion of JavaScriptMVC. I plan to write a more in-depth post about this while I'm traveling this week, but in the meantime, I wanted to jot down the steps to create the standalone controller.js file for my future reference. These instructions work for me on OSX 10.6.

  1. Go to the JavaScriptMVC downloads page on Github
  2. Download the latest version (3.0.0a0 as of this writing) of the framework and unzip it
  3. Open a terminal window and cd to the directory created when you unzipped the file
  4. Run steal/js steal/compress/plugin.js jquery/controller
  5. You should now have a new controller.js file in the directory; you're all set!

Thanks Rebecca. This should work with any jmvc or phui plugin. Eventually these will be auto generated and available for download.
