Mozu Require Compiler

3.0.2 verified Fri May 01 auth: no javascript deprecated

A customized version of the RequireJS optimizer (r.js) tailored for Mozu applications. This package provides a command-line tool for building AMD modules using the RequireJS module system. Version 3.0.2 is the latest release, but it is based on an older r.js codebase. It supports Node.js, Rhino/Java, and xpcshell environments. The primary use case is optimizing and combining AMD modules for browser delivery. Compared to the official requirejs package, this fork may include Mozu-specific patches or configuration defaults. However, it is largely unmaintained and users are advised to use the official `requirejs` package instead.

Common errors

error Error: Cannot find module 'mozu-require-compiler' ↓

cause Package not installed globally or locally.

fix

npm install -g mozu-require-compiler (deprecated) or use requirejs instead.

error TypeError: require(...) is not a function ↓

cause Using CommonJS require on AMD-only code.

fix

Use define/require in AMD style, or convert to CommonJS if using Node.

error r.js: command not found ↓

cause Official r.js not installed; mozu-require-compiler installs as 'r.js' but may not be in PATH.

fix

Ensure mozu-require-compiler is installed globally with -g flag.

error Error: Build config not found: /path/to/buildconfig.js ↓

cause Incorrect path or missing file.

fix

Provide absolute path or ensure file exists relative to working directory.

Warnings

deprecated mozu-require-compiler is a deprecated fork of r.js. Use the official requirejs package instead. ↓

fix npm uninstall -g mozu-require-compiler && npm install -g requirejs

breaking The package may lack updates for modern Node.js versions and may break > Node 10. ↓

fix Use requirejs package or update to a maintained AMD bundler.

gotcha The CLI command is `r.js` not `mozu-require-compiler` after installation. ↓

fix Run `r.js -v` instead of `mozu-require-compiler`.

gotcha The package may include Mozu-specific default configurations that differ from standard requirejs behavior. ↓

fix Review the default build config; override in your project's config file.

deprecated The last release (3.0.2) was published years ago; there is no active maintenance. ↓

fix Migrate to requirejs or a modern bundler like webpack or Rollup.

Install

npm install mozu-require-compiler

yarn add mozu-require-compiler

pnpm add mozu-require-compiler

Imports

requirejs
wrong
```
const r = require('mozu-require-compiler');
```
correct
```
import requirejs from 'requirejs';
```
Use official requirejs package; mozu-require-compiler is a fork.
r.js CLI
wrong
```
mozu-require-compiler -o buildconfig.js
```
correct
```
r.js -o buildconfig.js
```
CLI tool is called `r.js` not `mozu-require-compiler`. Install official requirejs globally.
define/require
wrong
```
const dep = require('dep')
```
correct
```
define(['dep'], function(dep) { ... })
```
AMD-style define/require, not CommonJS. This is standard AMD.

Quickstart

Install the official requirejs package, create a build configuration for your AMD project, and run the optimizer.

// Install official requirejs
npm install -g requirejs

// Build project using a build config
r.js -o buildconfig.js

// Example buildconfig.js
({
  appDir: './src',
  baseUrl: '.',
  dir: './dist',
  modules: [
    { name: 'main' }
  ],
  paths: {
    jquery: 'empty:'
  }
})
