modlazy v1.0.0

modlazy

Lightweight (3KB!) lazy loader for JS, CSS & LESS assets.

On demand assets loader built with ease, nested dependencies support and cache care.

modlazy is a fork of Lazy Loader ( https://github.com/orenyakobi/lazy ) that fixes a bug in URL handling.

Installation

• Install with npm: npm install modlazy

• Install with bower: bower install modlazy

• Or clone it and add dist/modlazy.js to your DOM: git clone https://github.com/robertdmunn/modlazy.git

Usage

Asynchronic assets load

modlazy.load(['myScript.js','myStyle.css','myLessStyle.less']);`

Dependencies

Use the '<' operator to define dependencies while x < y means: x depends on y, so modlazy will make sure y is being loaded before x. You can also use '<' to define nested dependencies:

modlazy.load(['loadMeLast.js < loadMeSecond.js < loadMeFirst.less'], ['LoadMeWhenEver.js', 'LoadMeWhenEverAsWell.js']);

loadMeLast.js depends on loadMeSecond.js, which depends on loadMeFirst.less

modlazy loading with callback

You can send a function variable or an anonymous function as the second variable to be call when all the files are loaded

modlazy.load(['loadMeLast.js < loadMeFirst.less ', 'LoadMeWhenEver.js'], function(){
    console.log('All files have been loaded');
});

Further reading

• Cache:

modlazy.load(['myScript.js','myOtherScript.js','myScript.js']);

myScript.js will be loaded only once

• Note: For using modlazy with LESS files you have to (modlazy) load less.js first
