meteor-angularite

A lightweight meteor-angular bridge, which only do angular bootstrap, nothing more.

Install

mrt add angularite

Design philosophy

angularite tries to be as small as possible.

It does only one simple thing: bootstrap angular.

Extendable with other addon packages.

• angular-ui-router
• angular-bootstrap
• spiderable-ui-router
• ...
• (consider writing you angular packages based on angularite)
• ...

So angularite is suitable for production:

• Choose packages depending on your needs.
• Will not waste precious loading time on JS code you never use.

API

Angularite.setTemplateDelimeter(start, end)

Set the delimeter used in template interpolation. The default is [[ and ]].

Angularite.module(modname, deps) -> mod

Define an angular module and it's dependencies. Returns an angular module object. Subsequent calls with same modname will return the defined module object. So you can not re-define dependencies after module has been initialized, it's the same behavior as angular.module().

mod.setTemplateDelimeter(start, end)

Override template delimeter in specific module.

Usage

var app = Angularite.module('myApp', [xxx', 'yyy']);

app.controller(...);
app.factory(...);
...

Features

• You can define multiple modules, which is the recommended way coding in angular.

Write your addon based on angularite

The best practise is make a weak dependency on angularite and other bridges.

Package.on_use(function(api) {
    api.use('angularite', 'client', {weak:true});
    api.use('ngMeteor', 'client', {weak:true});

    ...
});

Then in your addon you can check which bridge is currently using:

if (typeof(Angularite) !== 'undefined') {
    ...
} else if (typeof(ngMeteor) !== 'undefined') {
    ...
}

So your package can work with both angularite and ngMeteor, thus not bound to any specific bridge implementation.
