Even better if you "minify" these!
The bricks for structuring non-trivial applications, but also the main mechanism to enforce information hiding by keeping private all the functions and variables that are not explicitly marked to be exported
* yeah, I quite like quoting my stuff... 😅
(Immediately Invoked Function Expression)
const sum = (a, b) => a + b
function sum(a, b) {
return a + b
}
const four = sum(2, 2)
(a, b) => {
const secretString = "Hello"
return a + b
}
console.log(secretString) // undefined
(arg1, arg2) => {
// do stuff here
const iAmNotVisibleOutside = true
}
(
A function with its own scope
This wrapper executes the function immediately and passes arguments from the outer scope
)(someArg1, someArg2)
const myModule = (() => {
const privateFoo = () => { /* ... */ }
const privateBar = [ /* ... */ ]
const exported = {
publicFoo: () => { /* ... */ },
publicBar: [ /* ... */ ]
};
return exported
})()
A module
myModule.publicFoo()
myModule.publicBar[0]
myModule.privateFoo // undefined
myModule.privateBar // undefined
privateFoo // undefined
privateBar // undefined
IIFE
Creates an isolated scope
and executes it
information hiding
non-exposed functionality
defines exported functionalities
propagates the exports
to the outer scope (assigning it to myModule)
Can access exported functionalities
No visibility for the
non-exported ones
Must have
Nice to have
globals
CommonJS (Node.js)
AMD (Require.js / Dojo)
UMD
ES2015 Modules (ESM)
Many others (SystemJS, ...)
var $, jQuery
$ = jQuery = (() => {
return { /* ... */ }
})()
// ... use $ or jQuery in the global scope
$.find('.button').remove()
👎 Might generate naming collisions
(e.g. $ overrides browser global variable)
👎 Modules needs to be "fully loaded" in the right order
👎 Cannot import parts of modules
// loDash.js
const loDash = {
/* ... */
}
module.exports = loDash
module
// app.js
// import full module
const _ = require('./loDash')
_.concat([1], [2], [3])
// or import single functionality
const { concat } = require('./loDash')
concat([1], [2], [3])
app using module
👍 No naming collisions
(imported modules can be renamed)
👍 Huge repository of modules through NPM
👎 Synchronous import only
👎 Works natively on the server side only (Node.js)
// jquery-1.9.0.js
define(
'jquery',
['sizzle', 'jqueryUI'],
function (sizzle, jqueryUI) {
// Returns the exported value
return function () {
// ...
}
}
)
module
module name
dependencies
factory function used to construct the module,
receives the dependencies as arguments
exported value
// app.js
// define paths
requirejs.config({
baseUrl: 'js/lib',
paths: {
jquery: 'jquery-1.9.0'
}
})
define(['jquery'], function ($) {
// this is executed only when jquery
// and its deps are loaded
});
app
Require.js config
jquery will be loaded from
://<currentDomain>/js/lib/jquery-1.9.0.js
app main function
Has jquery as dependency
👍 Asynchronous modules
👍 Works on Browsers and Server side
👎 Very verbose and convoluted syntax (my opinion™)
(function (root, factory) {
if (typeof exports === 'object') {
// CommonJS
module.exports = factory(require('dep'))
} else if (typeof define === 'function' && define.amd) {
// AMD
define(['dep'], function (dep) {
return (root.returnExportsGlobal = factory(dep))
})
} else {
// Global Variables
root.myModule = factory(root.dep)
}
}(this, function (dep) {
// Your actual module
return {}
}))
IIFE with arguments:
- Current scope (this) and the module factory function.
- "dep" is a sample dependency of the module.
👍 Allows you to define modules that
can be used by almost any module loader
👎 Complex, the wrapper code
is almost impossible to write manually
Cool & broad subject, it would deserve it's own talk

"works" in some modern browsers
🙄 Syntactically very similar to CommonJS...
BUT
👍 import & export are static
(allow static analysis of dependencies)
👍 It is a (still work in progress) standard format
👍 Works (almost) seamlessly in browsers & servers
Current most used practice:
Use CommonJS or ES2015 & create "compiled bundles"

The browser doesn't know how to process
It doesn't support CommonJS!
A tool that takes modules with dependencies and emits static assets representing those modules
Those static assets can be processed by browsers!
A graph built by connecting every module with its direct dependencies.

IIFE passing the modules map as argument
Custom require function:
it will load the modules by evaluating the code from the modules map
A reference to a module with an empty module.exports.
This will be filled at evaluation time
Invoking the factory function for the given module name.
(Service locator pattern)
The current reference module is passed, the factory function will modify this object by adding the proper exported values.
The custom require function is passed so, modules can recursively require other modules
The resulting module.exports is returned
The entrypoint module is required, triggering the actual execution of the business logic
If you do, let me know... I'll arrange a prize for you!
TIP: you can use acorn or babel-parser to parse JavaScript files (look for require and module.exports) and resolve to map relative module paths to actual files in the filesystem.

npm install webpack webpack-cli
webpack app.js
yep, recent versions of Webpack work without config! 😎
webpack --mode=development app.js
Do not compress the code and add annotations!
const { resolve, join } = require('path')
const CompressionPlugin = require('compression-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
entry: './app.js',
output: {
path: resolve(join(__dirname, 'build')),
filename: 'app.js'
},
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.js$/,
exclude: /(node_modules|bower_components)/,
use: {
loader: 'babel-loader',
options: {
presets: [
['@babel/preset-env']
]
}
}
}
]
},
plugins: [
new CompressionPlugin()
]
}
Webpack.config.js
Entrypoint
Build the dependency graph starting from ./app.js
Output
Save the resulting bundled file in ./build/app.js
Loaders
All the files matching "*.js" are processed with babel and converted to ES5 Javascript
Plugins
Uses a plugin that generates a gzipped copy of every emitted file.
import React, { Component } from 'react'
import logo from './logo.svg'
import './App.css'
class App extends Component {
render() {
return (
<div className="App">
<header className="App-header">
<img src={logo} className="App-logo" alt="logo" />
<h1 className="App-title">Welcome to React</h1>
</header>
</div>
);
}
}
export default App
This is how Webpack allows you to use Babel, TypeScript, Clojure, Elm, Imba but also to load
{
test: /\.css$/,
use: [
require.resolve('style-loader'),
{
loader: require.resolve('css-loader'),
options: {
importLoaders: 1,
},
},
{

options: {
ident: 'postcss',
plugins: () => [
require('postcss-flexbugs-fixes'),
autoprefixer({
browsers: [
'>1%',
'last 4 versions',
'Firefox ESR',
'not ie < 9',
],
flexbox: 'no-2009',
}),
],
},
}
]
}
// Defines how to load .css files (uses a pipeline of loaders)
// parses the file with post-css
// process @import and url()
