Shuriken is a lightweight toolset for Javascript, written in coffeescript that provides a lightweight implementation of namespaces and a few other things (e.g. mixins) that I've found have simplified structured javascript development.
Using it is as simple as including the shuriken.js in your app and writing your code:
// declare BHM as a root namespace.
var BHM = Shuriken.as('BHM');
// Should print out true.
console.log(BHM instanceof Shuriken.Namespace);
BHM.withNS('Something', function(ns) {
ns.hello = true;
ns.sayHello = function() {
if(ns.hello) console.log("Hello there!");
};
ns.setup = function() {
ns.sayHello();
};
});
// On document load, unless BHM.autosetup is false,
// BHM.Something.setup() will be automatically called.
// Also,
BHM.Something.sayHello();
// will say hello manually. I'm sure you get the picture by now.
