Tapestry 5.4 Questions

["Miguel O. Carvajal" <ta...@carvajalonline.com>]

Hey all,

I was looking through the branch for 5.4 and even though I know this is 
nowhere near done, I have a few questions.

Will 5.4 be completely tied to RequireJS?

ModuleManager certainly seems to be, meaning if I want to use something 
else like Ext.Loader I'd have to override the ModuleManager 
implementation. Is this the current plan?

I was also curious as to how the modules are loaded by ModuleManager, 
we are currently scanning packages for the "modulejs" directory.

Why was this approach chosen over using something like 
requirejs.config's "paths" option where RequireJS can be told beforehand 
what directory to get modules from? That way a Tapestry library could 
just simply contribute to ModuleManager what Javascript modules it 
handles so that the scanning does not have to take place. This is just 
an idea I am throwing out there, I hope it makes sense.

That being said, I really like where 5.4 is headed.


Cheers,

Miguel
