SpringbokJS installs modules (traditional object or AMD-style) based on HTML attributes.

To install modules:

springbok.initModules();

Modules are bound to the specified node in the DOM:

<div data-module="myNamespace.myWidget">
	<p>Initial widget content</p>
</div>

This <div> is send to the constructor of the module (so it can be set as view node).

Modules can also be installed one at a time:

springbok.initModule(viewNode, moduleName);

To uninstall modules:

springbok.destructModules();

This will call the destruct() method on each of the modules it finds (which makes the module itself responsible for cleaning up).

SpringbokJS is compatible with AMD setups:

<div data-module="modules/myWidget"></div>

Bring your own AMD loader: the require() function will be used to load the module.

• Include springbok.js
• Put data-module with module references in HTML
• Make sure modules are objects that can be instantiated using new

<script>
	window.springbok = {
		autoload: true,
		context: document.getElementById('container'),
		anchor: 'data-widget'
	}
</script>

autoload: have Springbok initialize the modules after it is initialized (default: false)

context: the DOM node within modules are looked after (default: document.body)

anchor: the attribute referencing module (default: data-module)
