An AMD loader plugin for Sweet.js

require-sweet

require-sweet is a Require.js plugin that allows you to require sweet.js dependencies into your project. This means you can leverage macros in your JavaScript on the fly, and later during your build!

Download

• sweeten.js
• sweeten.min.js

Usage

You leverage require-sweeten like any other require.js plugin! Simply place "sweeten!" before your dependency path, make sure to leave off the file extension.

define(['sweeten!a/javascript/dep-with-macros'], function(dep) {
  // dep is compiled to JS at this point.
});

You can also see the "example" folder, where require-sweet is being used to run a few macros.

Build

npm install && grunt build

Implementation Details

This project leverages git submodules to embed the sweet.js project. This allows us to automate the build for a new version of the plugin as the sweet.js project moves forward. We leverage grunt to build the plugin.
