This is a great idea, it also means that we could have a setting for
specifying which libraries to add to the django namespace, depending
on what our apps and 3rdparty apps require.
To elaborate: Say that by default the django namespace has two
libraries inlcuded:
<script type='text/javascript' src='django/jquery.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='django/jquery_ui.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
var dj = {};
dj.jq = dj.jQuery = jQuery.noConflict(true);
</script>
Then individual apps could be given a way to add to this namespace,
following some convention, say if you want a specific version of
jQuery, say version 1.4, then you could add below the other stuff:
<script type='text/javascript' src='django/jquery_1.4.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
dj.jq_1_4 = jQuery.noConflict(true);
</script>
And if you wanted som specific version of mootools or other library
(which I don't know excactly how works, so I'm guessing):
<script type='text/javascript' src='django/mootools_1.2.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
dj.moo_1_2 = MooTools = $;
MooTools = $ = null; // or some equivalent of jQueries noConflict()
function
</script>
To make use of these namespaces the widgets would have to wrap their
library calls into closures, like so:
dj.jq(function($) {
// Here you can reference $ and be sure it's jQuery
$('#some_id').some_awesome_jquery_plugin_name();
});
I don't know if other libraries than jQuery have this closure support,
anyone?
Could we brainstorm on this a bit?
