Cordova 2.4.0 or 2.5.0 or 2.6.0 and requirejs

Question

Cordova 2.4.0 and up supports AMD for loading into javascript. I am specifically looking to use Cordova 2.5.0 with the latest version of RequireJS, backbone, jquery, jquery mob

Answer 1

To use the lazy loading, one option is to use the domReady plugin from requireJS (cf. http://requirejs.org/docs/api.html#pageload).

Once requireJS has confirmed that the DOM was ready, you can then wait for the device to be ready using the regular deviceready listener.

require(['require/domReady','cordova/cordova-ios-2.5.0'], function (domReady) {
    domReady(function () {
    console.log("The DOM is ready - waiting for the device");
    document.addEventListener("deviceready", startWhenReady, false);
    }
 });

function startWhenReady()
{
  console.log("dom and device ready : we can start...");
  // your app
}

Worked for me!
