Code Splitting · Issue #7 · medikoo/modules-webmake · GitHub

GWT has a cool feature named Code Splitting which loads parts of the code on demand. This is also appliable for webmake.

Here my idea:

// a.js:
var b = require("b");
// ...
bindEventHandlerForSomeRarEvent(function() {
  // the magic keyword "process.nextTick", which behaves normally in node.js
  // but so some special thing in webmake
  process.nextTick(function(err) {
    // Some code loading err handler
    // err is undefined in node.js
    if(err) { /* ... */ }
    var c = require("c"); // really big libary, which is only needed in this rar case
    // ...
  });
});

webmake core would provide the magic process.nextTick function to the compiled code.
process.nextTick do this in the compiled code:

• store the callback function
• adds a script tag to the document
• the script contains JSONP
• callback function (JSONP) adds some new modules to the context
• and calls the stored callback function.
• in case of an error (ex. timeout) the stored callback function is called with some kind of error parameter

Here is a quick hint on the compiled files:

// output.js
( /* core code */
({
  "a": function(/* ... */, process) {
     // a.js:
     var b = require("b");
     // ...
     bindEventHandlerForSomeRarEvent(function() {
       // the magic keyword, which behaves normally in node.js
       // but so some special thing in webmake
       process.nextTick(function(err) {
         // Some code loading err handler
         // err is undefined in node.js
         if(err) { /* ... */ }
         var c = require("c"); // really big libary, 
               // which is only needed in this rar case
         // ...
       });
     });
  },
  "b": function /* content of b.js */
  // here is no "c": !!
  // which saves bandwidth

// may be named "a.output.js":
webmake_magic_jsonp_function( // the jsonp callback function
"a", // origin of code loading (used for identifing the stored function)
{
  "c": function(/* ... */, process) {
    // the content of the big libary
  },
  "d": function(/* ... */, process) {
    // d.js is here a dependency of c.js (optional)
  }
}

This feature may makes the compile process a big complexer.

It may be useful for:

• loading parts of your webapp when accessing them
• loading polyfills only when necessary
• decrease startup time
